16WSJT-X Superbuild
17=================
18
19This package builds the WSJT-X application. It does not directly
20contain the source files, instead it consists of a CMake script that
21builds the application by fetching the sources from their respective
22source control repositories and then building the application.
23
24WSJT-X also has a CMake build system but currently it also has a
25dependency on a library called Hamlib which itself has to built from a
26fork of the official Hamlib project. The Hamlib fork is used because
27it contains the latest patches not yet accepted by the Hamlib
28development team.
29
30This project combines he building of Hamlib and WSJT-X. It also has a
31two phase mode that builds a complete source package in phase one that
32can then be transferred to another build host to be built in phase two
33there. This two phase mode is aimed at Linux package maintainers who
34have to have a complete upstream source package that can be built on a
35restricted build server. The intermediate source tarball is released
36by the WSJT-X team as a resource for conveniently building both Hamlib
37and WSJT-X from sources
