Hi David,
thanks for the dependent package name updates, and well done!
You need to install the runtime pulseaudio plugin for Qt:
sudo apt install libqt5multimedia5-plugins
to get pulse audio to hook up with WSJT-X, as noted here in the WSJT-X
User Guide:

Hi Bill,
I figured out the few differences in the pre-install package names for
Ubuntu 20.04 if anyone is interested:
svn -> subversion
libusb-1.0.0-dev -> libusb-1.0-0-dev
libqt5libserialport5-dev -> libqt5serialport5-dev
So, these three lines should install all the pre-installs for Ubuntu
20.04:
sudo apt install build-essential gcc clang g++ gfortran cmake git
asciidoc texinfo subversion
sudo apt install qtmultimedia5-dev qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools
sudo apt install libfftw3-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libqt5serialport5-dev
Then I just followed the instructions and everything built.
On launch, the program starts but has three sound I/O errors:
"An error opening the audio output device has occurred."
"Requested output audio format is not supported on device."
"Requested input audio format is not supported on device."
After clicking "OK" the program looks fine like everything is fine. I
just figured that I needed to go into settings and configure the sound
I/O.
The problem is that Soundcard Input: and Output: in Settings are blank
and have no drop down choices. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hi David,
it's not very difficult, start with the self contained sources
tarball from the WSJT-X project web page, unpack it and read the
file INSTALL at the top level.

Thanks Bill. I might take a crack at building it...

Hi David,
as noted on the WSJT-X web page
https://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/wsjtx.html and in
the README info on the project SourceForge files area
https://sourceforge.net/projects/wsjt/files/wsjtx-2.2.0-rc1/
, the Debian style packages target Ubuntu 18.04. Although
Ubuntu 20.04 is released there is no easy upgrade path for
users until the 20.04.1 release in a couple of months, until
then we will target the 18.04.x LTS release.
The Ubuntu package maintainers for WSJT-X will probably make
packages available soon that are suitable for various
versions. In the meantime you can build WSJT-X from sources.

As a follow-on, I did install "gfortran": sudo apt install
gfortran and got this:
Reading package lists... Done

gfortran is already the newest version (4:9.3.0-1ubuntu2).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
However I still get the error: "Depends: libgfortran3 (>=
4.8.2) but it is not installable" when I try and install wsjt-x
Thanks!

I'm a little lost as to how to get libgfortran3.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
