Nope, you haven't - and thanks for mentioning it, it looks great! (I'm especially looking forward to checking out PulseView at the time being) In fact, I signed up for sigrok-devel, and I'm cross-posting this reply to them in CC; so reposting the link which this is about: > http://sdaaubckp.sourceforge.net/attenload ... maybe there is something in there, that could be useful to the `sigrok` project. Btw, also got a report that the application works with a model (ADS 1102CAL) different from the development device (ADS 1202CL+), so that looks good - more in here: http://www.eevblog.com/forum/projects-designs-and-technical-stuff/attenload-please-report-here-if-your-atten-%28or-related%29-scope-works/ > Another point, if you want to build against libusb.git then I > recommend to build libusb-1.0 as such: > > ./configuring --prefix=~/something && make install > Thanks for noting that, I have updated the README with a pointer. The thing about this, is that I don't like the `make install` part: even after some years on Linux, one of the things that still freaks me out is the contents of /bin, /usr/bin, /usr/lib/local/bin (and the rest of the $PATH) :) So the way I handle that, is I trust `apt-get` will take care of things; and if I have to build something, I prefer to build it in a separate folder, without any installation, and test it from there - so I can also compare to the "vanilla" install of a package (for me, in Ubuntu). The `make install` can mess things up for me, so I no longer know which build is being run; for a recent frustration I had with this, please see http://unix.stackexchange.com/q/53871/8069 :) That is why I often miss instructions on how to build and run stuff "out-of-tree" (by analogy to kernel module terminology); and that is why I wanted to include those instructions.
