Raspberry Pi 4 & MESA 7i92

HI,
I've been working this issue for about a week now and I seem to be unable to install mesa flash on RPI4. I've followed the instructions on GitHub (jetthorton) but no success. Here is the output from the install command and any help is appreciated. BTW I can ping the 7i92 from the RPI
Thank you

Another tidbit of information
pi@cnc:~/mesaflash/mesaflash $ uname -a

I just cloned a copy and built mesaflash on stock Armbian on a RPI4
without issue. You might try make clean and make again

Heres what I get:

Thank you for the help and I took your advice of using "make clean" and then went through the same installation procedure and received the same response which is different then what you got on your RPI. Here is the response from linux
pi@cnc:~/mesaflash/mesaflash $ sudo make install
gcc -D_GNU_SOURCE -O0 -g -I/usr/include -c mesaflash.c
rm -f libanyio.a mesaflash
rm: cannot remove 'mesaflash': Is a directory

Here is the response from the "make" command

Any other thoughts are appreciated

Can you try _not_ running make install or sudo anything
in other words cd to the source directory
type:
make clean
then type:
make

I believe this is what you mean?

pi@cnc:~/mesaflash/mesaflash $ make clean
rm -f *.o libanyio.a mesaflash pci_encoder_read pci_analog_write

Sounds like you have accidentally created a mesaflash subdirectory

cd to the source directory and type:
rm -rf mesaflash
and then
make clean
make

Doesn't appear to have errored out.

pi@cnc:~/mesaflash/mesaflash $ rm -rf mesaflash
pi@cnc:~/mesaflash/mesaflash $ make clean

Kind of making progress-

Thank you, Now I'll see if I can access the 7i92.

You should be able to install it now with sudo make install
