After succesfully working with a tikitag on windows, I tried compiling it for linux for a bit more flexibility. After installing pcscd, libpcsclite-dev, libusb-dev and compiling libusb (since it wasn't in the repository I was using), I ran into a little problem.
During the configuring of libnfc I get the following error "checking for LIBPCSCLITE... configure: error: libpcsclite is mandatory."
Anyone got any idea how to resolve this?
Hello,
Anyone got any idea how to resolve this?
You must more information if you want some help 
Which GNU/Linux distribution do you have ?
Which version of this distribution ?
And which version of libnfc do you try to install ?
Optionnaly, could you send me the output of following command line :
pkg-config libpcsclite --libs --cflags
Thanks.
It's a custom version of ubuntu for devices on the ARM processors. It is named 'mojo' and is based on a 8.04 hardy. Or hasty, I'm not sure of that. This was made before the 'official' support by ubuntu for ARM procs.
I downloaded the latest source version of libnfc from this site.
I'll send the output in a bit when I get time to get behind my linux box.
It is named 'mojo' and is based on a 8.04 hardy. Or hasty, I'm not sure of that.
It seems to be "Hasty Hippogriff" which is based on Ubuntu 8.04 'Hardy Heron'
I downloaded the latest source version of libnfc from this site.
Ok, so assume that you download the lastest release 1.2.1
After installing pcscd, libpcsclite-dev, libusb-dev and compiling libusb (since it wasn't in the repository I was using), I ran into a little problem.
If you have installed libusb-dev, this should depends on libusb-0.1-4 or libusb-0.1-udeb which are both in repository according to http://mojo.handhelds.org/files/buildst … plete.html
So your previously compiled libusb is not needed and should be removed to prevent from loading the "wrong" library.
You should also be sure that "pkg-config" is installed (this package is in your repo), after that, I'll need previously requested command line output
pkg-config libpcsclite --libs --cflags and the complete output of
./configureIt seems to be "Hasty Hippogriff" which is based on Ubuntu 8.04 'Hardy Heron'
That is correct.
Ok, so assume that you download the lastest release 1.2.1
Correct again
libnfc 1.2.1
libusb 1.0.3
If you have installed libusb-dev, this should depends on libusb-0.1-4 or libusb-0.1-udeb which are both in repository according to http://mojo.handhelds.org/files/buildst … plete.html
So your previously compiled lib is not needed and should be removed to prevent from loading the "wrong" library.
Hmmm, when tried installing with 'libusb' it didn't work, but I didn't check dependancies. Compiling of libusb finished without problems though.
You should also be sure that "pkg-config" is installed (this package is in your repo), after that, I'll need previously requested command line output
pkg-config libpcsclite --libs --cflags
$ sudo pkg-config libpcsclite --libs --cflags
-I/usr/include/PCSC -lpcsclite
and the complete output of
./configure
I'll put that in a seperate post.
ok, weirdest thing just happened. Instead of posting an old ./configure, I decided to run it anew, just incase anything changed.
This time however, it compiled correctly! Only thing that really differed, was the installation of pkg-config (and maybe a reboot or three, but I'm fairly reboot concious, so that shouldn't be the problem)
However, now I ran into another error while executing nfc-mftool.
nfc-mftool: error while loading shared libraries: libnfc.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directoryThis was after a succesful compile and a reboot. I haven't connected any nfc device at the moment.
Any idea what might be causing this?
Next up: testing with a nfc device hooked up and/or reinstallation of packages
And here a full install/configure log.

current issue: linked library missing libnfc.so.*
probably fixed by correctly linking the /usr/local/lib
nfc-mftool: error while loading shared libraries: libnfc.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directoryThis one I can actually guess. The path is just not known to the system, so nfc-mftool cannot call on the library. I'll link it up in a bit and retry.
So I think most problems weren't that big, just the lack of pkg-config and the weird distro I'm using at the moment. When I get it working I'll type out a guide for other users of mojo/hasty.
I have to take off for a bit, but I'll post wheter I'm succesful or not.
Gratz rconty for all your help so far.
And just as I expected,
$sudo ldconfigfixed library linking problem!
It seemed the libraries were there, just not linked to. After checking the folders and finding the actual files there, I suspected as much,
So now, what seems in order so far:
Compiled libnfc
sudo /etc/init.d/pcsc start
nfc-mftool runs without syntaxes and gives the normal output (manpage)
However now on the input of syntaxes, or when using nfc-anticol / nfc-list, the program/console doesn't output anything. It just 'hangs' waiting for something. I have to manually stop the process with ctrl+c.
I think this is the last hurdle, can't think of anything I missed.
Any suggestions would be great.

