@archywelker I had the same error, and it might be because of the version of the libhidapi-dev package you have installed. You can check this by running dpkg --list | grep hid. In my case, I had version 0.11.2-1 installed using apt-get, but the latest one is 0.13.1. And hid_get_device_info is pretty new API and available since 0.13. So, just update the package to the latest version, and you should be good to go!

Personally, I'm a newbie with all this apt-get and cmake stuff, and I didn't succeed in installing the latest version of the libhidapi-dev package, anything newer than version 0.11.2-1. So, I decided to build libhidapi-dev from source. Here are the steps to do it:

1. First, download the source code from the hidapi repository. All the instructions on how to build a standalone package from the source code are available there.
2. Install the libudev-dev and libusb-1.0-0-dev packages as it is said in the instructions provided in the repository's BUILD.md.
3. Build and install the standalone package according to the instructions in the BUILD.cmake.md file.
4. Once hidapi is installed, you can build co2mon. To do so, adjust the CMake file in the repository to use the standalone package. Replace pkg_search_module(HIDAPI REQUIRED hidapi-libusb hidapi) with find_package(hidapi REQUIRED). Then replace target_link_libraries(co2mon ${HIDAPI_LIBRARIES}) with target_link_libraries(co2mon PRIVATE hidapi::hidapi).

Without doubt not the best way, but it worked for me :)

Solution by @Sencudra worked but i get an error

root@ubuntu:~/co2mon/build/co2mond# ./co2mond 
hid_open: error
Unable to open CO2 device
hid_open: error

Yet i have my sensor plugged in

Update: It works using sudo ./co2mond

Note that the dependency was introduced recently in #47 to auto-detect whether a decoding step is necessary.

You might find it easier to build from an older revision (git checkout f47ec3d7e72ad4b8bc163a515b6e66bd94a6b02e) and run co2mond -n if your device requires so.
