After going round and round doing installs of Limesuite, SoapySDR and PothosWare, I did a reset and reinstalled my OS (2019-07-10-raspbian-buster-full) and built SoapySDR from sources.  This is the result of --info:

~/SoapySDR/build $ SoapySDRUtil --info

Here it is for --make:

Since for raspian, I can't use PPA's, how am I do add a LimeSDR Usb module? 
Also, the modules0,8 (missing) concerns me.


Any suggestions will be appreciated!

Build limesuite from source. Make sure SoapySDRLMS7 is one of the enabled components.

That should do it

Best,
