  "github_readme_excerpt": "# dump1090-fa Debian/Raspbian packages\n\ndump1090-fa is a ADS-B, Mode S, and Mode 3A/3C demodulator and decoder that\nwill receive and decode aircraft transponder messages received via\na directly connected software defined radio, or from data provided over a\nnetwork connection.\n\nIt is the successor to\n[dump1090-mutability](https://github.com/mutability/dump1090) and is\nmaintained by [FlightAware](http://flightaware.com/).\n\nIt can provide a display of locally received aircraft data in a terminal or\nvia a browser map. Together with [PiAware](http://flightaware.com/adsb/piaware)\nit can be used to contribute crowd-sourced flight tracking data to FlightAware.\n\nIt is designed to build as a Debian package, but should also be buildable on\nmany other Linux or Unix-like systems.\n\n## Building under bullseye, buster, or stretch\n\n```bash\n$ sudo apt-get install build-essential fakeroot debhelper librtlsdr-dev pkg-config libncurses5-dev libbladerf-dev libhackrf-dev liblimesuite-dev libsoapysdr-dev devscripts\n$ ./prepare-build.sh bullseye    # or buster, or stretch\n$ cd package-bullseye            # or buster, or stretch\n$ dpkg-buildpackage -b --no-sign\n```\n\n## Building with limited dependencies\n\n(Supported for bullseye and buster builds only)\n\nThe package supports some build profiles to allow building without all\nrequired SDR libraries being present. This will produce a package with\nlimited SDR support only.\n\nPass `--build-profiles` to `dpkg-buildpackage` with a comma-separated list of\nprofiles. The list of profiles should include `custom` and zero or more of\n`rtlsdr`, `bladerf`, `hackrf`, `limesdr`, \u0027soapysdr\u0027 depending on what you want:\n\n```bash\n$ dpkg-buildpackage -b --no-sign --build-profiles=custom,rtlsdr          # builds with rtlsdr support only\n$ dpkg-buildpackage -b --no-sign --build-profiles=custom,rtlsdr,bladerf  # builds with rtlsdr and bladeRF support\n$ dpkg-buildpackage -b --no-sign --build-profiles=custom                 # builds with _no_ SDR support (network support",
