usbguard package

[Peteri42]

Can i ask why when i install the usbguard package from some manager (apt or zypper) it does install the .so but not the .pc so CMAKE can't find anything when i search for it but when i install it from this repo it does install the .pc file.

usually, development files are not part of the ordinary release but rather part of the "development" part of the package.
You can use, e.g. packages.ubuntu.com to look for your desired file. You'll find it here: https://packages.ubuntu.com/mantic/amd64/libusbguard-dev/filelist

Aren't there any messages in the journal indicating the root cause? When you face a Start request repeated too quickly. Failed with tesult 'exit-code' error, you will have to check the error message before. There should be some.

This is all it says.

I tried running it on a fresh ubuntu VM and i run into the same problem. I install all packages that are in readme, run ./configure with systemd, install it, generate rules and the usbguard service itself works even the CLI but i can't seem to get the dbus running. Is there something else i'm missing?

Why not to use official usbguard package?
