I am assuming you are both using the 2.9 getting linuxcnc docs to install Bookworm,
linuxcnc-uspace-dev is built at the same time as linuxcnc-uspace as documented in the building Linuxcnc chapter
it can be installed with: sudo apt install linuxcnc-uspace-dev
It includes development tools that are not required to run linuxcnc
One of those tools is halcompile which is used to compile custom components.
I don't believe dynamicZ.so is part of Linuxcnc. If it was, the man page would be accessible from the main docs page. It probably been created by halcompile from a source file likely called dynamicZ.comp with a command like:
sudo halcompile --install dynamicZ.comp
So instead of looking for the .so file, you would be better off looking for the .comp file (dynamicZ.comp). You must have got it from somewhere.

That's It!!! Thank you, thank you!
(Dang, Rod, you're amazing. Hope things are going well.)
@Irak, yes, the install instructions at PSNG_V3 are, erm, well... not a finished product. But at least he's documented it somewhere.
One has to crawl through every file and look right above a line or at the top of the file for the instructions to follow.
And I must've done it without remembering or documenting. Anyhow, Rod's right, I now remember I did run halcompile.
Top of PSNG_V3/Your_Config_Folder/post-gui-dynamicZ.hal; it says:
@Irak, does that help?
And Rod is exactly right, there it is: dynamicZ.comp right there in that folder
(And being in the mod, of course, it couldn't be found even when searching for just dynamicZ in the linuxcnc files)
(And x2: searching all of github for dynamicZ.comp gives us.... wait for it... ANOTHER version of PSNG_V3 . Will wonders never cease!
But, that version is 2 commits behind the alkabal version, so I think Alkabal PSNG_V3 is still the one I'm working with. )

Maybe I missed something here, but QTDragon_HD has all these components on-board. Is there a reason you are using stale github stuff?

I tried to download the QTDragon that was from the repository, but it didn't yet support 5 axis.
I saw a post that they added that about a week ago, but when I tried to update using the update instructions , it still wouldn't run 5 axis... and since I had inertia going, I just kept going.
Has the QTDragon 5-axis capable version become one we can get pre-compiled?
(Thanks!)
