Sure! That is good! :D<br>
<br>
If you can add me, I will in a few hours have some free time to
merge my fork changes into it. <br>
<br>
Also anyone that have a working fork please send the link to the
repos so I can check it.<br>

<div>fyi - I just created a librtlsdr organization on
github (<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://github.com/librtlsdr" target="_blank">github.com/librtlsdr</a>)
and cloned <a moz-do-not-send="true"

target="_blank">https://github.com/steve-m/librtlsdr</a>
to it. <br>

It would be nice to aggregate a list of the most
interesting forks and attempt to merge some of the
features and/or fixes in, and possibly get this fork
tagged as the canonical fork for packages, users, etc. If
we can get some sort of a majority approval that is.<br>
<br>
</div>
I'll be more than happy to add permissions for people and/or
pass it off to someone that might have more time than myself
to manage. <br>

Oh yes, Debian Jessie did not release with rtlsdr
bandwidth setting code.<br>
But, the rtl-sdr currently available in Debian unstable,
testing and<br>
jessie-backports include current git HEAD code -
v0.5.3-12-ge3c03f7.<br>
(based upon git://<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://git.osmocom.org/rtl-sdr.git"
rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">git.osmocom.org/rtl-sdr.git</a>)<br>
<br>
So, while the Debian source package starts from the v0.5.3
tag, I use<br>
the 3.0 (quilt) source format to also include more recent
git commits.<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://sources.debian.net/src/rtl-sdr/0.5.3-5/debian/patches/"
rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://sources.debian.net/src/rtl-sdr/0.5.3-5/debian/patches/</a><br>
<br>
Ubuntu Wily Werewolf and Xenial Xerus also contain rtl-sdr
based on<br>
v0.5.3-12-ge3c03f7.<br>
<br>
A release would be good. I'd be happy to reduce the amount
of stuff<br>
in the debian/ packaging directory - the various man pages
could<br>
be adopted upstream, as well as the
improve-librtlsdr-pc-file and<br>
improve-scanning-range-parsing patches.<br>
<br>
And a gpg signed tarball release, or even just a gpg
signed tag<br>
would be a help in establishing source code integrity. A
new release<br>
for osmocom might indeed help synchronize the various
distributions.<br>
<br>
Thanks for keeping me informed,<br>
