I'm still really busy with offline stuff, accepting co-maintainers

Fixed: Fixed versioning to be more sensible.

please comment if there are any issues.

The make install step is still missing the DESTDIR environment.

Updated to the new upstream repo, please comment if there are any issues.

Hi, feel free to add me as a co-maintainer.

The upstream URL https://github.com/szpajder/RTLSDR-Airband now redirects to https://github.com/charlie-foxtrot/RTLSDR-Airband as the project was handed over to another dev, see - https://github.com/charlie-foxtrot/RTLSDR-Airband/discussions/342

unless you need mirisdr it's optional. in the PKGBUILD i removed 'libmirisdr' from depends & makedepends. to the build() section, added -DMIRISDR=OFF \

after it didn't work, changed the package() section as well

rtl_airband looks for default config in /usr/local/etc/rtl_airband.conf but '-c' allows for alternatives: $ rtl_airband -c /etc/rtl_airband/basic_scanning.conf
