Getting Started Guilde Appendix - A Results in Failed Build of openocd (FTBS) #481
Description
This request to open an issue here was made by the Pi engineer responding to the [SOLVED] openocd FTBFS on MSys64 - error: jimtcl is required but not found thread. The instructions in Appendix - A of the Getting Started Guide fail to include the needed git submodule update --init --recursive to use the internal jimctl (apparently upstream prefers you use upstream jimctl, but that isn't addressed either in the Getting Started Guide). Further, to build with the openocd code downloaded from the Pi repository, you need to pass --enable-internal-jimtcl to ./configure.
The specifics are exhaustively detailed in the forum thread. The Pi Engineer and Moderator jdb requested that this issue be opened (see last post in thread from two days ago). The instructions in the Getting Started Guide, directly lead people into a failed openocd build as described in the thread.
This is a separate and distinct issue from Update needed to "Raspberry Pi Debug Probe" for PICO 2.
