Wiringpi is deprecated.

You may be able to install the last release from the author's website which may or may not work on Bullseye.

There are a few alternative libraries.

See Controlling Raspberry Pi GPIO with c and Python

Command line tools

GPIOreadall is a python replacement for the wiringpi gpio readall utility.

raspi-gpio designed to help hack / debug GPIO (included in Raspberry Pi OS) which is used by GPIOreadall also allows command line access. I am unaware of any documentation but raspi-gpio help describes usage.

The new gpiochip libgpiod interface has a couple of command line tools. NOTE the Bullseye implementation has a few bugs.

Frankly if you REALLY want to use command line install pigpio (which should be installed in Raspberry Pi OS) and use pigs.

It was steel drivers comment, that solved it. sudo apt-get install libwiringpi-dev

There are some issues with libwiringpi-dev. You don't want to call wiringPiSetup(); you'll probably get

Oops: Unable to determine board revision from /proc/device-tree/system/linux,revision
or from /proc/cpuinfo
 -> No "Hardware" line
 ->  You'd best google the error to find out why.

which the reason is you're using a non arm based CPU,and the file its looking at isn't formatted the way it expects. fortunately I don't require any of that, I just wanted to use the simple serial port library.

I also had trouble with sending data via serialPuts(), but I don't need to do the handshaking.. I guess.

This is a little project that reads an Arduino uno with 2 potentiometers and a button, the goal is to use the pots to draw pictures on a screen, or in an image...

#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>       //read function
#include <string.h>
#include <wiringSerial.h> //simple serial port library

using namespace std;
//compiled with g++ -Wall -o readSerial   readSerial.cpp -lwiringPi

int main(int argc, char ** argv)
{
    const char *SensorPort = "/dev/ttyACM0"; //Serial Device Address
     
    int levelSensor = serialOpen(SensorPort, 9600);
    //serialPuts(levelSensor, "1"); //Send command to the serial device

    while (1){
        char buffer[100];
        ssize_t length = read(levelSensor, &buffer, sizeof(buffer));
        if (length == -1){
            cerr << "Error reading from serial port" << endl;
            break;
        }
        else if (length == 0){
            cerr << "No more data" << endl;
            break;
        }else{
            buffer[length] = '\0';
            cout << buffer; //Read serial data
        }
    }

    return 0;
}

the data being sent via the Arduino is via this code:

    /*EtchaSketch
     * 2 pots, X,Y, increment
     * 
     * add a button to delete this shtuff
     * This program communicates on the serial port, to a separate program that handles the drawing of received coordinates (pot values).  
    */
    
    int potX = A0;    
    int potY = A1;    
    int sensorValX = 0;  
    int sensorValY = 0;  
    int del = 1;       //a button on pin 1 for deleting drawn content 
    int delbutton = 0;
    void setup() {
        Serial.begin(9600);
        pinMode(del, INPUT);
    }

   void loop() {
      // read the value from the pots:
      if(digitalRead(del) == HIGH ){
          delbutton=1;
          }else{
              delbutton=0;
          }   
      sensorValX = analogRead(potX);
      sensorValY = analogRead(potY);
      Serial.print(sensorValX);
      Serial.print(",");
      Serial.print(sensorValY);
      Serial.print(",");
      Serial.println(delbutton);
      delay(1000);
      }

and here it is working good enough to go into the parsing / drawing program

Use master, not python3.
