错误：gyp_chromium返回非零退出状态1

Question

I'm trying to checkout the android version of chromium on CentOS 2.6.18
I'm following the official instructions provided in this link

unfortunately, when i run

gclient runhooks

I get the following error:

Error: Command /usr/local/bin/python src/build/gyp_chromium returned non-zero exit status 1 in /root

Here is the full output:

[root@centos build]# gclient runhooks

How to solve this to continue building steps ?

Answer 1

I had to edit the file common.gypi in trunk/build to change system_libdr% to be lib64, not lib. There's probably some way to pass that into gclient, but I couldn't figure out how. On Centos 64bit, the libs live in /usr/lib64.

Answer 2

You can override system_libdir with:

$ export GYP_DEFINES=system_libdir=lib64

I filed a Chromium bug to address this.

Answer 3

What is the python version installed on your system ?

I had the same issue and it was simply because my system provides python 2.7 instead of 2.6.

If that is also your case, you can try running it again with:

GYP_DEFINES=python_ver=2.7
