Binaries only, no source. Windows .exe/.msi go up as release attachments (they are 64-77 MB each, too big for git history); .deb packages are committed under debs/ like the other *-deb repos. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# darthvader — downloads
|
||
|
||
Prebuilt packages for **darthvader**, the native desktop client for digital
|
||
voice (M17 / DMR / YSF / NXDN / D-STAR / P25, EchoLink, AllStar, SvxLink, APRS,
|
||
POCSAG) with DV3000 USB AMBE+2 support.
|
||
|
||
This repository contains **binaries only** — no source. Source lives in a
|
||
separate private repository; the published sources of the GPL components ship
|
||
with each package.

|
||
|
||
## Windows
|
||
|
||
Download from the [latest release](../../releases/latest):
|
||
|
||
| File | For |
|
||
|---|---|
|
||
| `darthvader-<version>-win64.exe` | Normal install (NSIS), Start menu + desktop shortcut |
|
||
| `darthvader-<version>-win64.msi` | MSI, for unattended/managed deployment |
|
||
|
||
Windows 10/11 64-bit. The packages are **not code-signed**, so SmartScreen shows
|
||
a warning — choose *More info* → *Run anyway*. Everything is bundled (Qt, codecs,
|
||
LADSPA plugins); nothing else needs installing.
|
||
|
||
Silent install:
|
||
|
||
```cmd
|
||
darthvader-<version>-win64.exe /S
|
||
msiexec /i darthvader-<version>-win64.msi /qn
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
DV3000 / ThumbDV / DVstick sticks appear as COM ports through the FTDI VCP
|
||
driver and are detected automatically. If audio stutters, lower the port's
|
||
*Latency Timer* to 1–2 ms in Device Manager → Port Settings → Advanced.
|
||
|
||
## Debian / Raspberry Pi OS
|
||
|
||
`.deb` packages in [`debs/`](debs/) — bookworm and trixie, `amd64` and `arm64`
|
||
(Pi Zero 2 W and newer):
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
sudo apt install ./darthvader_<version>_<arch>.deb
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Verifying downloads
|
||
|
||
Each release lists SHA-256 sums in `SHA256SUMS`:
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS
|
||
```
|
||
|
||

||

|
||
