This device isn't available, how I can fix it?

Try https://github.com/iafilatov/libfprint#unrecognized-devices

Also, it's better to use the official repo https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libfprint/libfprint

I installed the enalmoc2 version in Fedora 37 (I have 04f3:0c00 fingerprint reader). I did:

git clone -b elanmoc2 https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/Depau/libfprint/
cd libfprint/
sudo dnf intall glib2-devel libgusb-devel gobject-introspection-devel pixman-devel nss-devel libgudev-devel gtk-doc
meson setup builddir && cd builddir
sudo ninja install
fprintd-enroll

but I get: Impossible to enroll: GDBus.Error:net.reactivated.Fprint.Error.NoSuchDevice: No devices available

what am I doing wrong?

I FIXED! I did what this comment says: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libfprint/libfprint/-/merge_requests/330#note_1718869 and then rebuilded and reinstalled as usual and restarted the service with sudo systemctl restart fprintd.service and now it works!

@All3xJ how did you get it to work? Did you clone the repo from the PR that had the patch and built manually? I'm not that well versed in this these things and i just want my fingerprint reader (04f3:0c00) to work haha
