[Linux] User is a noob - Unable to locate main.h

[parippu-vada]

Hi I am trying to set up librepods on my LinuxMint OS and was trying to follow the instructions from /linux. I could not locate main.h where the instruction asks to input my phone's MAC address, but I am unable to locate it. I can see a main.cpp where i did find a PHONE_MAC_ADDRESS placeholder. I am unsure if main.cpp is same as main.h and I'd really appreciate if you could help.

Yep, the documentation is old. It's in the main.cpp now, but I will make it a setting alter (so you cam change it in the app)

Thank you so much for your response! Is Linux still in active development?

I'm going to update my phone's mac address and build the app (I guess just the linux folder) and see if it works.

I have built the app and I have made a few notes for my system

• I have saved my phone's bluetooth MAC address in main.cpp

• While building the application, I had a cmake error:
  Could NOT find OpenGL: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libOpenGL.so.
'Could NOT find XKB (missing: XKB_LIBRARY XKB_INCLUDE_DIR) (Required is at least version "0.5.0") '

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.28/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:230 (message): Could NOT find OpenSSL, try to set the path to OpenSSL root folder in the system variable OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR (missing: OPENSSL_CRYPTO_LIBRARY OPENSSL_INCLUDE_DIR)

• I was able to solve this issue by installing libssl-dev and libxkbcommon-dev
  sudo apt install libssl-dev libxkbcommon-dev

• I completed the installation and was able to launch the app. After this state I am still unsure how to connect my airpods to my PC. I tried normal bluetooth pairing, but that seemed to fail

you can make yourself a main.h and link it to main.cpp
