Hi,

I have some issues compiling libvlc for x86.
I started running the following command as advised by the AndroidCompile page

Code: Select all

sh compile.sh

Then I wanted to make it as simple as possible and I ran the following commands

Code: Select all

git clone git://git.videolan.org/vlc-ports/android.git
cd android
git clone git://git.videolan.org/vlc.git vlc
sh compile-libvlc.sh -a x86 release

and the output is as is

Code: Select all

touch .taglib

When I try to rerun compile-libvlc.sh it starts again and stops on another lib (ffmpeg)

Code: Select all

[.....]

AR	libavutil/libavutil.a
AR	libavcodec/libavcodec.a

And then it explodes on protobuf (I have no protobuf binary but I installed the compilers and c++ and c libraries for buffers protocol).
[I don't know where to get protobuf binaries, if some are really needed].

What can I do to solve these issues ?

Libraries have been installed in:
   .../android/vlc/contrib/i686-linux-android/lib

If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR'
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
   - add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable
     during execution
   - add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable
     during linking
   - use the `-Wl,-rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag
   - have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf'

See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.

I have finally chose to compile on a Archlinux vagrant box.
I must have the last up to date packages.
The compilation is very long here... 1 or 2 hours ! Is it really normal or is it the box layer ?

I have made some progress (at least that's the feeling I have).
It compils a lot of object files in contrib.
I let it run overnight, and this morning, it has sadly failed on a taglib object file and crashed.
(I have lost the output, but I am currently running another compilation to post it here)

I don't know what is wrong in my process.
Can anyone help me in diagnosing it ?
Thank you

PS: I have activated the multilib repository in pacman, but I cannot find the libs i386 asked in the wiki, and it seems that Google's protobuf does not complain.

It has gone beyond taglib this time.
But stopped at protobuf compilation.

I cannot diagnose if it's due to i386 libs. But I think it's likely to be the cause.
I am currently trying to install them. In the meanwhile, any hint will be highly appreciated if you notice anything
