For those who want to learn this is a great guide!

If I had to guess, there will probably be a few hundred if not thousand more articles before a public PS4 jailbreak surfaces... depending on if it takes only months or years to arrive.

some samples compile ... some dont ?

Spoiler

sudo apt-get install git
sudo apt install llvm
sudo apt install binutils
mkdir /opt
git clone https://github.com/CTurt/PS4-***.git
echo 'set environment accordingly'
export PS4SDK=/opt/PS4-***

or add the export to the bottom of .bashrc
success after build libusb libps4 and samples
so here they are

I'm just about to do the setup after the tutorial, but I can not get any further at one point. When entering the command: sudo -H getit /etc/environment

I receive the message: sudo: getit: command not found
Any solutions? Thanks!

OK it seems to be a typing mistake in the tut, "getit" instead "gedit"
