Version to build last Replicant version

Added by Fil Lupin about 1 month ago

Hi guys,
it's been a while.

I would like to build the last Replicant version, which is Replicant 6 from what I see on https://redmine.replicant.us/projects/replicant/wiki#Maintained-versions

I see Trisquel 9 & debian 9 are recommanded on https://redmine.replicant.us/projects/replicant/wiki/Replicant60BuildDependenciesInstallation

However, Debian 9 and Trisquel 9 are note anymore maintained.
What distribution is recommanded to build Replicant?

RegardS.

RE: Version to build last Replicant version - Added by Fil Lupin about 1 month ago

While trying to build on debian 9, I did not find build-dep and llvm-defaults packages

While following instructions in repo https://download.replicant.us/build-tools/repo/07-02-2022/README.txt, downloading the GPG key fails with `gpg: keyserver receive failure: Server indicated a failure`
The key found in https://redmine.replicant.us/projects/replicant/wiki/Images is not he same
The signature should be the one of "Denis 'GNUtoo' Carliki <>"

Then,

RE: Version to build last Replicant version - Added by Fil Lupin 26 days ago

Following Josh's suggestion, I took inspiration from https://github.com/publicsite/ReplicantBuilds/tree/messy-update-1 procedure.

In the following order, since I already installed a debian9, I read and ran when pertinent:
  • getDebian9.sh
  • do-6.0.sh
  • getSource-6.0.sh (it took 36h to run `repo sync` and it is stucked since 40 hours at 99%)
    `repo sync` ended with the following messages:
    Checking out projects:  99% (503/504) LineageOS-mirror/android_vendor_qcom_opensUpdating files: 100% (281/281), done.:  60% (170/281)
Checking out projects: 100% (504/504), done.

error: Unable to fully sync the tree.
error: Downloading network changes failed.
error: Checking out local projects failed.
Try re-running with "-j1 --fail-fast" to exit at the first error.

    Access seems to be time-dependant, and after retrying several times, it succeeds after 3 days.
gpg --keyserver hkp://pgp.rediris.es --recv-key 37D2C98789D8311948394E3E41E7044E1DBA2E89

failed, I replace the keyserver by `keyserver.ubuntu.com`

gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-key 37D2C98789D8311948394E3E41E7044E1DBA2E89

which worked.

cd replicant-6.0/device/samsung/i9305

is probably an error since line 34 put us into replicant-6.0 already, 
cd device/samsung/i9300/

works.

I then ran ./vendor/replicant/build-toolchain 2>&1 | tee "${thepwd}/0.txt" which failed because makeinfo miss, so I installed texi2html, without more success:

info-recursive is not present into ReplicantBuilds-messy-update/replicant-6.0/toolchain/gcc/arm/arm-linux-androideabi/build/binutils/bfd/Makefile

In the former error output, the suggested packages changed from texi2html to texinfo. Thanks to Josh which pointed me to this point and help me solve it.

So I launched again 

make clean
./vendor/replicant/build-toolchain 2>&1 | tee "${thepwd}/0.txt"

It works then!

Then 

make -j$parallel_tasks recoveryimage 2>&1 | tee "${thepwd}/1.txt"

failed with following error:

RE: Version to build last Replicant version - Added by Fil Lupin 21 days ago

Josh points out that ${REPLICANTDIT}/kernel/samsung/smdk4412-common perhaps do not exists.*
Indeed, ${REPLICANTDIT}/kernel/samsung/ only contains 2 directories: espresso10/ and tuna/

So I started again the process from the beginning:
  • getDebian9.sh was already followed
  • do-6.0.sh also
  • getSource-6.0.sh in which I skipped "#i9305 patches" but I noticed "#generic (scintill) replicant 6.0 patches {" I formerly did not execute, so I ran them this time
  • build-6.0.sh : 
    make clean
./vendor/replicant/build-toolchain 2>&1 | tee "${thepwd}/0.txt"

    failed with a new error:
    make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/fil/ReplicantBuilds-messy-update/replicant-6.0/toolchain/gcc/arm/arm-linux-androideabi/build/gcc'

A grep on `unstage` in `replicant-6.0` gave me the information about how is defined this variable:

find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 grep -e "unstage[[:space:]]*=" /dev/null

gave me this output

I still need to understand why it fails...

RE: Version to build last Replicant version - Added by Fil Lupin 15 days ago

Rebooting and following again instructions, I noticed that line 11 of do-6.0.sh still install packages so I probably did not ran it before.

I now ran again 

./vendor/replicant/build-toolchain 2>&1 | tee "${thepwd}/0.txt"

Here is the complete output I got, it fails:

The issue was the certificates as described in https://github.com/publicsite/ReplicantBuilds/blob/049b18100a38a46e82b98f69e8d0b7eee42a5fdb/getDebian9.sh#L32 so I copied them from a debian 13 to the debian 9.
