Release for Modern Linux? #71

Open kuri05 opened 8 months ago

Can we get a current release for modern Linux? It looks like the last official release with binaries was in 2014.

I use Linux as my core OS. QT4 hasn't been supported in a few years, but that's what the current release binaries are compiled for. Do you have any recommendations for getting FreeSSM running on more modern Linux installs?

Specifically, I'm running Kubuntu 22.04

Library info: ii libqt5core5a:amd64 5.15.3+dfsg-2ubuntu0.2 amd64 Qt 5 core module

I'm not fully opposed to compiling myself, but I prefer to use published packages whenever possible. It saves so much time and effort for management and troubleshooting.

Ahhh, I see the Readme is pretty easy to follow. I was thrown off by the release-deb's dependencies.

I still recommend a more recent release with modern binaries and QT5 support at least. But I'm installed and running. Looks good! I can't wait for my VAG-COM adapter to arrive to try it out.

If you'd like help making the Linux deb packages, let me know.
