hi

i am trying to compile this logitech applet
extracted it to a dir and su rooted:

   ERROR!  libusb library not found, get it from
   http://libusb.sourceforge.net
   or use the --with-libusb-libraries option, if you have it installed
   in an unusual place

root logi #:emerge -ptv libusb

These are the packages that I would merge, in reverse order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild   R   ] dev-libs/libusb-0.1.8  -debug -doc 0 kB

Total size of downloads: 0 kB


i tried it with " --with-libusb-libraries=/usr/lib/libusb"
but it fails again with the same output (as it looks to me like there is a problem with the library itself)

i am now using the 2005.0 amd64 profile and compiling the applet worked using 2004.3 amd64
(i messed up migrating and a winxp install and therefore i am now using a clean 2005.0 install)
dont know if it is a amd64 problem or a bug in libusb/logitech app
please tell me if i am in the wrong forums

Problem is indeed with the libusb package. You have to emerge libusb-0.1.10a :

Code:
ix logitech_applet-0.4test1 # ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64" emerge -p libusb

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild     U ] dev-libs/libusb-0.1.10a [0.1.8]


Then it finally works.
Unfortunately my MX1000 doesn't seem to be supported :
Code:
ix logitech_applet-0.4test1 # /usr/sbin/logitech_applet -c   
002/003     046D/C50E   M-RAG97         MX1000 Laser Mouse
   Channel 2    Battery: 5    Single channel   No 800cpi support   No Horiz Roller   No Vert Roller   2 butt.


2 buttons ?? No rollers ?
