@mighty sure, I'll just move this discussion at github. [https://github.com/Halium/projectmanagement/issues/238]

@mighty the line

device/sample/frameworks/PlatformLibrary/Android.mk:37: build/core/java_library.mk: No such file or directory

I guess when it tries to build the device/sample, it looks for that file but since it doesn't exist for me it just errors out and stop the building so I just deleted it (temporarily) to see if it fix it and it did build without errors

ok now mka mkbootimg completed successfully as well as export USE_HOST_LEX=yes mka halium-boot but without the device/sample but now when executing mka systemimage I got this

@yxles said in Need help building Ubuntu Touch for Galaxy Tab 2:

@mighty hey its you, thx for helping me with this but there's another problem. So I downloaded the master branch of gpg here https://github.com/ubports/android_external_gpg and paste it on the external folder. Now when I execute mka mkbootimg I got this error

build/core/base_rules.mk:183: *** external/gpg: MODULE.TARGET.STATIC_LIBRARIES.libdl already defined by bionic/libdl.
make: *** [build/core/ninja.mk:167: /home/yxles/halium/out/build-aosp_espresso3g.ninja] Error 1
make: Leaving directory '/home/yxles/halium'

So I thought maybe it conflicted with bionic/libdl so I removed that and execute the command again and now I got this

build/core/binary.mk:1253: external/gpg/g10/Android.mk: static_gpg: Unused source files: filter.h
build/core/binary.mk:1253: external/gpg/util/Android.mk: libgpgutil: Unused source files: assuan-defs.h

make: *** [build/core/ninja.mk:167: /home/yxles/halium/out/build-aosp_espresso3g.ninja] Error 1
make: Leaving directory '/home/yxles/halium'

How do I fix this?

@Mighty removing device/sample fix it but I saw on the github that its needed

Looking for mention of gpg on default.xml at https://github.com/Halium/android/blob/halium-7.1/default.xml for Halium 7.1 shows up nothing, is that normal?

@applee I don't have it, I think there are some files missing even though repo sync completely

@tchan @tchan I dont think specs is the problem here since Galaxy Tab 2 was supported by Canonical when they're still the one who manage Ubuntu Touch and someone actually already ported UT for this device that boots and works with UI

Hi! I'm having trouble when executing mka mkbootimg, it shows up this error

I've been following this guide here: https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/porting/build_and_boot/H7_setup_sources.html

I've been trying to make one for Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 but it always failed at envsetup.sh. So if allowed, can someone send an example of how the xml should look like?

holy crap sorry for reviving this but are you the same guy here
