can't build the tools

[hemna]

I'm trying to build the tools in the 'tools' branch and it seems that cmake builds makefiles that can't find the header files in /usr/local/include

It should find it in the clone, at least this what it is doing here.

Anyway, uninstall and delete any previously built version of the lib and try that:

git clone https://github.com/IW0HDV/airspyhf.git -b tools cd airspyhf/ mkdir build cd build cmake ../ -DINSTALL_UDEV_RULES=ON make VERBOSE=1

ok my mistake, I was building from the src/tools/ dir. that seems to have fixed it.

Anyway, clone again, as in the meantime I updated from the upstream with all the new features and fixed a bug in -a parameter (airspyhf_rx).
