I have sent many patches upstream to the Hamlib team which are not yet released. I have a fork of the Hamlib repository where I publish the latest and greatest including patches not yet submitted to the Hamlib team.
https://sourceforge.net/u/bsomervi/hamlib/ci/master/tree/ You need to build that yourself if you are not able to use the JTSDK-NIX package. The 'integration' branch is the code you should be building. Your best option which should save a lot of hassle is to checkout the WSJT-X super build project: https://sourceforge.net/p/wsjt/wsjt/HEAD/tree/branches/wsjtx-superbuild/ and use that to build the right Hamlib and then WSJT-X.
