what am i missing or doing wrong? cross-compiling LE8

Animejin · June 4, 2017 at 7:41 PM

When i saw how the LE8 community build had BOTH kodi and retroarch. i wanted to test it on my cubox-i 4x4.

strangely enough, there was no imx6 build for it. so, i look up how make it. so i have the directory, ran the make image command with the correct parameters.

......until i get errors. i have a ~30MB log file documenting the whole process.

i'm running Ubuntu 16.04 headless on a 500GB duo-core tower with 4GB ram. Am i running out of RAM here?

the last time i tried this project was back in august. i have already tried the "Generic" build of LE8 on my laptop, and i still want it on my cubox.

so, as the title says..."what am i missing or doing wrong?"

I will rebuild over night and see if works at least for me.

Build completed - git aa967f4. No errors.

Try removing cmake package and build again:

Code

PROJECT=imx6 ARCH=arm ./scripts/clean cmake
PROJECT=imx6 ARCH=arm make image

.........now i get the errors on cmake-3.7.2 and libcurl

No idea what this could be. I think it is cmake package problem because it should go to 100%. Seems you will have to figure out that yourself

hmmm.....

"qmake: could not exec '/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmake': No such file or directory"

is qmake necessary? this shows up every time...

even stranger is when i use "whereis qmake", it says "qmake: /usr/bin/qmake" not '/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmake'

are these files one and the same?

I get this too if type qmake on console. But still can make image.

ok, this probably foolish of me to ask and most likely to be denied...

any chance you can upload your build? my past experiences tend to show me as a more of a tester than builder....

i might have to give up on this project anyway, the build you just uploaded, its doing the black screen glitch on my cubox-i 4x4.

thanks for your time and effort, but it looks like i have the short end of the straw for this aspect of "computers"....
