Bug 282532 – sys-apps/usb_modeswitch-1.0.2 doesn't compile with the new libusb (dev-libs/libusb-1.0.1)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description megadriver 2009-08-24 07:57:36 UTC]

Running unstable (~x86) here.
When trying to emerge usb_modeswitch, it complains about missing file "usb.h".
It does compile if libusb-compat is installed.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Try to emerge usb_modeswitch not having libusb-compat installed.


Actual Results:  
It will fail, due to missing file "usb.h".


Expected Results:  
Expected to compile, of course.

Maybe usb_modeswitch should depend on libusb-compat instead of libusb?

You need to add the output of emerge --info and the build-log to your bugreport to assist the maintainer.

[Comment 3 megadriver 2009-09-07 18:56:26 UTC]

Looks like the updated libusb (1.0.3), which includes "usb.h", solved this problem.

[Comment 4 Robin Johnson 2009-11-11 07:47:25 UTC]

Fixed as part of libusb cleanup.
