Today I took a Tarball called gMFSK which was last checked out on Red
Hat 9, and with the help of many on this list I ./configure -- xxx
--xxxx and when that went clean I used "make" and that errored out
because I was missing a stupid thing I yummed from Fedora. Then as root
I make install and that worked. Right now it is using the sound card to
decode PSK-31 from my radio on 14.070 MHz. This was the fastest I ever
got this working on a new Linux version.
You can be sure when Hemmi wrote this software Fedora was not
invented. And be sure that F7 is Linux first and Fedora for applications
and such second. I need help with both Linux and Fedora Core 6
applications and I sure get them here :-)
Hi Karl,
Community members who hang out here much appreciate the positive vibe :)
Sounds like a cool piece of software. Have you had any experience in
packaging software into an rpm ?
It isn't really that hard to do {but can be intimidating}, and it seems
that there are already rpms for other distributions that could be used
as a starting point.
What would you get out of it ?
In the future you or any fedora user would be able to:
yum install gMFSK and the software would "just work".
While I am willing to help, I don't have the hardware to test with, so
you would need to be involved.
