73 Linux install BETA software #39

I don't know whether this was on purpose or not but &# Linux installs a BETA version of WSJTX software rather than the current version that expired in 2024.

This caused an issue with JS8CALL where wsjtx-data wasn't installed or found. I uninstalled WSJTX and installed the version provided by Linux Mint Software Manager. The update to js8call installed just fine.

73Linux installs WSJT-X 2.7.0-rc2. By design it will be nonfunctional after Jan 15, 2024. Please increase the priority on this issue. Thanks and 73
