Hi,

I am new to Kodi. I am trying to learn things. So, I just tried to compile the Kodi Application for Android.
I am following the instructions given on XBMC docs .

Below are the details of my configuation:
Host System: Ubuntu 14.04

Android SDK Dir: $HOME/Downloads/android-sdk-linux
Android NDK Dir: $HOME/Downloads/android-ndk-r10d
Toolchain Dir: $HOME/Downloads/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8-vanilla/android-17

Android Build Tool version 21.1.2 is installed (./android update sdk -u -t build-tools-21.1.2)

Below command I used for making toolchain:
./make-standalone-toolchain.sh --ndk-dir=../../ --install-dir=$HOME/Downloads/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8-vanilla/android-17/android-17 --platform=android-17 --toolchain=arm-linux-androideabi-4.8 --system=linux-x86_64 --arch=arm

Below commands I used for building dependencies:
cd $HOME/Downloads/kodi-android/tools/depends
./bootstrap
./configure --with-tarballs=$HOME/Downloads/xbmc-tarballs --host=arm-linux-androideabi --with-sdk-path=$HOME/Downloads/android-sdk-linux --with-ndk=$HOME/Downloads/android-ndk-r10d --with-toolchain=$HOME/Downloads/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8-vanilla/android-17 --prefix=$HOME/Downloads/xbmc-depends

Now I am getting Error:
Unknown toolchain /home/kunal/Downloads/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8-vanilla/android-17

If you think configure made a mistake, make sure you are using the latest
version from Git. If the latest version fails, report the problem to the
[email protected] mailing list or IRC #ffmpeg on irc.freenode.net.
Include the log file "config.log" produced by configure as this will help
solve the problem.
make: *** [arm-linux-androideabi-android-14] Error 1
make: Leaving directory `/home/kunal/Downloads/kodi-android/tools/depends/target/ffmpeg'

Below is what I found in config.log:
configure:5617: WARNING: "No localeconv support in toolchain. Using replacement."
configure:5622: checking for main in -lcrystax
configure:5641: /home/kunal/Downloads/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8-vanilla/android-17/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gcc -o conftest conftest.c -lcrystax >&5
/home/kunal/Downloads/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8-vanilla/android-17/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-linux-androideabi/4.8/../../../../arm-linux-androideabi/bin/ld: error: cannot find -lcrystax
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Request you to help me ASAP. I have already wasted 4 days for such issues.
I tried to check if there is any option to attach config.log, but I could not find any.

Thanks in advance.

--install-dir=$HOME/Downloads/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8-vanilla/android-17/android-17 <- typo while creating the toolchain - double android-17 - either adapt your configure line or redo the toolchain ...

also - are you really building from our master branch or something older? (just a bit confused by the -lcrystax error - we don't use crystax anymore since 2 years or so).

[kunal.watkar]

Thanks for your reply.

Here is the link for Config.log

[kunal.watkar]

And, While creating a toolchain I used the directory "$HOME/Downloads/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8-vanilla/android-17/android-17" , but then I moved the date to "$HOME/Downloads/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8-vanilla/android-17/" which is pointed in configure.

[kunal.watkar]

also - are you really building from our master branch or something older? (just a bit confused by the -lcrystax error - we don't use crystax anymore since 2 years or so).

I am building from master branch, as instructed in README document.

I tried to build the dependency for failed target again.

Awaiting your suggestions to resolve the problem.
Thanks.

[kunal.watkar]

Can anyone please help me ?

[Memphiz]

add --with-sdk=android-17 to the configure line

[Memphiz]

and a bit more patience would be good - we are an international forum with alot of people in a lot of different timezones...

[kunal.watkar]

Thank you, I will try that.

[kunal.watkar]

Do I need to clean the entire directory using distclean, then run a bootstrap and then build the dependency ?

I just changed the configuration with "--with-sdk=android-17" and ran "make -C target/ffmpeg". It gave me same error.

git clean -xfd and start from scratch with
