This is NOT the official Linux AX.25 software suite (libax25, ax25-apps, and ax25-tools). The official home is hosted by the Linux Ham group at http://www.linux-ax25.org/wiki/Main_Page That is where official development should take place. However Lee Woldanski <ve7fet@tparc.org> performed a remarkable job reorganizing AX.25 suite in order to facilitate packaging on many distro. Lee also fixed a number of bugs. Bernard Pidoux <f6bvp@amsat.org> Wed, Oct 25 2017 ***Building from Source*** See the "Releases" link on this page to download the current source tarballs. ***Debian Package Building*** You should be able to build a Debian package (.deb) for any of libax25 (will also build a -dev package with header files), ax25tools, or ax25apps. You will need the necessary Debian package building tools installed. From inside the chosen folder, run "debuild -us -uc" to build an un-signed package. Other useful commands are: fakeroot debian/rules clean fakeroot debian/rules build Note that the libax25 package conflicts with some files found in libc6-dev. The offending files are: netax25/ax25.h netrose/rose.h netrom/netrom.h Those files belong to libax25, and as such, this package is marked to replace them. Those files will be overwritten by the ones found in the libax25-dev package.
