Hello all,
i am trying to compile libusb-1.0 to put in the toolchain, to get a working oscam running on my wndr3700v2. But I have many troubles. First of all, i have installed a stable release (kernel 2.6), compiled oscam and all works great. Then I have installed a trunk release of openwrt (a snapshot downloaded from official page), then oscam does not works anymore. So i have download sources to compile openwrt by myself, selecting ONLY "make toolchain.." in menuconfig options, waited, then in staging_dir i have the toolchain for openwrt. The next step i have to do is put libusb-1.0 into toolchain. But, when i run the command:

./configure CC=/home/jerrino77/router/trunk/staging_dir/toolchain-mips_r2_gcc-4.6-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33/bin/mips-openwrt-linux-uclibc-gcc-4.6.3 --target=mips-linux --host=mips-linux --prefix=/home/jerrino77/router/trunk/staging_dir/toolchain-mips_r2_gcc-4.6-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33/usr --exec-prefix=/home/jerrino77/router/trunk/staging_dir/toolchain-mips_r2_gcc-4.6-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33/usr CC=/home/jerrino77/router/trunk/staging_dir/toolchain-mips_r2_gcc-4.6-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33/bin/mips-openwrt-linux-uclibc-gcc-4.6.3

that is the right command that with openwrt toolchain from backfire works great, the output is

Why does not works? there is some new option to give in ./configure variabiles between gcc-4.3.3 (that, i repeat, works) and gcc-4.6.3?

Thanks in advance (and sorry for my poor english!!)

You have to pass STAGING_DIR="/home/jerrino77/router/trunk/staging_dir/toolchain-mips_r2_gcc-4.6-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33/" to your configure command.

Thaks mate, it works!!!

i have compiled libusb 1.0.8 with suces but not oscam.can anyone help me how to use the staging_dir in compilatin fase of oscam

Hi Jerrino77,

Could you please describe how you build oscam for backfire? Do you created only the binary or a complete package? Is it necessary to build a new libusb if you choose the svn backfire? Thanks for your help.

Hello all, i'm here again with another trouble.. First of all, i have a question: during menuconfig i have select to compile libusb-1.0, libusb, openssl, pcsclite, and make do everything fine. But, in the staging_dir toolchain dir, there is no track of libusb-1.0.a, libusb.a libpcsclite.a and openssl. Why?

btw, i'm trying to put this libraries from sources by myself. No problem with openssl and libusb-1.0, but i have many troubles to put libusb-0.1.4, required by pcsc-lite. I need this to get support for PC/SC readers on Oscam (that i have  made fine). these are my steps:

./configure CC=/opt/trunk/staging_dir/toolchain-mips_r2_gcc-4.6-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33.2/bin/mips-openwrt-linux-uclibc-gcc --target=mips-linux --host=mips-linux --prefix=/opt/trunk/staging_dir/toolchain-mips_r2_gcc-4.6-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33.2 --exec-prefix=/opt/staging_dir/toolchain-mips_r2_gcc-4.6-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33.2 STAGING_DIR=/opt/trunk/staging_dir/toolchain-mips_r2_gcc-4.6-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33.2 LD=/opt/trunk/staging_dir/toolchain-mips_r2_gcc-4.6-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33.2/bin/mips-openwrt-linux-uclibc-ld

and this are the last lines of the output:

checking for mips-linux-pkg-config... no
checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for LIBUSB_1_0... no
configure: error: Package requirements (libusb-1.0 >= 0.9.1) were not met:

No package 'libusb-1.0' found

but libusb-1.0.a is into /opt/trunk/staging_dir/toolchain-mips_r2_gcc-4.6-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33.2/lib

What's my fault?
Thanks

Up.. help plz

Make sure <OpenWRT root directory>/build_dir/target-mips_r2_gcc-4.6-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33.2/libusb-1.0 directory exists. If not, you will need to manually execute to compile the libusb-1.0 package, i.e. make package/libusb-1.0/compile.

In the dir you told me there is a dir called libusb-1.0.9 I try your tip, it seems to compile fine, but i get the same error. Then i try a "dirty trick", creating a symlink called "libusb1.0" that points at libusb-1.0.9.. nothing
don't know.... There is another way to put these files in toolchain?

after "make package/libusb/compile" i've found files I need not in  /opt/trunk/staging_dir/toolchain-mips_r2_gcc-4.6-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33.2/lib but in /opt/trunk/staging_dir/target-mips_r2_uClibc-0.9.33.2/usr/lib i don't know why....

good, i've found all the files i need in several folders undre /trunk.. copied in toolchain folder and everything worked fine..

Some problem with OpenWrt-SDK-ar71xx-for-linux-i486-gcc-4.6-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33.2. I try compile tar, gzip and gawk and saw this log:

Solved. Just need to install ccache util.

Yeah bingo!

Why are you reviving a four year old thread just to post an inanity??
