<pepijndevos> ImportError: libboost_python38.so.1.72.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
<pepijndevos> weird nextpnr boost issues today :(
<pepijndevos> was hoping to update the apicula docs for the nextpnr target, but in testing the docs... can't build nextpnr at all
<pepijndevos> ah probably need to rebuild trellis
<pepijndevos> Was doing all targets I have installed, and trellis is still linked to old python probably
<trabucayre> seems this
<trabucayre> I like a tool for gentoo able to check if libs installed are broken
<pepijndevos> trabucayre, RUNBER works great by the way, using this command: openFPGALoader -b littleBee -c ft232 pack.fs
<trabucayre> pepijndevos: great! now a PR is welcome :)
<trabucayre> Just to have an idea, how many people have you through patreon (me included) ?
<pepijndevos> trabucayre, you mean a PR to add it as a separate board?
<pepijndevos> Currently 31 active patrons
<trabucayre> it's more clean to have an explicit board (and an reference in the README)
<trabucayre> okay for many boards this entry is a bit useless
<trabucayre> not too bad 31 patrons
<pepijndevos> uhu
<pepijndevos> Actually... it's a bit weird that the trenz board is called "Littlebee". That's the family of Gowin FPGAs, the board is called TEC0117
<trabucayre> true...
<pepijndevos> Given the name you'd expect it to work for all littlebee boards... which is kinda true except this one has a different ftdi chip
<trabucayre> I hesitate to rename (backward compatibility)
<pepijndevos> understandable
<trabucayre> if I change this I must (at least) create a PR for litex (and maybe others projects) ...
<trabucayre> maybe the good way is to add an entry for TEC0117 and hide under the carpet littlebee :)
<trabucayre> (I don't know if this expression is not French only) :)
<daveshah> it isn't, although sweep or brush rather than hide would probably be more common in english
<trabucayre> ok
<pepijndevos> "so what is your artic vault contribution" "well so I named a thing and then I named it differently"
<daveshah> that's at least 50% of software engineering...
<pepijndevos> true
