Ah, sorry, that was on my end, qt5-websockets was stale

This is the diff to get the 2.24:

After building, I get an SIGABRT on running wfview in the Qt compatibility check function QObjectPrivate::checkForIncompatibleLibraryVersion()

Although they release v2.21 on their homepage, but they don't tag it on gitlab. I'wll watching on it.

Personally i've had to downgrade back to 1.64, rigctl is broken on my ic-7410.

Issue raised on wfview git.

@WA4NDR thanks for your feedback, yes this seems to have been missing some critical files - I've made some changes and confirmed rigs are now included

This package is not working as expected for me. Connecting to my radio over WiFi would hang and never finish loading.

I compared the PKGBUILD to the official build instructions and it looks like the "rigs" directory is being left out of the finished package.

Editing the PKGBUILD to add the following to package() seems to resolve the problem:

mkdir -p "$pkgdir/usr/share/wfview/rigs"
cp -rv "${srcdir}/wfview/rigs" -t "$pkgdir/usr/share/wfview/"

tnx for time

@simona - nice, glad you figured it out. That pingnoo package is doing a lot of things incorrectly and probably shouldn't be installed as it is

solved. I think you should insert pkg pingnoo as not compatible or modify pkg installer

@simona it thinks you have libQCustomPlot.so in ldconfig -p | grep libQCustomPlot.so

its possibly you have a -git package or qt6 package that installed that. The qmake install files are very brittle and I'll need to take a closer look tomorrow - I can't reproduce your issue but I think it can be solved relatively easily
