I don't know what's wrong.

[CompKingCanada]

Same here. Can't compile

I have had the same issue with ubuntu/disco and librtlsdr-dev version 0.6-1.

In my case the problem was caused by the invalid pkg-config file at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/librtlsdr.pc that comes with version 0.6-1.

I fixed it by upgrading librtsdr-dev to version 0.6-2 from ubuntu/eoan.

[robrackn]

try adjusting /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/librtlsdr.pc I'm still running librtlsdr-dev 0.6-1

Had the same/similar issue on a RasPi 4 aarch64 running Raspbian 10 (Buster). undefined usrp_source was my issue. I modified /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/librtlsdr.pc to the following to find the missing references:

prefix=/usr exec_prefix=${prefix} libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib includedir=${prefix}/include

The missing references in my situation are all related to ./src/usrp_source.cc:line xxx: rtlsdr_get_device_name' rtlsdr_get_device_name' rtlsdr_open' rtlsdr_set_sample_rate' rtlsdr_reset_buffer' rtlsdr_reset_buffer' usrp_source::fill(unsigned int, unsigned int*)': rtlsdr_read_sync'

[jeff-luszcz]

robrackn's librtlsdr.pc fix above was what allowed me to finally compile calibrate-rtl on my raspberry pi running the SatNOGS "Raspbian image with SatNOGS Client Ansible "

If you are banging your head on alternative rtlsdr compiles and whatnot, try this first.

On my systems the left hand side was present but all the variables to the right were blank. A quick edit fixed the compile problems right away.

[conradstorz]

Worked for me too. Same problem of the missing variables. I simply used sudo nano /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/librtlsdr.pc to edit the file.

[SloCompTech]

If anybody still needs solution, I fixed it with sed:

cd build
cmake ../  -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/usr -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR:PATH=lib && \
        sed -i 's/^prefix=.*/prefix=\/usr/g' librtlsdr.pc && \
        sed -i 's/^exec_prefix=.*/exec_prefix=\$\{prefix\}/g' librtlsdr.pc && \
        sed -i 's/^libdir=.*/libdir=\$\{exec_prefix\}\/lib/g' librtlsdr.pc && \
        sed -i 's/^includedir=.*/includedir=\$\{prefix\}\/include/g' librtlsdr.pc

I have the same problem.. My kal doesn't work..is not searching for frequencies.. what can I do ? ++++ collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: [Makefile:403: kal] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory '/root/kalibrate-rtl/src' make[1]: [Makefile:378: all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/root/kalibrate-rtl' make: *** [Makefile:319: all] Error 2

Thank you
