To follow up from my previous post: I got it working!
My fork of the EFF's Rayhunter adds support for Debian 12, Ubuntu 22.04, and macOS (x86_64). Get it from the latest job in pipeline https://gitlab.hax0rbana.org/public-repos/rayhunter/-/pipelines
I've submitted the improvements upstream and hope they will be accepted: https://github.com/EFForg/rayhunter/pull/172
But you can get this from me whether it's accepted there or not. I couod use help testing (I don't own a mac, for example). Please comment on the MR if you test and have a GitHub account.

quoting nevent1q…2lglThe #eff made a wonderful project called rayhunter. It detects modern cell site simulators (aka #stingrays, fake cell towers).
But it doesn't work out of the box on Debian and when I offered a fix (commands to compile a version for Debian), they didn't like it, suggesting that everyone who uses Debian or #Ubuntu 22.04 should set up a rust development environment & compile it themselves.
The beauty of #OpenSource is that I don't have to accept that answer. I'm forking it & adding a #Debian release

I'm not familiar with #Microsoft's #GitHub CI/CD system, so I'm making automated jobs to do it in #GitLab's CI. I **will** accept pull requests to also implement it in GitHub's CI/CD, and I can mirror my fork over there after I get the feature implemented.
Hopefully the upstream maintainers will accept my feature so the project is more accessible to people, especially #journalists and #activists who might not know how to get the bleeding edge #Rust toolchain.
And if it is not accepted, then people who find out about my repo can choose between downloading a release from my CI/CD or compiling it themselves.
And that's OK. Letting people choose is a good thing. When there is a difference of opinion, spinning up another fork is great.
Who knows, maybe I'll add a #Windows release as well. 😁
