Homebrew DevkitPro error

[Astrr]

When I tried to compile a 3dsx homebrew, this error appeared.

linking TSOI.elf
g:/devkitpro/devkitarm/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-none-eabi/6.3.0/../../../../arm-none-eabi/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lctru
collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [/g/tsoy/TSOI.elf] Error 1
"make": *** [build] Error 2

What should I do to fix it? Ask any questions if you need more info.

It means you haven't yet installed ctrulib. (https://github.com/smealum/ctrulib)

Just download the repository, and run "make install" in the root of the libctru folder, then it should install to your DevkitPro installation. After that, try again.

You don't have ctrulib installed but that also means you don't have devkitpro installed as ctrulib is installed with the environment. Btw, as said above, reinstall devkitpro with everything selected (PSP is not needed) or make install un ctrulib máster to install It

I've tried. Error appears.

C:\Users\XXX>make install G:\libb\libctru
make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop.

C:\Users\XXX>make G:\libb\libctru
make: Nothing to be done for `G:\libb\libctru'.

make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop.

C:\Users\XXX>make install G:\libb\libctru

C:\Users\XXX>

What am i doing wrong?

Seem you're trying to compile the wrong folder. You must do the make install where the makefile is

In CMD, "cd" to the directory where the makefile is.

cd g:\libb\libctru

Then just run "make install" (and nothing else)

I think everything is in the right place, but it doesn't work

In Windows Explorer, go to File -> Open Command Prompt while inside the directory with the Makefile, then type "make install". Alternatively, you can do what I said earlier and "cd" to that directory.
Can't stress this enough.

Okay, do this: delete C:\devkitPro (if you got It installed there), download devkitpro installer and run it (install It normally). It should come with ctrulib installed by default.

IT WORKS! Thank you!)

Maybe copying libctru.a to "/DevkitPro/DevkitARM/arm-none-eabi/lib/" will do the trick, since the Makefile scans for specified lib files in that specific directory. This should be considered a temporary workaround though, since the Makefile should also pick up libctru from /Devkitpro/libctru/lib as well, but it sometimes doesn't for some weird reason (probably user error during setup)... I had that problem once, and I still do to this day, but that's how I worked aroud that issue anyway...

If it returns a bunch of different errors after that, try also merging the whole "include" folder from ctrulib with the one located at /DevkitPro/DevkitARM/arm-none-eabi/include/ as well.

But still,

this appears. I used make through CMD and Prog's Notepad
P.S. I can't use forums, sorry for re-posting etc

Maybe i'll send you makefile/the whole project and you will check it?

Sure thing. I'm very curious to see what's wrong here...
