Dump1090 mutability 1-15 on Mint linux

[Space Pilot]

I'd like to first install dump1090-mutability on my Linux laptop (Mint 19) for testing receivers and antennas. Should I follow the instructions posted here?

Thanks,
SpacePilot

Should work in principal.

You can't install the fr24feed pi version which is mentioned in this thread.
But compiling and installing dump1090 should be more or less the same no matter the system (that is if you have apt-get, which Mint apparently has)

To install FR24 feeder on Lnux Mint installed on Laptop, follow the instructions here:

.

I thought so, thanks for confirmation. Dump1090-mutability on my laptop is just for experimentation (different RF hardware setups, Open Street Map). Later I'll install the FR24 feeder on a Raspberry Pi.

Thank you very much!

No luck so far...

Step 4:
...
sudo dpkg-buildpackage -b

dpkg-shlibdeps: Fehler: keine Abhängigkeitsinformationen für /usr/local/lib/librtlsdr.so.0 (verwendet von debian/dump1090-mutability/usr/bin/dump1090-mutability) gefunden

which more or less translates to

"Error: No dependency information found for /usr/local/lib/librtlsdr.so.0 (used by debian / dump1090-mutability / usr / bin / dump1090-mutability)"

I don't have my dpkg-shlibdeps manpages handy - can anybody help me please?

TIA

If you use a self compiled library you'll have to override the dependency checks.

Try this command before starting the build:

export DEB_DH_SHLIBDEPS_ARGS_ALL=--dpkg-shlibdeps-params=--ignore-missing-info

Or you can uninstall the local library you installed.

(1) Edit file debian/rules and disabled dh_shlibdeps:

cd dump1090 

sudo nano debian/rules 

# In file debian/rules, the last two lines are:

%: 
        dh $@ --with=systemd 

#Below last line, add following two lines, then Save & Close file:

override_dh_shlibdeps: 
        dh_shlibdeps --dpkg-shlibdeps-params=--ignore-missing-info

Note: Indenting of last line (which starts with dh_shlibdeps) to be done by pressing Tab key

(2) Run build command:

dpkg-buildpackage -b -d

[Space Pilot]

That worked, thanks a lot!

Just one little thing: dpkg-buildpackage: Warning: UNRELEASED build not signed; use --force-sign to override

I tried to build again with --force-sign

dpkg-buildpackage: Error: Signing .buildinfo-File failed

[wiedehopf]

You don't need a signed package for a local install.

Signing is for verifying cryptographically that the package comes from debian when the package is distributed via apt.

[Space Pilot]

oh, I see, thanks again. Will set up the wireless hardware now :-)

I can't see a website under http://localhost:8080 - how can I tell dump1090-mutability is working?

[wiedehopf]

Don't know where you picked up 8080, that is only the default for dump1090-fa i believe.
Try here:

http://localhost/dump1090/

[abcd567]

The localhost:8080 originated in dump1090 Malcolm Robb which used its internal webserver instead of lighttpd.

For a long period, dump1090 MR was in Pi24 as well as installed by fr24feed when receiver=dvbt was set.

[Space Pilot]

yeah, I recall the good old times...

But as Google Maps is no longer for free I wanted to switch to Open Street Map. Thats why I installed dump1090-mutability.

Well, it seems lighttpd is not working

[wiedehopf]

journalctl -u lighttpd

This should show possible errors.

ls /etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled

This shows you which configurations are enabled.
