Hello Chet,
I have gone ahead and upgraded to 22.04 and RC4 now installs and appears to be
working normally.
The GUI upgrade process did not work for me on either computer I am upgrading,
so the terminal commands were used instead.
I would respectfully suggest that since RC4 does not work with Ubuntu 20.04 and
that a upgrade to 22.04 is needed, that it be so statedon the WSJT Home Page.
Such a change might prevent someone else from having the same problem that I
did. Because it indicated a upgrade to RC4 that was for Ubuntu 20.04, I went
ahead and downloaded it. Had I seen that RC4 required 22.04, I would have
upgradedfirst, as I have done before, then downloaded RC4.
Thank you very much for your help and pointing out the need to upgrade. I
often delay upgrading I must admit.

Hi Andy,
Thank you. I believe the reason you are missing some packages for installing
wsjtx-2.6.0-rc4 is because we have updated the release package for amd64 to run
on the latest bullseye releases from Debian. The older releases while still LTE
are losing support for the lgpl license from Qt very quickly (see Less Love for
FOSS Qt Users – Burkhard Stubert (embeddeduse.com) .) The os-release info you
sent me indicates you are still using Ubuntu 20.04 (Fossa). That release will
not support Qt 5.15.x because the package support is not available. It is
possible to build that Qt release for Qt5.12.x from Qt sources, but I do not
recommend that as it sometimes fails. My recommendation is that you upgrade
Ubuntu Fossa to Ubuntu Jammy Jellyfish 22.04.1 first, then retry the download
and install the amd64 debian package from the pulsar site as indicated in the
release notes that were posted.
To upgrade to Jammy Jellyfish, this site gives good instructions :How To
Upgrade Ubuntu To 22.04 LTS Jammy Jellyfish - From 21.10 and 20.04
(linuxconfig.org) . I would suggest using the GUI process as shown later in the
article unless you wish to run the command line process for upgrading.
I have been using this release for some time. It appears solid and it appears
to run faster to me. It also becomes easier to keep Ubuntu up to date as they
will automatically notify you of upgrade availability with a down arrow in the
upper right area of the window gui. Please let me know how things go and if I
can be of further assistance.

Hi Chet,
Ok, managed to create the file you asked for. Please keep in mind that RC4
never installed, so I believe this file is related to RC3.
Hope this helps. File is below.

Hi Andy,
Please open a terminal window and run this command: sudo apt show wsjtx -a >
wsjtx-dep. You will be required to enter your password next. Once the command
prompt returns, please send the file named wsjtx-dep to me (if you run this
from your home directory, the file will show up there.) After I look at those
results, I will give you some next steps to try.

Hi Chet,
Well, I guess I am not really sure what to do with the list of dependencies or
how I might proceed from here.

Hello,
Attempted to install2.6.0-rc4 amd64.deb on my Ubuntu 20.04LTS system. Got
following error on install:
Error: Cannot satisfy dependencies.
There are no details given. Not sure how to run this in a terminal to provide
more information to the team.
First time this has happened, usually all dependencies are satisfied on
install.
