Also, they should be almost drop-in\ncompatible, but I ran all of this on a Linux Mint install, not Ubuntu. Mint\n(IMHO) is a little more friendlier than Ubuntu, but is a direct fork of\nUbuntu so you shouldn't have any compatibility issues.\n\nFirst, install git and some dependencies. This assumes GPredict is already\ninstalled.\n\n*sudo apt-get install git libglib2.0-dev libtool intltool\nlibcurl4-gnutls-dev libgoocanvas-dev*\n\nThen you'll want to grab the code.\n\n*git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/gpredict/code\n<http://git.code.sf.net/p/gpredict/code> gpredict-code*\n\nThis will create a new directory (probably gpredict-code); you'll want to\nmove into that directory.\n\n*cd gpredict-code *\n\nNext, run the autogen script. This prepares the code for installation.\n\n*./autogen.sh*\n\nAssuming that runs all the way through without exiting for errors, run\n\n*./configure*\n\nthen\n\n*make*\n\nand finally\n\n*sudo make install*\n\nAssuming everything goes according to plan, you should be able to launch\nthe program by running\n\n*/usr/local/bin/gpredict*\n\nMake sure it's the correct version by going to Help > About GPredict.\n\"GPREDICT 1.3.242-b445\" is the text you're looking for.\n\nFinally, let's replace the out-of-date binary with this one. This probably\nisn't the best way to do it, but it works.\n\n\n\n*sudo mv /usr/local/bin/gpredict /usr/bin/*\nThat should do it for updating it to the latest version.\n\nOther changes that were helpful:\n> Duplex TRX & Sub Up / Main Down in the interfaces prompt\n> Modules > Layout > Select Layout \"All Views (Wide)\" (Requires restart of\nprogram)\n\nAnyway, good luck. Let me know how it turns out.\n\n73 de KE5GDB\n\n\n\nOn Sat, Jun 21, 2014 at 12:53 PM, Richard Lawn <[email protected]> wrote:\n\n> Rats! It's been a struggle up to this point.
