I get the following compilation failure:

Below I have `allyesconfig` except 'BME680' configure as [M]
in case you wish to reproduce.

Compiles without any issues. 

Also, wondering when is 0x77 i2c address used, since I tested
this on 3 different boards with 0x76(when SDO is connected to GND)

And why do I connect SDO to ground everytime ?
It is because if SDO pin is left floating then I2C address will be
undefined as said in datasheet + I have observed this while testing.

Actallly, I don't understand what "VDIDO" is, as explained in the
datasheet.

Anyway, if the above compilation issue is not a problem, then
