error: COUNTER_NRF_RTC is assigned in a configuration file, but is not directly user-configurable

[snowuyl]

I added the following configuration to prj.conf file. But west build failed. Do you have suggestion to enable COUNTER_NRF_RTC?

CONFIG_RTC=y
CONFIG_COUNTER_NRF_RTC=y

west build -b nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp
...
error: COUNTER_NRF_RTC (defined at drivers/counter/Kconfig.nrfx:8) is assigned in a configuration
file, but is not directly user-configurable (has no prompt). It gets its value indirectly from other
symbols. See http://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/kconfig.html#CONFIG_COUNTER_NRF_RTC and/or look up
COUNTER_NRF_RTC in the menuconfig/guiconfig interface. The Application Development Primer, Setting
Configuration Values, and Kconfig - Tips and Best Practices sections of the manual might be helpful
too.

CONFIG_COUNTER_NRF_RTC cannot be directly assigned.

Set CONFIG_COUNTER=y in your prj.conf and also check if you have rtc enabled in your dts file (DT_HAS_NORDIC_NRF_RTC_ENABLED) needs to be true
