How do I install the SteamVR SDK to continue?

[ichigo198777]

I followed each of the instructions. However when I arrive at the Compile and install driver step when [./make.sh] is run it give a fatal error code of:

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:62 (message):
  OPENVRPATHS-NOTFOUND Please install SteamVR SDK to continue..

I don't know whats causing this however when I looked through the source code it references this to the error

# Check that the steamVR SDK is installed 
# (needed to prevent a segfault in OpenVR).
if(CMAKE_HOST_UNIX)
  find_file(OPENVRPATHS openvrpaths.vrpath PATHS $ENV{HOME}/.config/openvr "$ENV{HOME}/Library/Application Support/OpenVR/.openvr")
  if(${OPENVRPATHS} MATCHES OPENVRPATHS-NOTFOUND)
    message(FATAL_ERROR "${OPENVRPATHS} Please install SteamVR SDK to continue..")
  endif()
endif()

I use arch Linux with a gnome desktop and have Steam Vr installed What's causing this error and how do I fix it.

Same issue. As far as I know at the moment the .config/openvr path is wrong. The build succeeded after modifying CMakeLists.txt as follows.

# Check that the steamVR SDK is installed
# (needed to prevent a segfault in OpenVR).
if(CMAKE_HOST_UNIX)
  find_file(OPENVRPATHS openvrpaths.vrpath PATHS $ENV{HOME}/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.config/openvr/ "$ENV{HOME}/Library/Application Support/OpenVR/.openvr")
  if(${OPENVRPATHS} MATCHES OPENVRPATHS-NOTFOUND)
    message(FATAL_ERROR "${OPENVRPATHS} Please install SteamVR SDK to continue..")
  endif()
endif()

My enviroment.

That fixed the issue with The steam Vr open paths however it failed after it tryed to build the driver

cp: cannot create directory '/home/active-user/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/SteamVR/drivers/': No such file or directory mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/home/active-user/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/SteamVR/drivers/linus_trinus/bin/’: No such file or directory cp: cannot create directory '/home/active-user/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/SteamVR/drivers/linus_trinus/bin/': No such file or directory if it helps my steam Vr directory is located at /home/active-user/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/SteamVR

EDIT: managed to compile it changed the directory in make.sh to: STEAM_PATH=~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam STEAMVR_PATH=$STEAM_PATH/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/SteamVR
