Details

SigDigger displays and allows the analysis of the radio spectrum. Data can be captured from multiple different SDRs using the SoapySDR library. However this library (and the various drivers) are not listed as a dependency to SigDigger. For example to use SigDigger with RTL-SDR you need to install soapyrtlsdr which depends on soapysdr.

Steps to reproduce:

Install SigDigger and connect RTL-SDR USB dongle. The device is found using gqrx, but not by SigDigger. In the dependencies of gqrx there is already a driver for rtl-sdr, however SigDigger needs the additional SoapySDR intermediate library to function.


Package version: sigdigger 0.1.0-1

I cannot reprodyce. sigdigger already depends on suscan, which depends on soapy sdr, and that is the correct place for the dependency. Are you sure you have soapyrtlsdr installed?

Can't reproduce as well. Was probably an issue with my Python environment.
