I was trying to compile I-Nex after a long interval/time. I got the following error while compiiing . Sharing the whole she-bang which happened wll try to compile -:-

Could somebody share what am I doing wrong here ?

[eloaders]

No package 'libcpuid' found.

[alphastar868]

As per @eloaders, the main problem is resolving the missing libcpuid first...

Why did you try to use these options (were they in the documentation somewhere?):

--disable-maintainer-mode, --disable-dependency-tracking

AFAIK, they are not needed...

[shirishag75]

I didn't do that, this is what is/was there probably in debian/rules file.
