dump1090-fa Debian/Raspbian packages

This is a fork of dump1090-mutability customized for use within FlightAware's PiAware software.

It is designed to build as a Debian package.

Building under stretch

$ sudo apt-get install build-essential debhelper librtlsdr-dev pkg-config dh-systemd libncurses5-dev libbladerf-dev
$ dpkg-buildpackage -b

Building under jessie

Dependencies - bladeRF

You will need a build of libbladeRF. You can build packages from source:

$ git clone https://github.com/Nuand/bladeRF.git  
$ cd bladeRF  
$ git checkout 2017.12-rc1  
$ dpkg-buildpackage -b

Or Nuand has some build/install instructions including an Ubuntu PPA at https://github.com/Nuand/bladeRF/wiki/Getting-Started:-Linux

Or FlightAware provides armhf packages as part of the piaware repository; see https://flightaware.com/adsb/piaware/install

Dependencies - rtlsdr

This is packaged with jessie. sudo apt-get install librtlsdr-dev

Dependencies - LimeSDR

You will need a build of LimeSuite.
See detailed instruction on the official Wiki how to build and install it.

Actually building it

Nothing special, just build it (dpkg-buildpackage -b)

Building under wheezy

First run prepare-wheezy-tree.sh. This will create a package tree in package-wheezy/. Build in there (dpkg-buildpackage -b)

The wheezy build does not include bladeRF and LimeSDR support.

Building manually

You can probably just run "make" after installing the required dependencies. Binaries are built in the source directory; you will need to arrange to install them (and a method for starting them) yourself.

make BLADERF=no will disable bladeRF support and remove the dependency on libbladeRF.

make RTLSDR=no will disable rtl-sdr support and remove the dependency on librtlsdr.

make LIMESDR=no will disable LimeSDR support and remove the dependency on libLimeSuite.
