Package wiringpi is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source

E: Package 'ttf-dejavu-core' has no installation candidate E: Package 'wiringpi' has no installation candidate

This is a very old build, built for Raspbian Jessie. Since then, Wiring Pi has been taken out of the main distribution and Raspbian Bullseye has removed support for the fonts and graphics used. If using a Raspberry Pi 3, try Portstsdown 2020 which is based on rpidatv and works with Raspios Buster Lite. The BATC build for a Raspberry Pi 4 Portsdown 4 does not support the RF transmission from a GPIO port that rpidatv provides, but works with a LimeSDR or a Pluto SDR.

portsdown4 and portsdown3 does not support GPIO RF transmission ? correct

Portsdown 2020 on the Raspberry Pi 3 does support RF transmission from the GPIO. https://github.com/BritishAmateurTelevisionClub/portsdown-buster
