Current Raspbian support (bullseye, released October 30th 2021) #222

Closed Utopiah closed 2 years ago

Hi, Auto Installation doesn't work on the current RPi OS. Manual compilation also fails.

Few months ago this was identified https://github.com/PiSupply/PaPiRus/issues/220#issuecomment-901421426 but since nearly 2 months now the official RPi distribution points to something not compatible anymore.

  1. moving ${LDFLAGS} at the end of the compilation line in https://github.com/repaper/gratis/blob/master/PlatformWithOS/driver-common/Makefile#L118
  2. manually installing the driver as described in https://github.com/PiSupply/PaPiRus#install-driver-option-2-best-to-run-all-of-these-commands-as-root-using-sudo but relying on that modified Makefile
  3. and finally installing the API for Python3 according to https://github.com/PiSupply/PaPiRus#install-python-api-best-to-run-all-of-these-commands-as-root-using-sudo

made the Python3 example work on Raspbian 11 (bullseye) on a RPi3.

Fix is now in the repaper/gratis repository, so standard install should work now. See also https://github.com/PiSupply/PaPiRus/issues/220#issuecomment-999855458 Closing the issue.
