[BitPim-devel] USB Error on Linux

[Wei Hu]

Hi,

When I tried to build the usb module I got the following error:

~/bitpim-svn/bitpim/src/native/usb$ swig -python -I/usr/include libusb.i
/usr/include/usb.h:69: Error: Syntax error in input(3).
/usr/include/usb.h:104: Warning(312): Nested struct not currently
supported (ignored).

/usr/include/usb.h:257: Warning(312): Nested struct not currently

/usr/include/usb.h:268: Warning(312): Nested struct not currently
supported (ignored).

I've attached the header file usb.h.
My system is running Debian unstable.
The version of libusb-dev is 0.1.12 and the kernel is 2.6.16.

Please try patching libusb.i as follows:

--- bitpim-0.9.07.dfsg.1.orig/src/native/usb/libusb.i
