CLI compiling with Debian Sid: arduino-core

Projects Interfacing w/ Software on the Computer

Hello I'm trying to compile sketches by Command Line, using make, instead of using the Arduino IDE.
This is on a Debain Sid AMD-64, using package arduino-core version 1:1.0+dfsg-4 . Compiling with the IDE works good. My board is an Arduino Uno v.2 .

My Makefile looks like:

ARDUINO_DIR = /usr/share/arduino

#TARGET       = CLItest
#ARDUINO_LIBS = LiquidCrystal

BOARD_TAG    = uno
MCU          = atmega328
F_CPU        = 16000000L
ARDUINO_PORT = /dev/ttyACM0

#AVR_TOOLS_PATH   = /usr/bin
#AVRDUDE_CONF     = /etc/avrdude.conf

AVRDUDE_ARD_PROGRAMMER = arduino
AVRDUDE_ARD_BAUDRATE   = 57600
#AVRDUDE_ARD_EXTRAOPTS  = -F

include /usr/share/arduino/Arduino.mk

I'm trying to compile the first example from /usr/share/doc/arduino-core/examples/1.Basics/Blink/
1st: I have to rename the sketch to Blink.pde from Blink.ino, then I get:

build-cli/Blink.cpp:1:22: fatal error: WProgram.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

So I go in /usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino and make a symbolinc link: ln -s Arduino.h WProgram.h
Then when I make I get:

/usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino/WProgram.h:212:26: fatal error: pins_arduino.h: No such file or directory

So I edit /usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino/WProgram.h:212 e comment the pin include.
I get: /usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino/wiring_analog.c:28:26: fatal error: pins_arduino.h: No such file or directory
So i comment th pin include in wiring_analog.c too.
Now I get:

/usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino/wiring_digital.c:29:26: fatal error: pins_arduino.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated

I comment out pins from wiring_digital.c:29

/usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino/wiring_pulse.c:26:26: fatal error: pins_arduino.h: No such file or directory

I comment out pins from wiring_pulse.c:26

And I'm stuck. Any suggestion?

So I go in /usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino and make a symbolinc link:

As opposed to fixing the library properly? Why?

So I edit /usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino/WProgram.h:212 e comment the pin include.

Which leads to all the other problems. I would have thought that it would have been obvious that this was not the right thing to do.

I'm afraid it's not that obvious to me, I see the compile failing in /usr/share/arduino/Arduino.mk:405 which just is "include $(DEP_FILE)" wich is still obscure to me.

I can tell the compile dies at the very beginning with:

make TARGET=Blink
/usr/share/arduino/Arduino.mk:405: build-cli/depends.mk: No such file or directory
echo \#include \"WProgram.h\" > build-cli/Blink.cpp
cat  Blink.pde >> build-cli/Blink.cpp
/usr/bin/avr-g++ -MM -mmcu=atmega328 -DF_CPU=16000000L -I. -I/usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino  -g -Os -w -Wall -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -fno-exceptions build-cli/Blink.cpp -MF build-cli/Blink.d -MT build-cli/Blink.o
build-cli/Blink.cpp:1:22: fatal error: WProgram.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

Should I make a proper build-cli/depends.mk or should I investigate in /usr/share/arduino/Arduino.mk ?
BTW: is at least my Makefile reasonable?

Thanks.

Today I was able to copile and upload, with package arduino-core 1:1.0+dfsg-4 .
I still had to create a symbolic link to Arduino.h
(or you can change /usr/share/arduino/Arduino.mk:220 to
[

# PDEHEADER     = \\\#include \"WProgram.h\"
PDEHEADER     = \\\#include \"Arduino.h\"

Then I had to change the include for pins_arduino.h (wich comes in different files) to #include "/usr/share/arduino//hardware/arduino/variants/standard/pins_arduino.h" . Can anyone suggest a more elegant way?

Now I'm having some problems with upload, with my make file:

ARDUINO_DIR = /usr/share/arduino

#TARGET       = Blink // Name of Sketch
#ARDUINO_LIBS = LiquidCrystal

BOARD_TAG    = uno // This is working on a Arduino uno r.2
MCU          = atmega328
F_CPU        = 16000000L
ARDUINO_PORT = /dev/ttyACM0

VARIANTS = $(INSTALL_DIR)/hardware/arduino/variants/standard

#AVR_TOOLS_PATH   = /usr/bin
#AVRDUDE_CONF     = /etc/avrdude.conf

AVRDUDE_ARD_PROGRAMMER = arduino
AVRDUDE_ARD_BAUDRATE   = 115200
#AVRDUDE_ARD_EXTRAOPTS  = -F

include /usr/share/arduino/Arduino.mk

I'm able to compile, but in order to upload I have to change

MCU          = atmega328P

(There's a 'P' of difference.)
