Mint uses the Ubuntu repositories for the majority ( 95% + ) of it's packaging. The DE ( Desktop Environment ) has it's own Mint repo, the rest is Ubuntu. > > But: What should I recommend to Windows would-be WSPR users? > From where should those install WSPR? You have (3) Options here ( it's your choice ): [1] Install the posted version of WSPR [2] Install the WSJT-Suite. This is used for Installer and Build testing. It includes development branch builds for all the WSJT applications. Download: http://sourceforge.net/projects/jtsdk/files/win32/2.0.0/wsjt-suite/WSJT-Suite-1.0.24-Win32.exe/download [3] Install JTSDK v2.0.0 and build WSPR + the Win32 installer, which is very easy to do. You can also build all the other WSJT Applications + documentation with the SDK. It takes a few minutes to install, but it's fairly painless. NOTE: I am uploading JTSDK-2.0.0-Win32.exe as I write this, it is a big file, about 650+ MB compressed, about the same size as a Distro ISO image. JTSDK INSTALLATION * Download the installer from: -: http://sourceforge.net/projects/jtsdk/files/win32/2.0.0/JTSDK-2.0.0-Win32.exe/download * Run the installer as you normally would. * Follow the prompts * After the install finishes, update JTSDK by: - Start >> Programs >> JTSDK >> JTSDK Update BUILD WSPR + Win32 INSTALLER * The launch JTSDK-PY from the Desktop Icon * At the prompt, checkout WSPR with: checkout wspr * Build the Win32-Installer: build-wspr package * That will build the latest version of WSPR, and a Win32-Installer. Install Location: C:\JTSDK\wspr Installer Location: C:\JTSDK\wspr\package Installer Name: WSPR-4.0-win32.exe USING WSPR Win32: * Install WSPR using the newly created installer; or: * Run WSPR locally by running: C:\JTSDK\wspr\install\wspr.bat Either way, that should do it.

I'll work with Joe and see what can be done here, but as far as the PPA is concerned, 32/64 bit is taken care of automatically at installation. > > So, if someone has the ability and energy to upgrade the version and > the page pointing to it, this lowly WSPR promoter would applaud!
