dump1090_1.3 on linux

I am running Ubuntu 18.04 and SDRPlay RSP2. I am attempting to run dump1090_1.3 from the terminal. When I enter ./dump1090, I get the following message:

./dump1090: error while loading shared libraries: libmirsdrapi-rsp.so.2.11: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I have API driver version 2.13 installed and I believe dump1090 is looking for version 2.11. I can't find version 2.11 to try. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

You have two options:
  1. Create a symbolic link under '/usr/local/lib' where libmirsdrapi-rsp.so.2.11 points to libmirsdrapi-rsp.so.2.13 (and then run 'ldconfig'):

    Code: Select all

    $ cd /usr/local/lib
    $ ln -s libmirsdrapi-rsp.so.2.13 libmirsdrapi-rsp.so.2.11
    $ ldconfig
    
  2. Open a support ticket with SDRplay and they can provide you access to the SDRplay Linux API version 2.11 (since only the latest version is available for direct download on their website)
You may also want to take a look at this thread on the community forum: https://sdrplay.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=4138.
