I recently tried to Install DIGImend following this video in order to use keys of huion h950p. But When I tried

sudo make dkms_install

It gives me this error:

dkms add .

                 /usr/src/digimend-10

Have you tried installing the `flex` and `bison` packages?

Yes I tried. Then encounter same problem, [here](https://pastebin.com/e2bLQ1CN). @steeldriver. Even I tried to upgrade dkms `sudo apt-get install -y dkms` but encounter same issue.

I guess I installed from `.deb` few weeks ago then uninstall it. Because my stylus was not detect. After uninstall it, the problem was fixed. Then I tried this procedure, now I am here.

If the package is installed, but the bison program is not found then you may need to reinstall it (`sudo apt install --reinstall bison`)

When I try to install or reinstall bison/flex, getting `Setting up digimend-dkms (10) ... Removing old digimend-10 DKMS files... ` error. Why was that? @steeldriver. Seems nothing can be done until fixing `digimend-dkms`

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
