[VicPiMakers Projects] Split Presentation?

[Craig Miller]

Gordo,

That _does_ look interesting. I'll be out of town for Part 1, but I'll 
certainly make it for part 2.

Since you plan on running Debian 12 on the Pi, I guess you are going to 
surrender to Snap, since Debian doesn't support a native version of 
incus (or LXD). Just a comment, but Alpine Linux _does_ have a native 
version of incus, but then your  Flightaware software may not work 
(unless you run debian in a container), as Alpine Linux uses Musl C 
libraries rather than glibc.

Please send a description to Cody and me when you get a chance.

thanks, it looks like an interesting project.

Craig....
