Cannot enable maschine mikro2 in 8.10

Installation & Configuration Linux
#1

I can’t seem to get ardour 8.10 compiled with maschine support to actually recognize my maschine mikro 2 and allow me to enable it as a control surface in the preferences. I’ve confirmed udev is properly setting the group and permissions a la this thread but still no luck. I was able to interface with it using this so I don’t think it’s a hardware issue.

#2

also failing to compile git-master with ./waf configure --maschine (it works without the --maschine flag though):
