First download the Adept software from this page

Next download the Waveforms software from this page

Install the Adept software:

$] sudo dnf install Downloads/digilent.adept.runtime-2.17.1.x86_64.rpm

NOTE: version numbers may vary

Next install the Waveforms software. Due to a missing dependency use this command:

$] sudo rpm --install --nodeps -vh Downloads/digilent.waveforms_3.7.5.x86_64.rpm

NOTE: version numbers may vary

NOTE: The following instructions was valid for waveforms version 3.7. Later version e.g. 3.8 seems to work all-right without editing.

Finally, because the QT libraries has changed on Fedora, edit the bash script that start the Waveforms application.

]$ sudo vi /usr/bin/waveforms

Change the library export in the second line from

 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/digilent/waveforms/qtlibs

to

 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib64

This should make your copy of Waveforms run.
