  • gr-osmosdr in Debian: patches

    From asciiwolf@seznam.cz@21:1/5 to All on Fri Nov 3 14:30:01 2023
    Hello!

    Is there any chance the following two upstream commits could be added as patches to the Debian gr-osmosdr package?

    https://gitea.osmocom.org/sdr/gr-osmosdr/commit/b581c621fe05968bc5b5e7be24ff36cfc7fad881
    https://gitea.osmocom.org/sdr/gr-osmosdr/commit/9c09c90d920dd4906fa8bb9d8443eef84d2565a3

    The first commit fixes gain setting on SDRplay devices, the second commit adds support for the newly released (and already very popular) RTL-SDR.com V4 dongle.

    Thanks a lot!

    Regards,
    Daniel

    Ideally, gr-osmosdr would just release a new version that includes
    these patches.

    Hello,




    I have already contacted them, but got no reply so far. They are probably
    not interested in releasing a new version at the moment since there were not any changes except the two patches and some build fixes since the last
    release and gr-osmosdr seems to have new versions usually released once a
    year or two.

    Hello Apostolos,

    Thanks for the instructions, I appreciate it, however I am not interested in building the updated/patched package myself. I am interested in these
    changes being available for other Debian/Ubuntu users and especially getting into Ubuntu 22.04.

    Hello Daniel,

    it is actually quite easy to build a package yourself:

    $ dget https://deb.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gr-osmosdr/gr-osmosdr_0.2.4-1.
    dsc

    $ cd gr-osmosdr-0.2.4/debian/patches

    $ wget https://github.com/osmocom/gr-osmosdr/commit/9c09c90d920dd4906fa8bb9d8443
    eef84d2565a3.patch
    -O rtlsdr4.patch

    $ wget https://github.com/osmocom/gr-osmosdr/commit/b581c621fe05968bc5b5e7be24ff
    36cfc7fad881.patch
    -O sdrplay_gain.patch

    $ echo 'rtlsdr4.patch' >> series

    $ echo 'sdrplay_gain.patch' >> series

    $ cd ../../

    $ dch -i
    (write some comments if you like, otherwise save and exit.)

    $ sudo apt install libfreesrp-dev libhidapi-dev libxtrx-dev python3-
    soapysdr

    $ dpkg-buildpackage

    $ sudo dpkg -i ../gr-osmosdr_0.2.4-1.1_amd64.deb ../libgnuradio- osmosdr0.2.0_0.2.4-1.1_amd64.deb

    Oops, I meant Ubuntu 24.04, not 22.04. :-)
