Hi guys,
I'm trying to cross-compile libhid for the Angstrom Open Embedded
platform using bitbake / ipkg. I'm (still!) using the apt-sources
version of libhid (libhid-0.2.15+20060325) patched with the changeset
here: http://boxster.ghz.cc/projects/libhid/changeset/355
I've got some newbie questions about doing this. Firstly, I've had a
number of autoconf errors when running configure of the form:
"line 2693: 15+20060325-2 - 1) unstable; urgency=low: syntax error in
expression (error token is ") unstable; urgency=low")"
Line 2693 of the configure file looks like this:
MD_MAJOR_VERSION=`echo "libhid (0.2.15+20060325-2.1) unstable;
urgency=low.0.0" | cut -d. -f1`
Also, I'm rather confused by where shared libraries are kept. I can't
find the file _hid.so.0.0.0 anywhere other than
libhid-0.2.15+20060325/debian/libhid0/usr/lib/ where it is compiled as
an Intel binary. As far as I can tell running ./configure && make on
the source does not create a new .so file. Is this correct?
Many thanks all,
Sarah
