Fab4 Squeezeos Building

From SqueezeboxWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Building Squeezeos for Fab4 is just like building for Squeezebox Controller. The main instructions are here: http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/SqueezeOS_Build_Instructions.

Instead of
https://svn.slimdevices.com/repos/jive/<squeezeosversion>/trunk/squeezeos/poky
, the poky starter package is at
https://svn.slimdevices.com/repos/jive/7.4/private-branches/fab4/squeezeos/poky

Here's how to start the Fab4 Poky Build:

export MACHINE=fab4
sh parabuild/clean.sh
sh parabuild/build.sh

Harmless Warnings

The build process can spit out some warnings/errors. Unless you know otherwise, you tend to assume these are important, when in fact they are not. So if you seen warnings like:

NOTE: libdbd-sqlite-perl-native has depends libdbi-perl which doesn't end in -native?
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

you can safely ignore them.

Troubleshooting

If you get the following error for squeezeplay-fab4 (ERROR: This autoconf log indicates errors, it looked at host includes), a workaround is to move /usr/bin/sdl-config to /usr/bin/sdl-config-old
