I was unable to solve this for Ubuntu 22.

I resorted to building the latest from source.

You need to update libboost.
Check to see if a new package is available.

LM20 is based on Ubuntu 20.04 so it will return libboost 1.71

Denton

It's not a good idea to try shoe horn in libraries above the the repo level, you'd likely create problems in other apps requiring the repo level.  Best not go that way.

Your problem is that WSJT-X 2.6.0-rc4 requires Ubuntu 22.04 (although the web page says Ubuntu 20.04 LTS), as has been mentioned before (might have been on the developers forum)

If you want to use the deb package you'll have to upgrade to Linux Mint 21 which is based on Ubuntu 22.04

Alternatively, you can still use LM 20 if you build from sources.  it's easy, I've done it.  It took 4 minutes on my workstation and 7 mins on my old laptop.  And it works just fine. There are scripts to do it.  I have attached one.  It will install all the tools, compilers etc and any library dependencies you need too.  There are more on the forum.  Glad to help if you need any.

Hi Bill

I installed the deb using apt on a clean install of Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS plus current updates.  Worked no problem.

The dependencies that had to be installed were:-

Note the boost file required is libboost-log1.74.0

That's interesting.  Ubuntu 22.04 definitely has libboost 1.74 :-

It's not a good idea to try shoe horn in libraries above the the repo
level, you'd likely create problems in other apps requiring the repo
level. Best not go that way.

Your problem is that WSJT-X 2.6.0-rc4 requires Ubuntu 22.04 (although
the web page says Ubuntu 20.04 LTS), as has been mentioned before (might
have been on the developers forum)

If you want to use the deb package you'll have to upgrade to Linux Mint
21 which is based on Ubuntu 22.04

Alternatively, you can still use LM 20 if you build from sources. it's
easy, I've done it. It took 4 minutes on my workstation and 7 mins on
my old laptop. And it works just fine. There are scripts to do it. I
have attached one. It will install all the tools, compilers etc and any
library dependencies you need too. There are more on the forum. Glad
to help if you need any.

You need to update libboost.
Check to see if a new package is available.

I'm also unable to install wsjtx_2.6.0.rc4_amd64.deb. The first error message is related to libboost-filesystem 1.74.0.

If you compile your own it should work.https://www.boost.org/users/download/

You may have to remove the system package too.
