From FTDI Support:

We do not call “stime” in the code. There’s probably a library linked which does. We have librt, libpthreads and libc. External links are mostly to GLIBC_2.2.5 however we do have a few to GLIBC_2.7 GLIBC_2.14 GLIBC_2.3.2 GLIBC_2.3

@dk23, how the mentioned error can be reproduced? In any case, perhaps, this error has to be reported to the upstream.

Getting the following error:

AttributeError: /usr/lib/libftd2xx.so: undefined symbol: stime. Did you mean: 'ctime'?

with libc libc-2.33.so

According to the man page stime(2) is deprecated.

The URL for 64 is incorrect, needs updating.

Currently: https://ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX/Linux/libftd2xx-x86_64-1.4.8.gz

Should be: http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX/Linux/libftd2xx-x86_64-1.4.8.tgz

Missing "www." and gz -> tgz

There is a newer version too: https://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX/Linux/libftd2xx-x86_64-1.4.22.tgz

Temporarily took ownership and updated lib URLS

FTDI updated the drivers, which can now be found in: https://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX/Linux/libftd2xx-i386-1.4.22.tgz and https://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX/Linux/libftd2xx-x86_64-1.4.22.tgz

I took temporary ownership of the package to fix the dependency issue with the latest version of libusb.

It turns out that this package probably hasn't actually needed any dependency on the libusb/libusbx package since version 0.4.0 (!), due to libftd2xx being statically linked to an internally provided copy of libusb (which is currently libusb 1.0.20). See my commit (cf00c3f3f3) for more details, if you're interested.

I'm not in a position to really be a maintainer of this package, so I'm going to leave it as an orphan once again, for someone else to pick up; but I figured I would at least fix this problem right now.

due to libusb updated, please keep up with it. libusb>=1.0.8 instead of libusbx>=1.0.8

You can remove the dependency on libusbx. libftd2xx no longer depends on it (it seems to be linked statically to its own version)

I get this message when I run package update.

:: installing libusb (1.0.23-3) breaks dependency 'libusbx>=1.0.8' required by libftd2xx

I would guess that libusbx dependency needs to be replaced with libusb.
