Neither of those 2 suggested packages are required for Debian GNOME which uses pipewire (specifically it installs the pipewire-audio package). I don't know exactly what other desktops are using in Debian. I'm going to leave the task of having working sound to the desktop environments. If you're not using a major desktop, you may be on your own here. > In any case, for AAC-encoded streams > > gstreamer1.0-fdkaac > libfdk-aac2 Those are not in Debian main so it's not possible for shortwave to have a Depends or Recommends relationship to them. Thank you for confirming that you got shortwave working now. The mention of GNOME Circle in the package description is to help people easily find apps which are part of the program. GNOME Circle apps are verified to be high quality apps that work well with GNOME. See https://apps.gnome.org/#circle Jeremy Bícha
