radiotray-ng?

[thohi]

I'm wondering if there's way to get radiotray-ng up and running in 24.04.

The latest package (v.0.2.8) https://github.com/ebruck/radiotray-ng/releases dates from 2022 and is for Ubuntu 22.04, but even with the remark

# For Ubuntu 23.10 and newer install:
libayatana-appindicator3-dev libwxgtk3.2-dev​

I only get a bunch of crap pulled in the system that doesn't end up with a successfull install.

Ideas?

Those deps are for compiling the source code.
You need all of the items mentioned in the first line, plus the ones you posted here, then follow the directions below.

But there aint no .deb for 24.04, right?

[claydoh]

Not unless the developers or someone makes one.
The build instructions seem pretty straightforward and simple, as far as this sort of thing goes. It actually builds a 'personal' deb.

Well...

I get up to the dpkg step, but that one fails with

dpkg: Abhängigkeitsprobleme verhindern Konfiguration von radiotray-ng:
radiotray-ng hängt ab von libjsoncpp1; aber:
 Paket libjsoncpp1 ist nicht installiert.
radiotray-ng hängt ab von libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-0v5; aber:
 Paket libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-0v5 ist nicht installiert.
​

The supsequent

sudo apt-get install -f​

then removes everything again

Translation:

dpkg: Dependency issues prevent configuration of radiotray-ng:
radiotray-ng depends on libjsoncpp1; but:
Package libjsoncpp1 is not installed.
radiotray-ng depends on libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-0v5; but:
Package libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-0v5 is not installed.

[Snowhog]

You can try installing the identified dependencies first.

[claydoh]

Package libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-0v5 is not installed.

libwxgtk3.0 is replaced by 3.2 in later *buntu releases, so the deb won't work there.

that means KO for radiotray-ng
