Bug Description

SDR++ Nightly Build (currently 1.2.0) doesn't have support for RTL-SDR on .deb files for Linux
Before this download from Nightly, it's working fine on older version instaled before 2024-09-10
Same error on Linux Mint 22
I did build from sources and the RTL-SDR support return and it's working again
MacOs build is working fine with RTL-SDR support

Steps To Reproduce

Download SDR++ Nightly Build (currently 1.2.0) for Ubuntu (sdrpp_ubuntu_noble_amd64.deb)
Install
Run

Works fine here, make sure you're up to date. (tested on a clean ubuntu 24.04 install)

mrgadotti commented 2 months ago

I did try on another VM from Linux Mint 21.2, with clean install, same error. The RTL-SDR doesn't appear on the list... Interesting that it only occurs on Linux, on MacOS it works fine, list the RTL-SDR

Build from yesterday, 2024-09-10

You're probably using the wrong deb.

Link from install on clean Ubuntu install from 24.04

I solved this issue by building from source, just to let you know about this

Thanks

is librtlsdr installed on that clean install?

mrgadotti commented 2 months ago

I need to really apologize, it works after install librtlsdr. Works on Ubuntu and Mint

sudo apt install librtlsdr2 librtlsdr-dev
