I'm trying to install blocksat-cli usb without a VM.
I follow their instructions on https://github.com/Blockstream/satellite/blob/master/doc/tbs.md#tbs-5927-drivers.

After blocksat-cli deps tbs-drivers I get:
blocksat-cli dependencies: error: invalid choice: 'tbs-drivers' (choose from 'install', 'update')

After blocksat-cli deps install I get:
Installation of dependencies no supported yet for Linux USB demodulator setup

To install the TBS drivers I ran:
cd util /
./tbsdriver.sh

After sudo blocksat-cli usb config I get:

Hi @VDelport,

It looks like you are using an old version of the CLI. Could you check blocksat-cli -v? The latest version is 0.2.9.

Please upgrade by running:

sudo pip3 install blocksat-cli --upgrade

Thank you. How about the hint
sudo pip3 install blocksat-cli --upgrade on the page https://github.com/Blockstream/satellite/blob/master/doc/tbs.md#tbs-5927-drivers to be added?
