Re: [Hamlib-developer] Hamlib 4.6.4 release

[Dave B. <g8k...@go...>]

It was indeed the 4.7~git release that needed the ./bootstrap.


The problem I have just now, is with grig I think.  (Whatever 
/dev/ttyUSB 'device' I specify, it always tries to open /dev/tty0 !)

The repo version is very old, and the current source refuses to build.

Cheers All.

Dave G8KBV.
