I'm using Ubuntu 20.04 LTS on Window 10

I'm following this https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master...Android.md

Android SDK: commandlinetools-linux-7583922_latest

Android NDK: android-ndk-r21e-linux-x86_64

I use this configure:
./configure --with-tarballs=$HOME/android-tools/xbmc-tarballs --host=x86_64-linux-android --with-sdk-path=$HOME/android-tools/android-sdk-linux --with-ndk-path=$HOME/android-tools/android-ndk-r21e --prefix=$HOME/android-tools/xbmc-depends

I got an error at step build Kodi:

After run this step:

cd $HOME/kodi
make -C tools/depends/target/cmakebuildsys

Here is log after run:

https://paste.kodi.tv/vuwupuxozu

As you can see everything seem like work well:

-- Found Dav1d: /root/android-tools/xbmc-depends/x86_64-linux-android-21-debug/lib/libdav1d.a (found version "0.8.1")

But when I run :

cd cd $HOME/kodi/build
make -j$(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN)

It run few minutes and then logged this error:

ERROR: dav1d >= 0.5.0 not found using pkg-config

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 "ffbuild/config.log" produced by configure as this will help
solve the problem.

I don't known why it cannot find 'dav1d' although in first log it said 'Found dav1d'.
If missing path, where should I configure for it.

Any solutions for this issue? Please help me, I stucked here for a week. Thank you!

I can't edit the post so I note that I run: 'cd $HOME/kodi/build' not 'cd cd $HOME/kodi/build'
Thank you!

Hi, I have similar issues when following the android building guide: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master...Android.md
At Step 5, similar step as you descibed: make -j$(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN), I got several diffierent issues and I could somehow resolve them by running the command again and again...
However, I'm now stuck at a point where this trick doesn't work anymore, see snippet:

It would interesting to know if someone still is able to succeed with the building guide for Android (X86_64)

[Fuzzard]

ive got to ask, whats the reason for building android x86_64?

Its not built as part of our CI at all, and both x86 and x86_64 were even removed completely at one point, so its a totally unknown state.

Android x86 (32bit) is still built as part of our CI, and it builds nightly against both master and Matrix branches.

[Fuzzard]

had some spare time to kill. do the following patch to fix dependency builds for android x86_64.
run your configure command again. make sure to do meson-cross-file target to regenerate the cross-file.meson, build dav1d and then ffmpeg, should be good to go.

I cant say if kodi builds/runs, but dependencies complete

Thanks a lot, I will try it later today!
The reason for X86_64 is that the built-in android in my Polestar car (AAOS - Android 10) is using a x86_64 CPU.
However the AAOS Google Play Store only has around 40 apps, so I'm going to re-build the missing apps by myself
After Mozilla Firefox, which was easy to re-build using Android Studio, I'm now trying to build Kodi.

Do you know if this will also work in Android Studio for Linux?

Best regards,
Dary

Hi again,

Could you please give us a little guidance how to build dav1d?

I get still this error:

[Fuzzard]

Imo just start again. Apply the above patch, then build native/target as instructed in docs

[Dary]

Hi Fuzzard,

I have done a complete new git clone, so you patch should be already inside.
I tried to clean the errors, with:

make -C target/dav1d distclean
make -C target/ffmpeg distclean 

But the error remains:

log:

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 "ffbuild/config.log" produced by configure as this will help

solve the problem.

Any command I need to execute before running make again?

[Fuzzard]

Did you apply the patch after the clone? It's not in any repo/branch, you have to manually apply it.

[Dary]

I didn't apply the patch as I thought it's inside the new clone.
So how do I do this? Should I add the code from you to meson-cross-setup.sh?

Code:

Hi, I replaced your code in the configure.ac file, but the issue remains

See the patched configure.ac file here: https://paste.kodi.tv/dusowayinu

[Fuzzard]

Clear out your prefix path, run bootstrap/configure again.

Once again I'll mention, this is not a supported target anymore. You're on your own realistically with getting it to work.

Hi Fuzzard,

I think I'm pretty close to get Kodi build, could you please explain your steps a bit more detailed: ...make sure to do meson-cross-file target to regenerate the cross-file.meson, build dav1d and then ffmpeg, should be good to go.

• How do I make sure to do meson-cross-file target to regenerate the cross-file.meson? (please share the command)
  
• How do I manually build dav1d and then ffmpeg (please share the commands)
  

Thanks a lot and sorry for being an absolute beginner on this,
Dary
