Prerequisites
The prerequisites for the SDK are:
A few external dependencies are required to use the library. These can be installed like this:
sudo add-apt-repository universe
sudo apt update
sudo apt install libcurl4 libasound2
To run the pre-built JabraDemo program, these are also required:
sudo apt install libqt5gui5 qt5-default
Udev rules
To be able to communicate with Jabra devices with non-root privileges it is required to create a udev rule for Jabra devices. Place the udev rule in /etc/udev/rules.d with a name that respect the order by which rules are processed (in lexicographical order). By example:
sudo <your-favorite-text-editor> /etc/udev/rules.d/99-jabra.rules
The content of the file is:
ATTRS{idVendor}=="0b0e", MODE="0666", GROUP="users"
After creating the udev file (as root), reload the udev rules using:
sudo udevadm control --reload
Reattach your Jabra device it order to get new permissions assigned.
