Adafruit VL6180X library problems

Hi
I have purchased the above and wired it up and downloaded the library. (I have done this before...and am reasonably OK) I am certainly a newbie but this is quite simple.
I renamed the library and removed 'master' from it.
The VL6180X shows up under examples. I try the test sketch and when I verify I get in red:

The problem must be obvious but a bit too obvious for me. Can anyone help?

HI all

reforge this topic dies can someone at least tell me if they think the issue is with my setup, or the adafruit library? Any ideas great fully received!

They are only warnings. Perhaps ask Adafruit what's going on.
The example sketch compiles OK.
