LinuxMint 20.x CQRlog and HAMlib howto..... (and troubleshooting)

Hello all,

I at times update my installer scripts at https://github.com/pa1sbm/LM_CQRlog_Installer

This scripts are tested on a fresh install of the current LinuxMint Cinamon edition.
These scripts install CQRlog in a way that when Petr publishes an update, it will be automatically installed via the update manager.

I now added a script which just updates or installs the HAMlibs to version 4.1. It was already a part of the big installer, but if you already have CQRlog installed you can just update the HAMlibs. I did this cause somehow LinuxMint still uses HAMlib 3.3 as default in their repositories.
And newer rigs are not in there yet.

Also , if you run into problems with my scripts, or your own installation, I intend to give support to anyone who uses Linuxmint 19.3 or newer via Teamviewer. Voicechat can be done with skype... or any program you prefer.
I can help you fix your installation and get your rig connected.
Preferably on the weekend and at a time that is not in the middle of the night for me :)
Ofcourse this if for free.... well a "thank you" when it works would be nice ;)
If you want some help, drop me an email at pa1sbm@live.nl

There was a small bug in the HAMlib part of my script.
The HAMlib installs in /usr/local and that's wrong for ubuntu like systems.
Bill, NZ0T, told me the script did not work, and with his help we found the bug and it was fixed.

When you use one of the hamlib scripts now, it will install properly in folder which is a default for Ubuntu based distro's and therefor LinuxMint.

Thanx Bill!
