getting errors while configuring android on ubuntu 11.10

Question

I am following all steps using this link .

The build was successful but when I say make -j4 I get the following error:

  frameworks/base/libs/utils/RefBase.cpp: In member function ‘void android::RefBase::weakref_type::trackMe(bool, bool)’:
  frameworks/base/libs/utils/RefBase.cpp:483:67: error: passing ‘const android::RefBase::weakref_impl’ as ‘this’ argument of ‘voidandroid::RefBase::weakref_impl::trackMe(bool, bool)’ discards qualifiers [-fpermissive]
  make: *** [out/host/linux-x86/obj/STATIC_LIBRARIES/libutils_intermediates/RefBase.o] Error 1
  make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

 compilation terminated.
  make: *** [out/host/linux-x86/obj/STATIC_LIBRARIES/libutils_intermediates/ResourceTypes.o] Error 1

Why am getting this error?? Is there anything I've done wrong?? Thanks for any help!

Answer 1

Your error is:

out/host/linux-x86/obj/STATIC_LIBRARIES/libutils_intermediates/ResourceTypes.d: Permission denied

Make sure the permissions on that file are correct for the user that is running the command.
