Have trouble installing libphidget22 on Linux for Python
Posted: Wed Jul 11, 2018 11:48 am
Hi there,
I'm having trouble installing the libphidget22. It's not my first time install this lib on the Linux machine. However, it's my first time install on a Debian Jessie machine which doesn't have GUI.
I followed the steps here: https://www.phidgets.com/docs/OS_-_Linu ... _Downloads
I always had the problem finding the libraries for general installing. So, I tried Specify a different install folder during compile, the command ran successfully but the program still can't find the module. I tried to add /usr/local/lib to the system-wide library path, but I kept getting permission denied even though I ran as root. Here's the assertion
I also tried Debian Install, but can't really run the second step.
Sorry for the messy description, what should I do to successfully install the lib and find the module in python? Thanks greatly for your help!
