Build to Linux (ubuntu 9.04)

[Jesper Vandborg]

Just as a heads up, this is one of my first time doing a make.

I follow this how to
http://mcuee.blogspot.com/2007/06/pickit-2-under-linux-mini-howto.html

but when I do the make I get these errors

gcc -g -Wall -D_GNU_SOURCE -I/usr/local/include -DLINUX -DUSE_DETACH -
DCLAIM_USB -o pk2main.o -c pk2main.c

Firstly it is recommended now to use pk2cmd for Linux. pk2-2.0x
does not support PICKit 2 firmware v2.x.

pk2cmd is here:
http://www.microchip.com/pickit2

Secondly you need to install libusb-dev package (for both pk2cmd
and pk2).
sudo apt-get install libusb-dev
