Unable to install MOS on MacOS Mojave (ftdi.h file not found)

ramgrandhi commented 5 years ago

Hello - I had MOS earlier when my Mac was running older version of MacOS.

Recently, i upgraded to Mojave (and, due to the underlying Xcode version upgrade), I wanted to upgrade MOS and since then, I am faced with this error:

>> brew install mos
...............
...............
go
build
-o
/usr/local/Cellar/mos/2.7.1/bin/mos

# cesanta.com/mos/flash/cc3200
flash/cc3200/ftdi_darwin.go:8:10: fatal error: 'ftdi.h' file not found
#include <ftdi.h>
         ^~~~~~~~
1 error generated.

I tried brew uninstall -force mos before installing mos, still no luck.

Appreciate you in looking into this.

you should have libftdi installed, can you verify that? if yes, can you try reinstalling it?

Thanks for the tip.

My libftdi symlink was corrupted, some how. I ran these commands to install libftdi.

brew uninstall -force libftdi
brew install libftdi

You made my day! 👍
