After this I cd into the unpacked sources

did

export ANDROID_HOME=/home/user/Android/Sdk

but

./autogen.sh

returned

./autogen.sh: 16: --copy: not found

Any ideas... ?

@RetroBunn , how did you manage to build it ? #1862 (comment)

[BobSquarePants]

In order to solve

./autogen.sh: 16: --copy: not found

You need to install libtool I've also installed libtool-bin without knowing if it's required or not..

Let see if I can finish that built...

[BobSquarePants]

Of course I get a new error

make apk-release

give

Makefile:2883: warning: ignoring prerequisites on suffix rule definition
cd android && ndk-build
/bin/bash: line 1: ndk-build: command not found
make: *** [Makefile:3081: jni] Error 127

I tried to modify my $PATH with fews export PATH=$PATH:/home/aUser/Android/Sdk/ndk:/home/aUser/Android/Sdk/ndk/27.0.11718014/ndk-build

But I still get the same error :/

[alex19EP]

use latest master. and just build with gradel no autotools required

[BobSquarePants]

Thanks @alex19EP ,

I've downloaded gradle v8.8

I've done

./configure --with-gradle=/home/someone/Desktop/gradle88

but I don't see (like mentioned here )

...
gradle (Android): gradle
...

in the output :/

I got

gradle (Android):

any ideas... ?

[BobSquarePants]

never mind I've put /home/someone/Desktop/gradle88 in $PATH and it's now displaying.
