Hey there,

As work has begun a while ago on building independent packages, some build options have been removed. So far, the following drivers now have their own "indi-xxx" packages:

  • indi-asi
  • indi-qsi
  • indi-qhy
  • indi-gpsd
  • indi-eqmod
  • indi-gpsnmea

"it seems that the following dependencies are needed in order to build this package: libnova14-compat libraw libdc1394 gpsd fftw boost-libs"

Well, yes. That's because at the moment it's a lot of work to split all the third party indi drivers into multiple packages. gpsd is only required for indi-gps, boost for apogee, libraw for gphoto, libdc1394 for indi-ffmv, fftw for libdspau in turn needed for indi-rtlsdr.

As you can see, spliting would avoid adding a ton of unnecessary dependencies, but it is tricky and a lot of work. We're hiring volunteers :)

Also, note that you don't have to have those to build a working package. It is only if you want to have all working drivers which generally isn't needed for everyone (since no one owns all the types of hardware possible). It' a poor excuse, I know...

Pinning both comments as it's useful info IMHO.
