[drats_users] D-RATS on a Raspberry Pi

[Craig Gunther]

That's a much better solution than the hack I did.  I just reflashed wheezy from the zip file and followed your instructions and everything works great.

Thanks for writing it up in your HOW-TO!

Hi Craig,

I was able to install the release version from the Raspbian repository with no problem...

... other than needing to install python-glade2 via an extra command. I just put together a HOWTO document:

I see yours online now.

I downloaded the latest daily and am currently running it from source.

Mike, N0SO

Hello John,
 
I'm running D-RATS 0.3.3 on my Raspberry Pi (2012-12-16-wheezy-raspbian.zip).  I had to trick it a bit and tell it to use the lucid  code.  I did this by creating /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-hams-updates-ppa-lucid.list by hand.  Then I did a 'sudo apt-get udpate', followed by 'sudo apt-get  install d-rats'.  I also had to manually grab gtk.glade: 'sudo apt-get install python-glade2'.  That's it.
 
If you connect to the ref.d-rats.com ratflector you should see me out there: KE7YLZPI.  The ubuntu-hams-updates-ppa-lucid.list file is in my Files area if you want to copy it.  I'll leave it up and running tonight.
 
- Craig

I am trying to load D-RATS on my new Raspberry Pi.  Following the instructions on the website for the apt-get repository on Launchpad, I get the error that it can’t find a distribution template after typing the  “sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-hams-updates/ppa” command.  Am I doing something wrong or is it different for the Pi?  
  
Also, has anyone installed D-RATS on the Pi?  I’m looking to run a Ratflector on it.
