Re: [Qemu-devel] git master: usb-host needs additional parameters - no documentation which

[Erik Rull]

Hi Gerd,

I only have libusb (0.1 and 1.0) installed. Is there a chance to get an 
error message a bit earlier - or a warning that the usb-host support was 
disabled? configure doesn't print out a libusb - disabled message when not 
passing the libusb-parameter.

I tried now explicitly with --enable-libusb - fails :-(
I would like to point to a different version of libusb - my built machine 
has the sources for the latest libusb but not in the location where it is 
expected for a standard distribution...
My target system has this library available but there I can't compile, so 
qemu should run there.

I'm really interested getting qemu running again, but I'm running from 
trouble to trouble now for more than 4 weeks - python, ACPI, USB,...

Thanks.

Best regards,

Erik
