Re: [wsjt-devel] Candidate Release WSJT-X 3.0.0-rc1

I posted this on the wsjtgroup on groups.io yesterday... After no joy with the v2.7.x version to run the compiler to completion successfully, I finally have WSJTX v3.0.0 rc1 working on my LM v22.2 machines. Currently running the Decodes at Stage 3 with no apparent problems. With all the flaky band conditions, it's going to be difficult to realize any immediate benefit, but I'm sure that if the developers say it's better, then I believe them. CPU usage is very low, about what it was with Stages turned off. But, I'm not getting more than 50 decodes as I was a few days ago either. Others in the area that have not upgraded to v3.0.0, are seeing about the same numbers of decodes and signal strengths (when adjusted for location, antenna and HAAT) right now. Attempts with v2.7.x failed and the errors were ambiguous, at best, for a novice programmer. Previous version compiled and ran as expected. So yesterday I decided to give v3.0.0 a shot. During the first compile run, errors indicated that the "Qt5WebSockets" and "libqt5websockets5-dev" files were not found and the compiler told me this in pretty straight forward English terms. These were corrected (installed) and then the compile, build and install ran flawlessly. My desktop is a Ryzen 5600G with 32Gb RAM and 1Tb SSD on which the compile took about 8 minutes. However, my repurposed 10 year old ChromeBook Laptops took about 20 minutes each to complete successfully after installing the most likely, missing files. I don't know if my current LM v22.2 vs the LM v22.1 I had been trying the compile on, had anything do with yesterdays success, but whatever, all is good now. ----- 73's George - WB5JJJ HoIP - 100105 Cell - 479.857.7737 On Wed, Sep 17, 2025 at 10:03 AM Marco Calistri via wsjt-devel < wsj...@li...> wrote: > Good day! > > Anybody succeeded to compile WSJTX 3.0 on Linux? > > I've tried also the Uwe Enhanced version, but the cmake error has been the > same. > > May be just Windows and prepackaged Linux versions are being useable so > far...(?). > > 73, Marco PY1ZRJ > > Inviato da Outlook per Android <https://aka.ms/AAb9ysg> > ------------------------------ > *From:* Marco Calistri via wsjt-devel <wsj...@li...> > *Sent:* Tuesday, September 16, 2025 9:58:08 PM > *To:* wsj...@li... <wsj...@li...> > *Cc:* Marco Calistri <PY...@ou...> > *Subject:* Re: [wsjt-devel] Candidate Release WSJT-X 3.0.0-rc1 > > Hello, > > I attempted to compile the new source WSJTX 3.0.0-rc1 code as always I did > so far, but now cmake is giving an error. > > This is the sequence of commands I alway launch (in this specific case I > added the POLICY_VERSION=3.5): > > tar -xzvf /home/marco/Scaricati/wsjtx-3.0.0-rc1.tgz -C > /home/marco/WSJT-X_build/build/ > cd /home/marco/WSJT-X_build/build/wsjtx-3.0.0-rc1/ > /usr/bin/cmake -Dhamlib_INCLUDE_DIRS=/usr/local/include \ > -Dhamlib_LIBRARIES=/usr/local/lib64/libhamlib.so \ > -Dhamlib_LIBRARY_DIRS=/usr/local/lib64 \ > -DWSJT_GENERATE_DOCS=OFF \ > -DWSJT_SKIP_MANPAGES=ON \ > -DWSJT_QMAP=NO \ > -Werror=deprecated-declarations \ > -Wno-error \ > -DCMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5 > -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/marco/WSJT-X_build/.wsjtx . > > This is the answer of cmake: > > CMake Warning: > No source or binary directory provided.
