I tried to compile the git repo's commit 0ec63ce7ce and that doesn't compile for me.
The interesting lines from the build output seem to be:
/home/cqrlog/build/src/fMonWsjtx.pas(1427,16) Error: (3205) Illegal qualifier
/home/cqrlog/build/src/fMonWsjtx.pas(1672,32) Error: (3205) Illegal qualifier

This is an attempt to compile on a Debian stretch machine.

Now the thing compiles, but when starting that alpha cqrlog, I get

As a wild experiment, I moved to a different name my
$HOME/.config/cqrlog(so that directory doesn't exist), but that did not help.Using Docker, I compiled the same with the development environment in a Ubuntu-based Docker container. It compiled. I then installed this on my Debian Stretch box. It seems to run.
Not sure what to make out of this. Apparently, compilation under Debian is not supported?
Here is something that seems to work: https://github.com/ok2cqr/cqrlog/pull/183
