Re: Bug#907576. ITP: dream --A Software Digital Radio Mondiale



Hello Apostolos and Julian

Reading the recent posts I might add as follows concerning Debian:

-My debian/control file includes some more Build-Depends than you have listed. Also I believe 'libsndfile-dev' should be 'libsndfile1-dev'; 'libpcap-dev' is transitional and is followed by 'libpcap0.8-dev'. I will add 'libfdk-aac-dev', but as noted the Debian is old and we may not have full support for awhile. Otherwise these are all in Debian repository for both stable (Stretch) and testing (Buster). My Qt depends are different so I may need to change to yours or whatever.

-A Debian-Hams maintainer has indicated that a GNU build system is not required for Debian (I had assumed it was). So it is acceptable to build Dream for Debian using it's conventional build process. Nevertheless I will continue to retain GNU build files in the Debian branch in case someone needs them. But they will likely require more work. That said, 'autotools-dev' as included in the debian/control file is likely unnecessary.

-Yes I believe I have a SourceForge account, but I've never uploaded or worked on line before. So expect a learning curve. If you wish to establish a Debian branch for me go ahead and I will try to upload the Debian specific stuff. Then we can just work this on line. I presume you will branch from 1151 or so, and thus I may need some changes from 1021. Anyway, we'll figure it out as we get there.
