Has anyone installed or rebuilt wsjtx on the new Debian release 9.0,
codename "stretch"?
Stretch dropped some packages that weren't being supported upstream,
apparently including libreadline6 that wsjtx has as a dependency.
libreadline5 is still present in stretch.
Hi Phil,
I don't think WSJT-X itself has a libreadline dependency but Hamlib does
I believe. If you are using the DEB file from the WSJT-X home page or
from the SourceForge files area you should note that package is released
only as a stop gap until our Linux package maintainers get there thing
done. It is built for the current LTS Ubuntu distribution (16.04 LTS)
and s not necessarily expected to work on other distributions.
The source package we release should build locally on other Linux
distros, have you tried that? You may have to install some dependencies
of course.

See INSTALL in the archive for installation details.
