system `androideabi' not recognized issue.

[jben@sohu.com]

Hello, I met two issues following the compile procedure documented by wiki http://wiki.videolan.org/AndroidCompile .

One issue is the patch can't be applied. other issue is that configure check host failure. the failure is androideabi

Does any one know these two issues?

[windriver@wrlinux3 android]$ sh compile.sh
If you plan to use a device without NEON (e.g. the emulator), you need a build without NEON:
$ export NO_NEON=1
Make sure it is set throughout the entire process.

The script will attempt to automatically detect if you have NDK v7, but you can override this.
If you do not have NDK v7 or later:
export NO_NDK_V7=1
or if you are sure you have NDK v7:
export NO_NDK_V7=0

I have the same trouble. Have you solved this problem?

[some_birdie]

I've found the solution: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4594 ... ndroideabi
I've updated the config.sub and config.guess scripts (for me they were in /usr/share/misc directory) to the latest versions, and so the problem has been solved.
