Pi-FM-RDS, depends on the `sndfile` library. To install this library on Debian-like distributions, for instance Raspbian, run `sudo apt-get install libsndfile1-dev`.
Pi-FM-RDS also depends on the Linux `rpi-mailbox` driver, so you need a recent Linux kernel. The Raspbian releases from August 2015 have this.

**Important.** The binaries compiled for the Raspberry Pi 1 are not compatible with the Raspberry Pi 2/3, and conversely. Always re-compile when switching models, so do not skip the `make clean` step in the instructions below!

**Important.** If `make` reports any error, then no `pi_fm_rds` executable file is generated (and vice versa). So any error must be fixed before you can proceed to the next steps. `make` may fail if any required library is missing (see above), or it could be a bug on a specific/newer distribution. In this case, please file a bug.
If `make` reports no error (i.e. the `pi_fm_rds` executable gets generated), you can then simply run:
