Add compile instructions

[NicoHood]

I am trying to compile this on arm. It would be nice to add a litle note how to download and compile it. what dependencies are required? Also I currently got problems with the submodule:

$ git submodule update --init --recursive
Cloning into 'libserialport'...
The authenticity of host 'github.com (192.30.252.130)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is 16:27:ac:a5:76:28:2d:36:63:1b:56:4d:eb:df:a6:48.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added 'github.com,192.30.252.130' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

It would be nice if you can add ARM builds natively from arduino too.

On x64 I had to install sudo apt-get install libc6-dev-i386 to get rid of some warnings. However the 32bit configure still failed.

Hi Nico, I merged some of your commits and a added proper README
Feel free to test it in your Ubuntu environment!
In the meanwhile, I've uploaded version 1.0.7 with ARM binary included 😄

Thx for those fixes! I will try it. If it does not work, I will comment again.

Where did you upload it? You should tag the versions on github and also provide the binaries as well. Or link to the arduino.cc download page. I am a bit confused because the latest git only has 1.0.5, not 1.0.7.

Did you also had a look into the arduino-builder arm package? Only a small folder structure change is required to make the package working. It would be extremely nice if you can fix this as well.

I still got the configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables error. I installed all suggested packages on x64.

Very strange problem... I fired up an Ubuntu minimal VM to understand all the requirement and it works great. I believe it's a problem related with multilibs but, not being an Ubuntu user, I can't help more than that, sorry.
