Building B2G OS for Flamingo (Xperia E3)

[anon1576192]

I followed the wiki guide https://wiki.mozilla.org/B2G/Transition_Project#Building_the_Transition_Branches. My device is a Flamingo with latest fxp build (FirefoxOS 2.6). All seems ok till I ./build.sh, which produces this:

iPino:B2G Enrico$ ./build.sh

Build with |./build.sh -j1| for better messages
If all else fails, use |rm -rf objdir-gecko| to clobber gecko and |rm -rf out| to clobber everything else.

The only step in the guide I may have misinterpreted is

$ vim .repo/manifests/base.xml
<project name="gaia" path="gaia" remote="mozillaorg" revision="kanikani" />

which doesn’t tell me where that line has to go and whether the previous content of the file has to be erased. (Just in case it may be relevant, I used Atom instead ov Vim)

Any idea? Any help is most welcome!

This is breakage of building on OSX. I cannot help more regarding the first error, except I know you need to use a bootstrap script which is somewhere

You might also need some patches from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1194655

[lissyx]

Also, please make sure you are using the proper device name. Check in |./config.sh|, there is no “flamingo”, but rather “flamingo-l”.

[anon1576192]

Thanks @lissyx, you are right: I was building on OS X. The bug looks bad enough, I guess there’s little I can do but wait for it to be fixed…

I correctly used flamingo-l and the config.sh part completed successfully, up to that point everything looks alright.

[albertopq (Alberto Pastor)]

I managed to build on OSX. What’s the exact issue you are having?

[anon1576192]

The issue is broadly described in my first post, but let me know if you’d like any other detail.

[albertopq (Alberto Pastor)]

Sorry I misread it and thought that the error was thrown on ./config.sh.

Can you check what’s in .config? Can you try combinations (don’t remember the right one) for DEVICE_NAME and PRODUCT_NAME with flamingo and flamingo-l?

DEVICE_NAME=flamingo-l
PRODUCT_NAME=flamingo

[anon1576192]

Tried but without luck yet. This is what I keep getting:

Enricos-MBP:B2G Enrico$ cat .config
MAKE_FLAGS=-j6
GECKO_OBJDIR=/Users/Enrico/projects/B2G/objdir-gecko
DEVICE_NAME=flamingo-l

[lissyx]

can you, just to be sure, try another device?

./config.sh aries-l && ./build.sh

If so, maybe something broke for Flamingo?

[anon1576192]

I may do that but only if I have no other choice… It would take hours!

[lissyx]

No, it won’t take hours. If you see that it starts building properly, you can stop it.

[lissyx]

Just to make it clear, OSX builds are more likely to be a pain to support :). If you can work from a Linux VM it would be much easier.

[anon1576192]

I have a (old) Ubuntu machine too, I’ll give it a try later…

[lapineige]

A VM or a live system (it could also help to try on another computer, more powerful, with the same environment and setup).

Works for me:

[anon1576192]

Tried with aries-l but I get the same result. Double checking all the prerequisites didn’t help as well.

[lissyx]

It is something on your side. Make sure you have properly synced everything.

[anon1576192]

Yes I guess so… I’m afraid the only thing to do is to delete the B2G folder and start everything anew…

[fabrice]

On your first error:

Did you install this SDK?

[anon1576192]

I actually followed instrucions at https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox_OS/Firefox_OS_build_prerequisites#Xcode_7.2 only, thinking that Xcode 5.1.1 was not necessary… If that is the issue, I’ll have to switch to Linux, my hard-drive can’t afford two Xcode.
