Re: QSSTV-5.2d compiling

[Mike Markowski <mm@UDel.Edu>]

Thanks, David, you were a great help.  I had just downloaded qsstv
when your note came through.  To summarize for others, using David's
info to get qsstv running:

   - Go to http://eu.hurd.gnuab.org/pub/debian/pool/main/q/qsstv/

   - Download qsstv_5.2d.orig.tar.gz and qsstv_5.2d-8+cfg.diff.gz

   - After untarring/gzipping, patch -p 0 < qsstv_5.2d-8+cfg.diff

   - touch qsstv/configform.ui qsstv/ftpform.ui qsstvrecform.ui \
     qsstv/zoomform.ui qsstv/freqform.ui qsstv/posform.ui \
     qsstv/textselect.ui

   - And you're all set to configure, make, & install.
