The instructions are out-of-date. Trying this morning has been interesting.

libusb-0.1 needs pkg-config which is easy... except that libusb-0.1 seems to
have turned into a wrapper for libusb-1.0 so you have to install that too.

(which makes me think it's time to apply that libusb-1.0 patch I wrote a while
back :)

Also, zzip is now required. Install was straight forward. Though it takes way
too long to generate documentation.

There's a compile error in usblan.cpp as well... I have a diff for that.

Finally, moving to a specific version requirement of libconcord inside
concordance's Makefile.am breaks mac... because you have to specify
"libconcord.so.3" but on mac it's "libconcord.3.so"... gah, libtool should be
better. I think we'll have to go back to just requiring libconcord, but
checking for the right version with an autoconf rule.

Anyway, I finally got it installed, but it doesn't work:


[phil@foobar concordance]$ sudo concordance -vi

ERROR: Couldn't initializing libconcord: Error connecting or finding the remote
NOTE: if you recently plugged in your remote and you have a newer remote, you
may need to wait a few additional seconds for your remote to be fully connected.


That's with my 890 and my 880... the Info.plist file may need a new format or
something... I also remember when I wrote the mac support, the libusb stuff
was pretty shaky...
