[chirp_users] New Daily Build
Greetings,
A new daily build of CHIRP is available. This includes changes made directly to the tree yesterday, and may include additional features, bug fixes, and/or bugs. If you are interested in trying it, grab it from the following location:
http://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/daily-01202012/
A list of the changes included in this build (since the last daily) follows:
changeset: 1260:df1ee5859394 tag: tip user: Dan Smith dsmith@danplanet.com date: Thu Jan 19 08:49:20 2012 -0800 files: chirp/ft817.py description: Make the FT-817 driver declare the has_nostep_tuning feature. This prevents the UI from stopping a user from setting a frequency that doesn't match one of the declared tuning steps (such as 146.000001).
changeset: 1259:548af32e7aef user: Dan Smith dsmith@danplanet.com date: Thu Jan 19 08:49:20 2012 -0800 files: chirp/chirp_common.py chirpui/memedit.py description: Add "has_nostep_tuning" flag to RadioFeatures. This flag means that the destination radio does not require a tuning step matching the frequency of a given set_memory() operation. The radio may also use this flag to push step validation down into the driver layer instead of letting the UI make the determination.
changeset: 1258:5e341d821220 user: Dan Smith dsmith@danplanet.com date: Thu Jan 19 08:48:01 2012 -0800 files: build/version chirp/__init__.py description: Update the version number to: 1. Stay ahead of the current release 2. Indicate that it's a "dev" version (i.e. from the repo)
All,
Linux Fedora RPMs for the latest chirp-daily build are now available in the KK7DS Ham-Apps yum repository.
To add the repository as a software source, please follow these instructions: http://www.d-rats.com/component/content/article/30-d-rats-yum-repository/
I know it says d-rats, the chirp files are in the same repository
After setting up the repository, open the "Add/Remove Software" tool and go to "software sources" under the system menu. Make sure the "KK7DS Ham Apps Beta Software" line is checked (enabled).
For some reason, the Fedora package manager likes the beta versions better that the daily builds, so you may not see the daily release in the list the first time you update. If you don't see it, open a terminal window and enter: yum update chirp-daily_01202012 Or: yum update chirp-daily_01202012-1.fc16
That should install the latest daily build.
Happy Testing, Mike, N0SO
