Errors building libMobileVLCKit.a

[Zajo]

Following the instructions at https://wiki.videolan.org/VLCKit/#Build ... rk_for_iOS, it runs for a while and then I get [info] building universal static libs for OS style iPhone ./buildMobileVLCKit.sh: line 44: pushd: MobileVLCKit/ImportedSources/vlc/install-ios-iPhoneOS: No such file or directory

Any idea what I might be doing wrong?

Same error for me.
I can't build VLC for iOS like last 2 days, different branches and commits, including latest from today

Felix, I'd really appreciate if you can give some advise how to build this library

Again, this log does not really help. You always need to give a full and complete debug log output, not only the last few pieces...

Oh yeah, I just wanna rebuild and send you like 64K of strings from the log, but oh mine God, it builds!
I don't know how or why it ended with the same error last 3 days

But today it works.

So my advise for everyone suffering may be it just not your day to build VLC library, try one more time in day or two.. or three.
Or ping me and I'll share library.

I got the same error and I build many times. It still got the same error.
But I found the directory "install-iso-iphoneos" not exist, it only can find directory "install-iso-iphone".
./buildMobileVLCKit.sh: line 44: pushd: MobileVLCKit/ImportedSources/vlc/install-ios-iPhoneOS: No such file or directory

Could you share the library?

Try to update macOS to Siera, then Homebrew and Xcode command line tools. This steps helped me with the same problem.
