sudo dnf update --enablerepo=updates-testing python3-matplotlib-wxThis seems to work after upgrading a working version from Ubuntu 23.04. Therefore the packages listed for older Ubuntu versions may be ok.
Found by trial and error: Also install

The latest neumoDVB version may not work anymore because of an outdated libstdc++. You may need to upgrade.
Ubuntu 23.04 seems to be missing many of the required packages but one user report success by adding Ubuntu 22.04 repositories to /etc/apt/sources.list:

at least the following packages are needed:
sudo pip3 install mpl_scatter_densityThe software can be downloaded as follows
cd ~/
git clone --recursive https://github.com/deeptho/neumodvbNext, build NeumoDVB as follows:
cd ~/neumodvb
mkdir build
mkdir build_ext
cd ~/neumodvb/build
cmake ..
make -j`nproc`In case of problems, first check for missing pre-requisite software. For some of the pre-requisite software, fairly recent versions are needed.
For troubleshooting, the following information may be useful:
-
Some of the source code being compiled is generated by a python script
src/neumodb/neumodb.py, which takes its input from configuration filesdbdefs.pylocated insrc/neumodb/chdb, and similar directories. The resulting code is placed inbuild/src/neumodb/chdband similar places -
To speed up compilation, some C++ headers are pre-compiled. Usually this works fine, but in some cases, after making changes to header files, the precompiled headers become out of date and need to be rebuild, Usually this will be clear from compiler errors, but in rare cases, the result will be worse: neumoDVB will compile and then crash in strange ways. When this happens, remove all files under
/build, runcmake ..again in the build directory.Alternatively, modify the CMakeList.txt files to remove header pre-compilation
-
That being said, the normal and fastest way of recompiling after making changes to sources -- which should work in most cases -- is simply as follows:
cd ~/neumodvb/build;
make -j`nproc`- In any case, if your distribution uses
ccache, compilation will be much faster the second time around, even after you clearbuild/completely. - NeumoDVB contains copies of some external software packages, some of which have been modified.
- Specifically, the database code
lmdb(renamed toneumolmdbto avoid confusion with any existing lmdb on your system) contains a few small, but crucial changes compared to the source (e.g., related to setting theFD_CLOEXECflag. - The
wxsvglibrary (renamed toneumowxsvg) has been more heavily modified. The modifications consist of added code to allow for efficient embedded of the mpv video player.
After NeumoDVB has been built successfully, you can install it if you wish. Installation is optional: you also run the software directly from the build tree. This makes it easier to debug problems.
cd ~/neumodvb/build
sudo make installFor packaging purposes, commands like make install DESTDIR=/tmp/temporary_location also work fine.
neumoDVB can work with the regular linuxDVB drivers and supports all cards supported by these drivers.
If you own a supported card, it is best to install the neumo blindscan kernel drivers. These drivers are available at https://github.com/deeptho/blindscan.
Without these drivers, features like blindscan and spectral analysis will not work. neumoDVB has not been tested with the regular kernel drivers. Crashes may occur if you try to use unsupported features. These are bugs. Report them on the issue tracker.
