Can't complete make command

[PsySc0rpi0n]

Hi. Little help please.

I was trying to compile the tarbal but I get the following error that some point:

$ make
Making all in firmware
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/psysc0rpi0n/Downloads/smbusb-1.0.1/firmware'
Makefile:6: ../fx2lib/lib/fx2.mk: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** No rule to make target '../fx2lib/lib/fx2.mk'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/psysc0rpi0n/Downloads/smbusb-1.0.1/firmware'
make: *** [Makefile:386: all-recursive] Error 1

What am I missing? I have pkg-config and libusb installed.

$ sudo apt install pkg-config
pkg-config is already the newest version (0.29-6).

$ sudo apt install libusb-1.0-0-dev
libusb-1.0-0-dev is already the newest version (2:1.0.22-2).

$ sudo apt install libusb-1.0-0
libusb-1.0-0 is already the newest version (2:1.0.22-2).

Hello.

I have the fx2lib folder, yes.

I'm not sure I understood the last sentence/question. But yes, I tried to compile the source code inside ~/Downloads/smbusb folder. So I sohuld have totall access (r/w).

Could the discussion continue on github?

do you have that fx2lib folder? is that file it complains about where it should be, is it readable?

you might want to provide more information? operating system to begin with maybe? " compile the tarbal(l)" which tarball, link to the download? exact steps to reproduce the error?

Sure, my bad.

I'm on Debian Buster. And about the tarbal, well, there is only one in the releases page. https://github.com/karosium/smbusb/archive/refs/tags/1.0.1.tar.gz

Steps? I was following the instructions provided in the README.md file On *nix:

aclocal
libtoolize
autoconf
automake --add-missing
./configure (options: --disable-firmware, --disable-tools)
make
make install

The release is outdated, please build from the repo directly and let me know if you still have issues.

FWIW The commands you were missing are git submodule init and git submodule update but you'd run into other issues trying to build the firmware from that release with Buster's SDCC package.
