Re: qtel/svxlink package updated and on mentors.debian.net

[David A Aitcheson <david.aitcheson@gmail.com>]

Felix,

Thank you for the reply.

I intend to update to the next LTS when it comes out so that should solve the missing package problem.

If Qtel is updated and not dependent on the missing packages then by all means I would appreciate the upload of an updated version even if it results in a failure as without independent testing by others with different configurations or machines all the bugs do not get found.

Otherwise v0.12.0 is working 'FB' for me at this time.

Hi Dave,

I would be happy to upload an updated version to my Lauchpad PPA while I work on getting 'svxlink' into the Debian archive.

Unfortunately that will not help you. Ubuntu Precise misses two prerequisites. You can find details in my messages to G4CLI on 'svxlink-devel'. We discussed it last weekend.

Chris is licensed. His call is KB2IQN.

Chris,

I am guessing that you do not have a Ham License. Where in the world are
you? Getting a Ham License is rather easy these days; and adds a whole
new dimension to the linux world!

I actively use Qtel/SvxLink on a daily basis, and am currently running
"Qtel v0.12.0 - Qt EchoLink client" as provided by "Version
11.11.1.1~precise~ppa1" obtained from
"LP-PPA-felix.lechner-hamradio/precise".

Where would I find the updated package to { download / (qmake /)
.configure / make / make install } and then proceed to use? While I only
use the Qtel client at this time I know others that use the
svxlink-server as the connection to the Internet for radios and repeater
systems.
