ax25

from here: https://github.com/ve7fet/linuxax25

each install had a list of dependencies.

• ax25apps
• ax25tools
• libax25

# as root, install all deps
apt-get install -y autoconf automake autotools-dev debhelper devscripts dh-make dpkg-dev fakeroot gcc libc libncursesw5-dev libtool lintian zlib1g-dev

then download the install script, chown, and run
