Can't compile libtool

hdkiller · September 10, 2017 at 1:48 AM

Hello!

I am new to libreelec and I have some issue compiling it from source. It's stuck on libtool and i can't figoure out why.. I would like to compile libreelec for myself since I want to test some stuff, like new moonlight-embendded, etc

Thank you!

Try this automake patch: libreelec libtool fix - Pastebin.com

You need to rebuild automake:host first and then libtool:host should build too. Maybe.

It's working

PROJECT=RPi DEVICE=RPi2 ./scripts/clean automake

PROJECT=RPi DEVICE=RPi2 ./scripts/clean libtool

PROJECT=RPi DEVICE=RPi2 ./scripts/build automake:host

PROJECT=RPi DEVICE=RPi2 ./scripts/build libtool:host

but it's failed, so i applied the patch again and run

PROJECT=RPi DEVICE=RPi2 ./scripts/build libtool:host

again and now it's compiling.

I don't understand the root cause of this problem, but well.. it's compiling so thanks!

idk if you just forgot it at copy/paste but ARCH is missing

PROJECT=RPi DEVICE=RPi2 ARCH=arm ./scripts/clean automake

btw you can do also

PROJECT=RPi DEVICE=RPi2 ARCH=arm ./scripts/clean automake

PROJECT=RPi DEVICE=RPi2 ARCH=arm ./scripts/build automake

PROJECT=RPi DEVICE=RPi2 ARCH=arm ./scripts/create_addon moonlight

PROJECT=RPi DEVICE=RPi2 ARCH=arm make image

hdkiller · September 10, 2017 at 6:15 PM

yes, well i ran into a bunch of other problems trying to build under debian testing, so i will try again under ubuntu 16

**vpeter** · September 10, 2017 at 6:20 PM

You can also build in Ubuntu docker.
