Re: [Question #97737]: Message "Unable to claim interface"

 

Question #97737 on igotu2gpx changed:
https://answers.edge.launchpad.net/igotu2gpx/+question/97737

Michael Hofmann proposed the following answer:
Hmm, while reading the last comment it seems to be more confusing than
useful. Let's try again.

Either:
- install "chrpath" (e.g., "yum install chrpath" for a Fedora system). This program, if found by the make system, allows to specify where libraries are installed in the executable itself.
- recompile the program with "qmake && make clean qmake all"
- now, "sudo bin/debug/igotu2gpx" or "sudo bin/debug/igotugui" should work.

Or:
- call it with "sudo sh -c 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH=bin/debug bin/debug/igotu2gpx'"

There are two different problems you describe. The first is that you
have to run the program as root (or with sudo) to get access to the gps
tracker, and the second is that if you compile igotu2gpx yourself, the
libraries are not found.
