Hi
I’m trying to cross-compile an aarch64-linux-android v21.0-Omega kodi from a x86_64 Linux.
I would like to automatize it so I’m trying to do that from a docker container but I can’t manage to make it work.
Any help debugging that would be very much appreciated.
I don’t really understand what is wrong, I think I followed all the instructions in https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master…Android.md
Here is my command :
command:docker build --tag 'kodi' . && docker run -it --rm 'kodi' | tee debug.txt
Here is my docker file:
dockerfile:FROM debian:12
ENV WORK_DIR /app
WORKDIR $WORK_DIR
ENV DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
RUN apt update && apt -y upgrade

I added the result of two executions here : https://mega.nz/folder/SpQg3QxD#OdvMmHTFy9rq7YOqHIi0xw
The first one is the execution of the script as it is and the error message is :
error 1:src/libavformat/matroskadec.c:71:10: fatal error: 'bzlib.h' file not found
I found that it could be due to the fact that the libbz2-dev package is not installed but as you can see in the Dockerfile, it is.
The second one is with the code that search Dependencies built successfully instead of calling
make CFLAGS=”-Wno-int-conversion” -j$(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN)
The error message is :