Hey Keasis,
issue: missing libusb
fixed by dependancy libusb-dev
Right: libusb-dev would install libusb-0.1-4 on your distro, IMHO.
issue: missing LIBPCSCLITE
fixed by installing pkg-config?
Exact: ./configure use pkg-config to check if PCSC-lite is installed.
And just as I expected,
$sudo ldconfigfixed library linking problem!
Good to ear
the program/console doesn't output anything. It just 'hangs' waiting for something. I have to manually stop the process with ctrl+c.
Humm.. That's weird but there are ways to debug.
First, you could recompile libnfc with debug mode enabled. To do this, on top libnfc source directory:
make clean
./configure --enable-debug
make
sudo make installNow, when you run nfc-list for example, you should have more debug information.
Second, you could run pcscd in debug mode too :
sudo /etc/init.d/pcscd stop
pcscd --foreground --debugIf theses outputs haven't enought sense for you, feel free to copy/paste here.
Hope it helps.

A small update. I still haven't been able to pinpoint the problem, I didn't have much time to experiment aswell. One thing I noticed is that on the reader, the light stays on (instead of alternating between on/off, as it does with the win binaries).
rconty (or roel perhaps?), you have any suggestions to try out? I'm going to try and compile most things from the latests versions soon, and it'll probably magically fix the issue; however, then we'll never find out what was wrong
(besides from me using a weird-ass device to do my linux bussiness on 
)
Hey, sorry
rconty (or roel perhaps?), you have any suggestions to try out?
According to your pcsc debug trace, this package (or CCID package) is too old to support your reader.
So, you could fix it many ways :
* Upgrade your distribution version (if possible)
* Or found a new repository which provide updated package for your dist (if possible)
* Or rebuild a new package from debian (or ubuntu) packages updated sources. (suggested)
* Or compile and install "by hands" equivalent of packages : pcscd, libpcsclite and libccid (last chance 
)

You don't need (and it is not recommanded at this time) to fetch development version of libnfc.
I have tested libnfc 1.2.1 with libpcsclite/pcscd 1.5.5 and ccid 1.3.11: it compile and runs fine.
Hope it helps.

1) unfortunately, that depends on the manufacturer of the device. (smartdevices inc.) no source has been released as of yet. Or untill Mer finally reaches a usuable edition. (currently @ v0.15)
2) Specific repos are rare.
3+4) I suspected that libccid might be the problem, however the version in the repo is 1.3.1. Which should support the tikitag.

I wasn't planning on getting the development versions, just the latest sources and compiling most parts on the system itself. I just did this for libccid, but it didn't work after all.
Anyway, what I did so far:
Compiled libccid (probably not needed since the v1.3 was in the repo)
Compiled libnfc with debug options.

And then something I never expected. Just as I posted this, another version of the OS was realized just now. Based on Karmic Koala and armel architecture (instead of arm). This changes a LOT.
I'll be running some tests coming week. Don't bother with the above issues, these are moot now.
Hello,
And then something I never expected. Just as I posted this, another version of the OS was realized just now. Based on Karmic Koala and armel architecture (instead of arm). This changes a LOT.
Great. Let us know how this new release work with libnfc.
Thanks.
It worked perfectly. All the packages installed without problems and were up-to-date. If I had known the new OS was around the corner, I wouldn't have wasted so much time on it (or yours for that matter).
Connected to NFC reader: ACR122U102 - PN532 v1.4 (0x07)

Hi Keasis,
It worked perfectly. [...]
Great : That's a very good news. If you made some projects based on libnfc, feel free to post in "External Projects that use libnfc" section.
Succes! Thanks for all the help, regardless. I have learned a lot from it.
My pleasure.. Thanks for having take time to try and test purposed solutions and clearly report them.
Unfortunately, we haven't really found the problem... Probably too old CCID version and/or PCSC-lite version.
