Use the rigctld from wsjtx 2.3.1 until the current WSJT-X has a fix.

 Hi Saku, 
 
 the WSJT-X v2.5.0 RC1 RPM package for Fedora targets Fedora 34, which is why 
you are seeing dependency conflicts while attempting to install on Fedora 33. 
 
 Try starting rigctld with a --vfo argument.

Hi Bill!
 Thanks for reply!
 
 
WSJT Home page says:
    
   - Version 2.5.0-rc1
   
   - Debian, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, ... (64-bit):   wsjtx_2.5.0-rc1_amd64.deb
   - Fedora 33, RedHat, ... (64-bit):              wsjtx-2.5.0-rc1.x86_64.rpm
 
Maybe typo from copying previous texts (from 2.4.0) to 2.5.0rc1?

Using "--vfo" parameter with rigctld started from boot time script makes wsjtx 
2.5.0rc1 to work. Assume also 2.4.0 (self compiled) to work.
 But as side effect wsjtx 2.3.1, cqrlog, fldigi and qsstv stop working then.  
Rigctld returns something weird that they can not handle.
 
For wsjtx 2.3.1 it "turns red" and says "OOB" and reports rigcontrol error
 For cqrlog it shows rig frequency ok, but TRXControl can not change bands and 
modes.
 For fldigi it shows initial frequency but stuck up for long times and does not 
change mode or frequency
 For Qsstv it reports at start:
 

 
When change frequency:
 
 

 
And frequency does not change, although it shows current frequency ok, like 
cqrlog.
 
 
All these programs are configured to use rig "Net Hamlib rigctld" (model #2) 
and connect via loclhost:4532 to previously started (from boot up script) 
rigctld that communicates then with IC7300 via /dev/ttyUSB0
 
 
 
 
This parameter "--vfo" can not be used. It seems there is something that makes 
rigctld reply with way that is not backward compatible.
 
No good !
