[osmocom-announce] LimeSDR support in osmocom:{nightly, latest} package feeds

Dear all, starting from today, we're packaging LimeSuite and (as needed) other dependencies required for using osmo-trx/osmo-bts-trx with LimeSDR in the network:osmocom:nightly and network:osmocom:latest feeds. The package versions are fixed and are not tracking "master" of e.g. limesuite. Only the Osmocom packages are tracking master. Due to the unfortunate fact that the first LimeSuite with osmo-trx support (17.09.0) requiring a cmake later than what Debian 8 ships, LimeSDR support is not working with all of the Distributions/Versions that the rest of the Osmocom stack supports. It appears that LimeSuite also has some build issues on ARM architectures, about which I've submitted an upstream bug report at https://github.com/myriadrf/LimeSuite/issues/151 But at least for x86_64 and i586 architecture, LimeSDR should be supported by the Osmocom package feeds , on Debian 9.0, Ubuntu 16.04, 16.10, 17.04 and 17.10. We will shortly use those packages as part of our osmo-gsm-tester setup at the sysmocom lab, at which point they should receive extensive testing.
