Installing QSpectrum Analyzer & SoapySDR on Ubuntu

[sairfan1]

I tried installing QSpectrum analyzer ond SoapySDR on windows but I came to know that QSpectrum Analyzer has issue running on windows with HackRF One

I download and installed Ubuntu, but found that there is not one package (or one set of instructions) to install SoapySDR which is dependency for QSpectrum Analyzer, below are the links to their main repository and instructions that look outdated.

https://github.com/xmikos/qspectrumanalyzer

https://github.com/pothosware/SoapySDR/wiki

I was lost looking at installation instructions related to SoapySDR there are lots of dependencies, when i run commands from instruction page I came to know that those packages do not exist anymore etc.

I wanted to know if someone has setup SoapySDR and QSpectrum Analyzer can you please provide help or some sources (website page) to setup it on Ubuntu or Windows.

I think following commands should install it:

Code: [Select]

sudo apt-get install l
sudo apt-get install libsoapysdr-0.8
sudo apt-get install soapydr-tools
Maybe you should install -dev and -doc too:

Code: [Select]

sudo apt-get install libsoapysdr-dev
sudo apt-get install libsoapysdr-doc
I have no idea about QSpectrum analyzer.

Meanwhile I was able to run it one Windows, On Ubuntu I setup SoapySDR/Pothor and QSpectrum Analyzer, When I run a sweep on console I can see commands were sent to HackRF and response received, but no activity on application  I'm not experienced with Ubuntu (Linux) I believe, I need to set path to executable ie. hackrf_sweep can you please guide me on Ubuntu what could be the path? I install Pothor on default path
