Hi Chuck, Thanks for the input. If your serious about helping with Debian/Ubuntu packaging, the fasted way ( bit of a misnomer there, as it's definitely not fast ) to get updated packages into Ubuntu >> Mint, is by way of Debian repos.
Kamal (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KamalMostafa) and a couple others are our primary Debian up-loaders. You have to be a formal Debian Maintainer or Debian Developer in order to upload directly to the Debian repo's. There are two primary groups focused on Debian/Ubuntu Ham Radio app packaging (both are always looking for folks to help out): Ubuntu Hams........: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-hams-devel Debian Hams........: https://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-hamradio/ Debian Hames Wiki..:https://wiki.debian.org/DebianHams On the script front, I've setup a few small things to help folks build on Debian, Ubuntu and Mint. Your more than welcome to check out the code there and if you'd like, start working on updates ( the more help we can get the better ). Site...: http://sourceforge.net/projects/jtsdk/ Code ..: http://sourceforge.net/p/jtsdk/jtsdk/HEAD/tree/trunk/linux For Fedora, traditionally, Richard Shaw has been the goto developer for all things RH/Fedora related, at least since I've been involved. You may want to contact him with regards to packaging for RH, Fedora, EPL's etc. Richard's COPA Site: http://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/hobbes1069 See additional comments below.

I need the actual Fedora distribution package names to create a fedora.m4 macro for the JTSDK build scripts. I suppose we could look through Richards COPA packaging and get most of what we need there. I've just not had the time to chase it. Regarding KVASD Binary installation; we have a small package that's been tested on Fedora by a few folks, but, the more testing we can do the better. The source code is part of the WSJT project: Site..: http://sourceforge.net/projects/wsjt/ Code..: http://sourceforge.net/p/wsjt/wsjt/HEAD/tree/trunk/kvasd-binary/kvasd-installer/ It's fairly simple, it installs the right binary based on $ARCH (32/64). In any case, wherever you can assist, I'm sure the help will be welcome. > Here's the simple script: > > wsjtxsvn.sh > > #!/bin/bash > # wsjtxsvn.sh > > # Linux wsjtx v1.5.0 -devel > # svn checkout for the latest version > > # KVASD Requirements > # GCC C Library 32 bit > # libc.so.6 > # libm.so.6 > # libgcc_s.so.1 > > # Quad-Precision Math Library > # libquadmath.so.0 > > # For qt5 > # qt5-qtmultimedia-devel > # qt5-qtserialport-devel > > # hamlib3 etc. > > # For the manuals > # asciidoc > > # Install the kvasd binary previously obtained from sourceforge. > # http://sourceforge.net/p/wsjt/wsjt/HEAD/tree/trunk/kvasd-binary/ > > #cp kvasd /usr/local/bin > #chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/kvasd > > rm -rf wsjtx > svn co svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/wsjt/wsjt/branches/wsjtx > cd wsjtx > cmake . > make > make install > > --- > > 73, Chuck > http://wa7oef.net > <snip> 73's Greg, KI7MT ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BPM Camp - Free Virtual Workshop May 6th at 10am PDT/1PM EDT Develop your own process in accordance with the BPMN 2 standard Learn Process modeling best practices with Bonita BPM through live exercises http://www.bonitasoft.com/be-part-of-it/events/bpm-camp-virtual- event?utm_ source=Sourceforge_BPM_Camp_5_6_15&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=VA_SF _______________________________________________ wsjt-devel mailing list wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wsjt-devel
