All,
Linux Fedora RPMs for the latest chirp-daily build are now available in
the KK7DS Ham-Apps yum repository.
To add the repository as a software source, please follow these
instructions:
http://www.d-rats.com/component/content/article/30-d-rats-yum-repository/
I know it says d-rats, the chirp files are in the same repository ;-)
After setting up the repository, open the "Add/Remove Software" tool and
go to "software sources" under the system menu. Make sure the "KK7DS Ham
Apps Beta Software" line is checked (enabled).
For some reason, the Fedora package manager likes the beta versions
better that the daily builds, so you may not see the daily release in
the list the first time you update. If you don't see it, open a terminal
window and enter:
yum update chirp-daily_05272011-1.fc14
Or, If you are running Fedora fc13 or earlier, enter:
yum update chirp-daily_05272011-1.fc13
That should install chirp-daily_05272011. After that, you should get the
daily builds automatically after they are added to the repository.
Until we get the rpm packaging automated, Fedora Linux RPMs of the daily
builds will be made on a *weekly* schedule - usually on Fridays. More
often if something significant is added or fixed.
Think of them as a summary of the past week's daily builds!
Happy Testing!
Mike, N0SO
