Udev missing

Open ebusch8 opened this issue 11 months ago • 0 comments

I was following the guide in the readme at packages/sdk-cli/README.md and I saw this:

Usage on Linux

If you're using these tools on Linux, there's a couple extra steps you may need to take. These could vary a little dependent on what distro you use. The steps below are for Ubuntu and derivatives but you can adapt for your distro:

  • Install libsecret-1-dev: sudo apt-get install libsecret-1-dev
  • Add a udev rule to give your user access to connected Fitbit devices, by creating a file at /etc/udev/rules.d/99-fitbit-sdk.rules with the following content: SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="2687", ATTRS{idProduct}=="fd13", GROUP="plugdev", TAG+="uaccess"
  • Once you've added the rule, unplug any Fitbit devices and plug them in again for the changes to apply

... and I can't find the directory udev. I'm in /etc/ , but udev isn't there. When I run ls, I find
