The first thing it tells you is to install and run ykpersonalize:

• http://opensource.yubico.com/yubikey-personalization/releases.html

• • download, unpack

./configure

Fails with this error:

checking for libyubikey... no
configure: error: libyubikey v1.5+ not found, see http://code.google.com/p/yubico-c/

That url in the error mentions that there are fedora and debian packages, but they are too old. Need 1.5 not 1.3. So don't install them. Use the source.

• download the zip from github
• unpack
• make -f simple.mk check
