Build failures against kodi 18 about peripheral.steamcontroller HOT 4 CLOSED

Does #6 fix your build failure?

from peripheral.steamcontroller.

Fixes the compile, but not the link:

I'm 100% certain I've run into this same build error before in the past few days, but I've been messing with lots of stuff. I believe libusb gets built by the kodi addon system, but I don't know how to force it to use fPIC for the build.

I believe the linker issue being a separate matter, we can close this issue.

OK. Best to skip this add-on for now, as it has an infinite loop bug. I plan to finish this and several other peripheral add-ons once the new Player Manager is released.
