install_driver error

[OJthe123]

I installed litexcnc additional extensions branch with poetry.
when I do 'poetry run litexcnc install_driver' it throws errors when compiling litexcnc.c

$ poetry run litexcnc install_driver

Error: Compilation of the driver failed.

is it the poetry environment that causes this problem? linking problems?
or is there a missing declaration of LINELEN?

I did a new install in a virtual maschine with Debian 12 and Linuxcnc 2.9

EDIT:
I installed it with

$: git clone https://github.com/Peter-van-Tol/LiteX-CNC.git
$: cd LiteX-CNC
$: git checkout 11-add-external-extensions-to-litexcnc
$: pip3 install ./ litexcnc[cli]

but the error is still there

I got this same.
Do NOT git checkout 11-add-external-extensions-to-litexcnc.

[Peter-van-Tol]

For my machine I installed it with:

pip install litexcnc[cli] @ git+https://github.com/Peter-van-Tol/LiteX-CNC@11-add-external-extensions-to-litexcnc

My machine works with LinuxCNC 2.8.2, so most likely LINELEN is not defined in the latest version. Will patch this in #11 as soon as I know where this define went.

[Peter-van-Tol]

The definition of LINELEN was moved between 2.8 and 2.9. I've patch the driver for this omission in #11 .
