I updated
my Linux boxes, Debian 7.3 to 7.4, Fedora 18 to 20, Ubuntu 13.10 to
14.04 LTS and Centos in 6.5 final.
Cant go to Centos 7 as they only
releasing a 64bit version, will get a 64bit box when the 32 bit server
dies.
Wondering what new adventures lay ahead trying to get WSJT and
WSPR compiled and running on these latest Linux releases ...... mmmmmm
I did download the latest offering of WSJT from John Nagotch, to suit Ubuntu 14.05 "Trusty",
WSJT 9.7 r3639, John kindly compiles different versions of WSJT and WSJTX for various releases of Ubuntu, which makes for a quick download and install for those not in a position to compile WSJT/WSJTX for Ubuntu, you can obtain them from this URL https://launchpad.net/~jnogatch/+ppa-packages
It
installed fine, runs fine, but the audio interfaces that were compiled
into this binary dont work with my Dell Inspiron 6000 notebook, so its back to downloading from berlios repository and try again to compile it myself, although, I will try the qmake-qt4 as this seemed to be the new path for doing a make, using the development suite from http://qt-project.org/ as mentioned in the WSJT Development forum discussions.
