Issue with libhidapi-libusb.so

[wispii]

Been trying to use joycontrol on my linux PC, but I keep encountering this Issue

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./run_controller_cli.py", line 10, in
from joycontrol import logging_default as log, utils
File "/home/z-r1nwoomy/joycontrol/joycontrol/utils.py", line 5, in
import hid
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/hid/init.py", line 83, in
hidapi.hid_get_input_report.argtypes = [ctypes.c_void_p, ctypes.c_char_p, ctypes.c_size_t]
File "/usr/lib/python3.8/ctypes/init.py", line 386, in getattr
func = self.getitem(name)
File "/usr/lib/python3.8/ctypes/init.py", line 391, in getitem
func = self._FuncPtr((name_or_ordinal, self))
AttributeError: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libhidapi-libusb.so: undefined symbol: hid_get_input_report

I have tried re-installing all the modules needed, as well as building hidapi manually, but nothing has helped.

What is your OS version?

What is your OS version?

Linux Mint 20.3

Did you make sure to move your compiled libhidapi-hidraw.so.0 to
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libhidapi-hidraw.so.0?
And make sure you change the architecture. Mine is arm-linux. yours might my x86_64_<something>

[wispii]

Yeah, I made sure it was X86_64-linux-gnu when doing the copy commands.

[darrenchang]

That's strange. Do you have a raspberry pi that you try this on? I'm using pi 3 and it works flawless. I have to compile my own libhidapi-hidraw.so.0 on pi 3 as well.

[wispii]

Sadly no.
