Build Failure

    I am trying to build a branch of MediaImport, based 0n Kodi 20.02a, but it fails with the following error.


    FAILURE: scripts/build JsonSchemaBuilder:host has failed!


    If I build the LibreELEC master it succeeds but MediaImport fails.


    Branch - https://github.com/Montellese/…media_import_20.0a2-Nexus

    Changes to the Kodi package.mk file

    1. PKG_VERSION="3e7c9fe8ea2c67c7b174781968fb71c3e23ffc34"
    2. PKG_SHA256=""
    3. PKG_URL="https://github.com/Montellese/xbmc/archive/${PKG_VERSION}.tar.gz"

    I was able to build previous version using the same approach. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Tried make clean and make distclean

    Unfortunately, the build still fails.


    I am running again so that I can get the logs.

    one patch does not apply


    Code
        APPLY PATCH (common - drmprime-filter)      packages/mediacenter/kodi/patches/drmprime-filter/0001-WIP-DVDVideoCodecDRMPRIME-add-support-for-filters.patch
patching file xbmc/cores/VideoPlayer/DVDCodecs/Video/DVDVideoCodecDRMPRIME.cpp
Hunk #2 FAILED at 561.

    so just remove packages/mediacenter/kodi/patches/drmprime-filter/0001-WIP-DVDVideoCodecDRMPRIME-add-support-for-filters.patch and it should build


    you can try to manually adjust the patch that it fits to the different xmbc base but I do not think this is easily done

    Thanks for the pointer and for including that the log showed the error. I had to remove a few more patches for the build to progress.

    The build has failed at a later stage, however, the indicates that it is in one of the MediaImport modules so I have informed the developer.

    Thanks for your help

    From the developer,
    The failure is caused
    "..part of the functionality provided by libfmt to format custom C++ types in log messages. It seems to work fine on all other platforms. Can you figure out which version of libfmt / fmt LibreELEC is using?"

    CvH,

    Seems the the failure is related to fmt. Could you say what version is used by LibreELEC? Was there a change? It was compiling earlier in the year?

    CvH and heitbaum,

    Thanks for your help with this. The problem was the version of fmt. The necessary changes have been made, so the code is complaint with 9.0.0, and I was able to build RPi4, Generic-Legacy and Generic successfully.

    I really appreciate your taking the take to help solve this.
