Hi all, I recently moved from windows to linux and while everything has been smooth so far i can’t get around installing libusb.I’m trying to install avrdude and as from the tutorial here libusb and libusb-dev are needed .I have tried doing
Zypper install libusb
but i get this in return
'libusb' not found in package names. Trying capabilities.
'libusb-0_1-4' providing 'libusb' is already installed.
From what I understand in that statement is that libusb is already installed but when I compile avrdude it states that libusb not found .Naturally i’d turn to google but it seems like I don’t understand what the above output implies.Could someone please give me some pointers as to what I should do .Thanks
You will have the ‘libusb’ package installed by default (part of install). It is likely the associated ‘devel’ libraries you require (libusb-1_0-devel), along with other probable requirements.
No need to compile. It is available as RPM package

Hi
When compiling and it spits out not finding something, it’s generally
the headers etc which are in the corresponding devel package. In your
case install libusb-1_0-devel.
