Hi All,

Newbie question here. Trying to build libindi 0.9.6 on Mac OS X.8.2. Following the instructions in INSTALL:

Using ports I have confirmed I have installed:
libusb 1.0
libnova 0.15.0
cfitsio 3.310

Output follows:


ecd-mbpr: mkdir libindi_build
ecd-mbpr: cd libindi_build
ecd-mbpr: cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr . ../libindi-0.9.6

CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND.
Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files:
LIBUSB_LIBRARIES (ADVANCED)

ecd-mbpr:
ecd-mbpr: env | grep USB

As you can see at the end I have tried setting some USB env but not sure about LIBUSB or "LIBUSB_LIBRARIES (ADVANCED)".

Advice appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, I suspect, that libusb-compat package is missing... if you want to make sure that you have all necessary dependencies installed, install indi package directly from macports and then rebuild indi from source to replace it.

But frankly speaking, even easier is to avoid macports at all and to install native OSX INDI binary distribution from here . You will save 0.5 GB of disk space and lot of troubles

libusb-compat dependency was already included in Indi package.

Iibindi 9.6.0 installs Ok on my Mac, but is OSX 10.7.5. My hardware don't allow OSX 10.8.
