Can't finish Debian install script on Inovato Quadra

Please provide the following information with your question:

  1. Operating System:

  2. Method of download attempted (from wfview.org, package manager, source code, etc):

  3. Radio Model:

  4. Method of radio connectivity (USB, WiFi, Ethernet, etc):

  5. Did you check the FAQ and read the manual?

  6. Inovato Quadra with Debian OS.

  7. Debian Install Script from Download page / Github

  8. Icom IC-7300 (never got to running Wfview)

  9. USB

  10. Yes

I follow the video instructions to the letter, including the 3 manually entered commands to change the directory, make the script executable, and then run it. When it asks if I want to also install dependencies, I say YES, even if I’ve already run the script previously, It show that each file is already installed and at the latest version . Then I get this error, every time:

It appears that some needed files are not being found by the script. As a Linux N00b, I am dead in my tracks. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello,

Please try updating your cache before running the script. That will probably resolve the issue:

sudo apt update

This merely updates the list of packages and their URLs. It may be all you need. Then run the script again.

Let us know if it works out,

Elliot,

Thank you very much! That did the trick.

Now onto interfacing wfview with my 7300…
