That's a good idea.  The diffoscope results in 100MB of diff, almost all
of it in the resulting binaries, so I'm opting to focus on the build
environments for now.  There are a number of differences, most of which
appear to be benign.  The only significant ones are the GCC-10 -> GCC-11
transition and hamlib 4.1 -> 4.3

If anyone would like to take a look at the buildinfo from the archive
and locally build packages or the full diffoscope between the binary
packages, those files can be found here:

Yeah, I was surprised when it occurred for me.  Of course, I'm making an
assumption that the behavior I saw is the same as that from the original
bug report.

The fact that the "Tune" button couldn't even key my radio, despite the
fact that I'm using CAT, makes me suspect that I might have found a issue
with running a binary compiled against hamlib 4.1 against a system with
4.3 installed.  That upload was on 2021-10-12, which would explain why I
didn't see it a week ago; I updated my system on 2021-10-16.

But that still doesn't explain why you didn't see the problem.  Hmm... 

Thank you,
tony
