Linux

Greaseweazle tools are installed as a Python 3 package from the command line.

To install Python 3 and C compiler on Ubuntu and other Debian-derived Linux:

    sudo apt install gcc python3-pip python3-dev
    

Install pipx. Paste or type the command:

    sudo apt install pipx
    

Install the GreaseWeazle Host Tools. Paste or type the command:

    pipx install git+https://github.com/keirf/greaseweazle@latest
    

Alternative installation (without pipx):

    python3 -m pip install git+https://github.com/keirf/greaseweazle@latest
    

Make sure GW will always be available. Paste or type the command:

    pipx ensurepath
    

To make the Greaseweazle device accessible as a normal user, and to avoid conflicts with ModemManager under Ubuntu Linux, you need to add some udev rules (included in the release download) before connecting the Greaseweazle:

    sudo cp scripts/49-greaseweazle.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/.
    

Test the installation:

    gw info
