makefiles/cmake/vmcs.cmake - Line 54 - makefiles/cmake/scripts/install_vmcs is missing from repo.

interface/vchiq_arm/CMakeLists.txt - Line 9 - etc/10-vchiq.rules is also missing.

Other than that it builds and installs fine natively on the Pi.

Thanks Broadcom!

Update:
Oh wait, it's also missing bcm_host.h and doesn't install a lot of interface headers...
Maybe repo was never ment as a complete /opt/vc replacement, in that case install procedure is probably not a big deal :)

Yes, it's just meant for building the /opt/vc/lib binaries.
The hello_pi examples and the include files are still handled in firmware repo.

I don't understand why isn't this repo complete? So this must be used combined with firmware repo? Makes no sense.
Install fails as described by @pilfs . Any plans of fixing this?

yeah, it makes more sense to build all of the userspace tools/libs from the userland repo
kernel from the linux repo
copy the pre-made firmware from the firmware repo
and then just run a root image you made thru your own means

@agherzan

Indeed. That was my view too.

It should be a complete replacement (IMHO), it has the bcm_host implementation, but it's not connected to anything... I'm thinking it's still a work in progress or was this just a release and forget it move by the RPI foundation? why is this not fixed yet?

bcm_host and hello_pi demos are now included.
Userland is now the source of the files and libraries in the firmware repo.
10-vchiq.rules and install_vmcs are not required now.

@popcornmix I could kiss you! but you will have to settle for a beer.

@popcornmix seems like you missed "bcm_host.h", I see it got added to the repo but no content (besides license information). Is it getting deprecated?

EDIT: *** found the problem *** - pull request sent

As far as I could see, bcm_host.h was correct, but in wrong location. I've moved it. Is that okay?

Thanks popcornmix!
All is well now as far as I can tell.

@popcornmix it was more than just the location, look at your own commit (83e1597), but thanks for fixing it anyway. 👍
