Dear Radek,

I was reinstalling the astroberry-diy drivers, with this one I have a problem, „cannot be located“

sudo apt-get install librtimulib-dev?

Any idea?

Best, Helge

I don't think there is a binary package available. You have to compile it yourself from sources

Thanks, but about seven month ago, that command was fine. How come it is no longer available?

How does compile from source work? Download, DCMAKE...make...make install? I have to admit, I am still lacking the Linux basics - would be great if you could describe...

RTIMULib has always been a requirement for indi_altimu driver, part of Astroberry drivers suit.
Requirements
============
* INDI available here http://indilib.org/download.html
* RTIMULib (for Astroberry AltIMU) available here https://github.com/RPi-Distro/RTIMULib
* bcm2835 (for Astroberry Focuser and Astroberry Board) available here http://www.airspayce.com/mikem/bcm2835/

If you don't use IMU sensor (accelerometer, magnetometer, gyro, atmospheric pressure) you can disable compilation of this driver by commenting Astroberry AltIMU section of CMakeLists.txt (lines 56-67) which should look like so:
################ Astroberry AltIMU ################
 
#set(indi_rpialtimu_SRCS
#        ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/rpi_altimu.cpp
#   )
 
#add_executable(indi_rpialtimu ${indi_rpialtimu_SRCS})
#target_link_libraries(indi_rpialtimu indidriver RTIMULib)
#install(TARGETS indi_rpialtimu RUNTIME DESTINATION bin )
#install(FILES indi_rpialtimu.xml DESTINATION ${INDI_DATA_DIR})
 

If you use the sensor you can either compile the RTIMULib library from source (see instruction here ) or download and install a binary version (from here )

Hi Radek,

will your indi-altimu and indi-rpigps driver feedback location and the position on Kstars star map like starpi does?
