Repo init can not succeed because of GnuTLS error

Question

I want to get the source code of Android. To browse some blogs in the Internet, "repo init" is recommended.

Then I use it, but it is impossible because of the following error.

android@ubuntu]~/WORKING_DIRECOTRY$ repo init -u xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Get https://gerrit.googlesource.com/git-repo
error:GnuTLS recv error (-9): A TLS packet with unexpected length was received while accessing  https://gerrit.googlesource.com/git-repo/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack
fatal:HTTP request failed

I wrote the Android source URL after "repo init -u", but I could not write the URL because this site tell me that new users can only post a maximum of two hyperlinks.

Answer 1

Sometimes this can be from the Version of Repo that you are using from The Google gerrit source. 1.18 is what I am using now.

What version of Ubuntu are you using? Google recommends that you use 10.04 or 10.10

Try to resync your /bin/repo binary and your Python install.

I know that if I added repo to just my local .bashrc PATH it gave me problems compared to adding it to the /etc/bash.bashrc

sudo gedit /etc/bash.bashrc 

Adding this to the bottom: 
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin

For the Setup, they also forgot this little bundle (which you will need to compile with)

sudo ln -s /usr/lib32/libX11.so.6 /usr/lib32/libX11.so

Some more information on your Environment and the Libs installed would be helpful.
