[wsjt-devel] JTSDK v2.0.0-B2 for Linux Available For Build Testing
Hello All, I've been testing JTSDK on Linux (mainly Ubuntu) for some time now(as have opthers) and have finally gotten around to adding a tar.gzfile for folks to test out. Bare in mind, there is allot of work to do stilland this should be considered a work in progress, so expect a fewanomalies at first. There is a short README and INSTALL.txt file included in the archive. Iwon't spell out the install instructions here, as I'd like to get feedbackon the INSTALL.txt and process as a whole to see if things needfixing / updating / edits or whatever the case may be. Documentation isminimal at present, but will eventually land in the WSJT dev-guide whenappropriate. Due to package variations between the various Distro versions, there isno immediate plan to create distribution files (.deb, .rpm etc) as thepackage management is being dealt with by autotools.

Re: [wsjt-devel] JTSDK v2.0.0-B2 for Linux Available For Build Testing
Hi Alan, I can't say exactly when, but CentOS/RHEL/Fedora/Suse are on the list to do. Most of the distro watch data sites I follow put those distros in the top 10 for usage hits per day. The primary goal of the JTSDK(s) to enable the use of Joe's applications on as many platforms as possible. It only makes sense to get the major rpm based distros up and running as well. My primary use distro is Debian based, which is why I chose Debian/Ubuntu/Mint flavors first. That is not to say one is better or worse than the other, rather, that is what I use so it made sense for me to start there. Everyone has their favorite Linux Distro, but personally, I think we should focus our resources on what will have the biggest positive impact for end users first, then start working down to sub-class distros. There is allot of work to do in making the current JTSDK structure truly robust. Another goal I have is to make JTSDK (for Linux) easy to expand through the use of Autotools M4 modules at configuration time ( --with-distro= .. ..) and the remainder of the scripts remain focused on applications build needs. This may not be the best approach, but it's a start and will, if managed properly, provide a consistent and repeatable application build. If anyone wants to join in and help, by all means, make yourself / intension's known. I understand the attraction to RDP, however, RDP or in the case of Linux, XRDP, has no bearing / relevance to the application(s). As such, XRDP is not, nor will it be, a build dependency any time soon, if ever, unless Joe wants to incorporate it's use somehow. JTSDK for Linux has very few core dependencies; Dialog, Bash, Coreutils, AWK, Perl, most of which are installed by default or available through the distro package manager with minimal fuss. What would be most helpful would be to; 1. Provide a list of build dependencies for a given Distro / Version combination based on a new standard desktop installation; one that an average Ham Operator would install and / or use with Joe's applications. This list should cover what is needed to build each of the 5 applications, runtime dependencies, the default package manager and any special compiler needs / flags. 2. Look at / read through the ../src/m4 modules and put together a module that works for a given Distro / Version. Adding the distro case to configure.ac is fairly simple. All that is left at that point is testing from a clean install. I have a Fedora 2x installation on one my partitions, but I've just not had a chance to work with it much and I've not used Fedora consistently as a disto since the Core-4 days??? To say I'm a bit rusty with it is an understatement, however, I do have have a fare amount of exposure to CentOS servers for what that's worth. Whatever valid information you can provide will only help in adding the rpm based distro's into the SDK allot faster. 73's Greg, KI7MT On 02/16/2015 09:23 PM, Alan VK2ZIW wrote: Hi Greg, Can I be a real pain and ask for Fedora and/or Centos to be included?
