Failed to Install

[IanJazzNet]

Hi Guys,

I am running the latest version of Linux Mint (19 TARA - 4.15.0-39-generic) and failing on installation of this.

The command I am running is

sudo -H pip install "aws-google-auth[u2f]"

The erroneous output I get is:

I am pretty sure I have the relevant dependancies:

`$ apt list | grep u2f

I have the following installed with pip:

aws-google-auth (0.0.29) boto3 (1.9.58) botocore (1.12.58) google-auth (1.6.1) setuptools (40.6.2) wheel (0.32.3)

Any Ideas why the python-u2flib-host and the hidapi wheels are fialing?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Now we are at the edge of my python install knowledge - will need to do some research into what this could be - replicating it will probably be our biggest challenge as I develop on a Mac and it just works.

Wonder if there is a way to validate this through some combination of a TravisCI build.

It just seems that you are missing libusb-dev library:

sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0.0-dev

Good pickup @povils - I'll update the README with this requirement to help in the future.
