cmake Error: LibUSB 1.0 required to compile rtl-SDR #2

Open temmink opened 4 months ago

temmink commented 4 months ago

I just downloaded the script. and executed the bootstrap on my Mac mini M1 Then I ran the make (installation) script.

It failed at:

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:88 (message): LibUSB 1.0 required to compile rtl-sdr

But Libusb is installed, through "brew install libusb" . I tried to reinstall and relink the libusb, but cmake still complains that it cannot find the libusb.

any idea how I could solve this issue?

after installing through macports the libusb-devel package I got a little bit further. Now I'm getting a fatal error:

CubicSDR-macOSBuild/build_stage/rtlsdr/src/librtlsdr.c:30:10: fatal error: 'libusb.h' file not found

This worked for me:

Download the source from github.com: https://github.com/libusb/libusb/releases/tag/v1.0.26

Build it in the standard way:

$ tar xvfj libusb-1.0.26.tar.bz2 $ cd libusb-1.0.26 $ ./configure $ make $ make check $ sudo make install

and then recompile the cubicSDR-macOSBuild source again.

Then it will fail on libsdrplay not found.

The libusb support should have been installed in the first build step from the Readme:

execute scripts/bootstrap_macos.sh to install system prerequsites

Which also requires Homebrew to be installed; I don't recommend MacPorts but it's good you could make it work.

I've also removed SDRPlay as part of the default 'all_modules' and moved it into 'nodep_modules' since the dependencies for it will not be built by default -- SDRPlay development files must be downloaded from SDRPlay's site separately to build support for it.

If you pull and build again it should hopefully work.
