Ah. EON Steel. Make you have hidapi - otherwise the EON Steel won't work
on Mac. And of course our branch of libdivecomputer (but the build script
already gave you that).

I think you are building master right now (that's what build.sh does).
It would be good once you have that working to also test v4.5-branch so
that we can make sure that all that works well in 4.5.4
