I tried to build Limesuite for Nvidia Orin NX (arm64, Ubutu 22), but got the following errors:

Thanks for quick response. The update fixed some errors. I still got few errors (dependency related?).

I was able to install missing “gnuplot” and “doxygen”.  
There is still error for "######################################################  
– Missing required packages:

- LinuxKernelHeaders"

I have the following header files under /usr/src":

drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Aug 15 10:51 linux-headers-5.10.192-tegra-ubuntu20.04\_aarch64

Fixed the:

```auto
CMake Error at external/CMakeLists.txt:119 (target_sources):
target_sources may only set INTERFACE properties on INTERFACE targets

```

If you have installed kernel headers you can ignore the warning

```auto
– Missing required packages:
    LinuxKernelHeaders"

```

The cmake detection script does not handle all naming schemes and directories. But the kernel module build system will find them.

Thanks for quick response.  
I commented out the following:  
#find\_package(LinuxKernelHeaders REQUIRED)  
in “LimeSuiteNG/src/comms/PCIe/linux-kernel-module/CMakeList.txt”  
but still got the following errors. There is no “makefile” generated.

The update worked without any error. I was able to run "make’, “sudo make install”, “sudo ldconfig”, “limeGUI”, have Lime XTRX detected and run some tests.  
Thanks!
