Hello,

it seems libPS4 won't compile on a freshly installed Ubuntu 17.04.
No idea if this is a regression caused by the GCC version.

I'm trying to compile it under macOS, is this related to the problem? I know very little about x86 assembly.

the only workaround if i copy the content from
/home/user/Desktop/SDK/libPS4/include
To
/home/user/Desktop/SDK/libusbfatfs/include
not sure if am doing the right thing

**Hi,

I have installed llvm and binutils (+ reboot); when I try 'make' in libPS4 and libUSBfatfs I get the following error.**

If I run make on libusbfatfs, I'll get an fatal error: ps4.h: No such file or directory

When ever I try to compile any of the examples or anything like PS4API-5.05 I get the following error.

Hello. I'm using Ubuntu 16.04.2 and trying to build a payload. I also tried with leaving the Main.c file as is but still get the same error when attempting a build. SDK was setup successfully and I can build example Bin's.

This is an issue with Ubuntu 17 and above, open the file include/type.h:

sudo nano include/type.h

and comment this line:

typedef uint32_t __dev_t;
