Unable to fully sync the tree

Using /e/OS Build /e/OS
1

Hi all,

I’m trying to build /e/ (v0.14.2-q) for my Oneplus Nord (avicii), I have set a HP Z800 Workstation with Ubuntu 18.04LTS and launch the builde.sh script I’ve just clone. (I pass the 1st try with Ubuntu 20.04 lts and docker because of the same result)

The point is I can’t get all repo synced, I’m getting this kind of errors:

>> [Sun Feb 21 19:44:21 CET 2021] (Re)initializing branch repository

repo has been initialized in /srv/src/Q

The simplest way to resolve this is (at least i did it so because I’m trying to build for Realme X2):

  1. make a new folder
  2. cd to it
  3. repo init eelo
  4. cd to .repo/manifests/
  5. enter with a editing tool the default.xml (you can use nano it would look like this “nano default.xml”)
  6. edit the revision for the “LineageOS/android_external_chromium-webview” to the latest commit from the commit history from this link:
    https://github.com/LineageOS/android_external_chromium-webview/commits/master
    For the time of writing (2021.02.23 17:19 UTC+1) it’s the commit “c7ee4db409335ac6227e6507869c0a1739ab281a”
  7. repo sync
    after this steps it should work - at least for me it did

Thanks for your very helpful advice ! :slight_smile:
I will investigate if it’s possible to include it into Docker …

@gchevalier : could you please post back the source from your builde.sh clone ?

Source is :
<project name="LineageOS/android_external_chromium-webview" path="external/chromium-webview" revision="c780a2e17197f70b4cde3aaac1021a78f48a516f" upstream="master" dest-branch="master" groups="pdk" clone-depth="1"/>

I update it and resync the repo right now!

if it already tried to sync the repo then you have to delete the chromium-webview from the rom directory, from the .repo/projects (can’t check the exact location now - building /e/) and from .repo/project-objects/ (the same situation as before) and it should repo sync correctly.

Indeed it works after removing the existing /srv/src/Q/external/chromium-webview

Checking out projects: 100% (759/759), done.
repo sync has finished successfully.

FYI, the tag v0.14.1-p also have this wrong reference to chrome webview.

However, I built with v1-p, and it worked.

Sorry, I meant the source for builde.sh script :wink:

I have found the script.sh reading this topic

the script is maintained here: https://github.com/picomatic/builde

Hello, do you know how to do this for the docker build method? I tried changing the HEAD file but that didn’t work

12

This was a silly question on my part it works the exact same on docker

13

If you have tips about that, could you please explain ?

14

The file you need to change is at /srv/e/src/Q/.repo/manifests and you change the same thing as explained in kjaneczek’s post

Thank you ! :slight_smile:
