Unable to build on Ubuntu 10.04 #22

Closed glennschmidt closed 10 years ago

glennschmidt commented 10 years ago

Building the module fails on Ubuntu 10.04. It looks like it's failed to include the udev headers or something, or the version of the udev library is incompatible?

Ah yes, here is the crux of the problem, earlier in the log output:

../deps/open-zwave/cpp/hidapi/linux/hid.c:44:21: warning: libudev.h: No such file or directory

Resolved this by installing the OS package libudev-dev.

apt-get install libudev-dev

Probably the only thing required is to document this dependency somewhere for the benefit of future people who run into this.
