Issue installing

[pinteavlad1]

I recently bought a Rival 110 and wanted linux software for it. I am currently running Linux Mint Cinnamon 18.3 64-bit and tried installing the software from sources. The clone into the directory works fine but when i run sudo pip install . i get an error. I also tried sudo pip install rivalcfg, and this works fine but the version is 2.6.0, which does not support the Rival 110. I've seen another issue with the same error but the creator of that issue said that he doesn't know what changed and it suddently works. The error message i get is: Command "/usr/bin/python -u -c "import setuptools, tokenize;file='/tmp/pip-install-EdhGDR/hidapi/setup.py';f=getattr(tokenize, 'open', open)(file);code=f.read().replace('\r\n', '\n');f.close();exec(compile(code, file, 'exec'))" install --record /tmp/pip-record-gjBPol/install-record.txt --single-version-externally-managed --compile" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-install-EdhGDR/hidapi/ .Thanks in advance :)

For your error, it seems that hidapi (a library required by rivalcfg) cannot be compiled, probably a missing dependency. Install this:

apt install python-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libudev-dev

and try again.

If it does not work, you can try to install the python-hidapi package from your distro repository.

I also tried sudo pip install rivalcfg, and this works fine but the version is 2.6.0, which does not support the Rival 110.

I have to release the 3.0.0, currently you can install it with the following command

pip install rivalcfg==3.0.0b1

Worked by installing python-dev, libusb-1.0-0-dev and libudev-dev. Thank you :)

I added the missing dependencies to the README :)
