Direwolf install fails, needs Autogen.sh

 

I figured it was time to get rid of my KPC-2 for packet and go with Direwolf. I'm running a Pi-3. I went ahead and installed Direwolf and forgot to install Hamlib first. The Direwolf manual says that I can still salvage things by doing the following:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Boiled down version if you don¡¯t want to read the instructions:
cd ~
sudo apt-get install automake libtool texinfo
git clone git://hamlib.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/hamlib/hamlib
cd hamlib
sh autogen.sh
make
make check
sudo make install
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
?
Everything was good until I hit the:
?
sh autogen.sh
?
The first time I tried, it failed and couldn't find autogen. So, I installed autogen (command line, in terminal) and tried again. It still comes up with the same error. I looked and find autogen in two directories: usr/share and usr/bin. I couldn't find the script, sh autogen.sh anywhere.
?
Should I just wipe out the whole SD card and start over, or is there a way to get through making autogen run?
?
I'm no expert, but I will try things.

What radio are you using? Unless it's a very new radio, you can probably just install the hamlib version from your distro's packaging system. From there, direwolf should be happy.

I finally gave up and installed the W3DJS image that includes all of the above ham radio software. Seems to work fine and ended that frustration. Tnx.

Dennis,

Yes, building DireWolf can be a bit of a challenge -- it tends to want to integrate with certain versions of gpsd, and not others.

I'm glad that using HamPi worked for you. Let me know if I may be of further assistance. Good luck and 73,
