update the installation at a later date. There are many versions and

Hamlib
------
Currently we statically link Hamlib to avoid clashes with
pre-installed DLLs that may be older versions than we support. Once
Hamlib v1.4 is officially released and commonly available we will move
to dynamic linking. Until then Hamlib must be built from
sources. There is a fork of the official Hamlib project which we keep
up to date with the official project master branch, we recommend
building from the 'integration' branch of that fork. The fork is a git
repository which can be cloned with this command:
git clone git://git.code.sf.net/u/bsomervi/hamlib hamlib
cd hamlib
git checkout integration
