error in the libasound2-dev install


Larry Springsteen
 

I am in the process of trying the install process described in the?? guide.
This is a Raspberry Pi3 with the latest January 28th 2022 Desktop OS install. When I install the libsound2 I get an error after about 850 lines
I get??dpkg: error processing package elpa-magit (--configure):
it gives several more errors referencing the same package.
This install script ends with
Errors were encountered while processing:
?elpa-magit
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

So I am at a loss for what to do next. This is a prerequisite for Direwolf (next step in the instructions)
Is it possible to manually install elpa-magit package and continue with Direwolf?

I am not very proficient with Linux so I could have missed something.

Hello Larry,

I looked over that documentation and while it's nicely written, it's recommending some obsolete things like removing pulseaudio,? I bet when you did that, it asked you to uninstall a lot more packages than what this guide shows as it wasn't written for the Raspberry Pi / Bullseye OS version).? If you search around using '"libasound2" error processing package "elpa-magit"', you'll see all kinds of various issues revolving some long standing bugs.? There are some possible workarounds but I don't know which ones will fix your specific issue.

Ps.? It should be mentioned that a LOT (aka many many people) have tried and failed to create a reliable packet station with Baefeng radios.? It really comes down to your specific radio and how well it was made at the time of it's manufacturing.? Search the Direwolf email archives for all the weird and inconsistent issues that people were combating.? Ultimately, once they replaced their radio with something a bit better made (or even a different Baofeng radio), all their issues went away.

The "elpa-magit" error is probably the result of trying to install "git-all" rather than just "git".

?

There are some other issues with the out of date build instructions.

?

Use the instructions from here instead:?? ??

Thanks much. It looks like it worked for the Libasound2. I'll continue with direwolf.
