Hi !

During weekend I tested latest rpm with laptop that I do not normally use at ham shack (that has F27 and self compiled wsjtx).

F28 was upgraded during last week, so everything should be nearly then last packages. Wsjtx was:  wsjtx-1.9.0-0.3.rc4.fc28 / jskarvad / 2018-05-02 10:02:01 from src.fedoraproject.org

Found 2 issues:

1st: With my home made rig interface (cheap Chinese usb2 hub with rs232-usb and usb sound card) I found out that pulse audio selected from wsjt-x setup did not work on TX side. RX was ok, but no sound for TX. (I have similar interface in use with shack PC, F27. It works both TX & RX set as "pulse". May be better not to upgrade that one!!)

Change to alsa-USB_soundcard-output and program restart did open also TX audio. Tested few times and it is true, no TX audio with "pulse" and every time program restart was needed to get alsa side to work after change from "pulse". I did not had time to expand test to laptops (Lenovo X201) own sound device. I'll do that later.

2nd: was that every time program was closed it did not wipe lock file (and the wsjtx folder) from /tmp. Just saying that "Another instance may be running, try to remove stale lock file?"  Any answer to this (Retry, No, Yes) did not lead to anything.  File and folder from /tmp had to be removed manually to get program running again.

Removed WSJT-X folder from ~/.local/share did not make any difference. I forgot that there is also ini file in ~./config, so it was not removed. Both files were left from wsjt-x running on earlier F26 version.

Testing continues...
