I need an Android development environment. I briefly looked into rooting
|
||
|
|
the Asus Transformer so I could put a Debian chroot on it and build
|
||
|
|
git-annex in there, but this quickly devolved to the typical maze of
|
||
|
|
forum posts all containing poor instructions and dead links. Not worth it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Instead, I'm doing builds on my Sheevaplug, and once I have a static armel
|
||
|
|
binary, will see what I need to do to get it running on Android.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Fixed building with the webapp disabled, was broken by recent improvements.
|
||
|
|
I'll be building without the webapp on arm initially, because ghci/template
|
||
|
|
haskell on arm is still getting sorted out. (I tried ghc 7.6.2 and ghci is
|
||
|
|
available, but doesn't quite work.)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
From there, I got a binary built pretty quickly (well, it's arm, so not *too*
|
||
|
|
quickly). Then tried to make it static by appending
|
||
|
|
`-optl-static -optl-pthread` to the ghc command line.
|
||
|
|
This failed with a bunch of errors:

Disabling DBUS and (temporarily) XMPP got around that.

Result!

Next: Copy binary to Android device, and watch it fail in some interesting way.

Repeat.

Also more bug triage this morning...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Got the pre-commit hook to update direct mode mappings.
|
||
|
|
Uses `git diff-index HEAD` to find out what's changed. The only
|
||
|
|
tricky part was detecting when `HEAD` doesn't exist yet. Git's
|
||
|
|
plumbing is deficient in this area. Anyway, the mappings get updated
|
||
|
|
much better now.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Fixed a wacky bug where `git annex uninit` behaved badly on a filesystem
|
||
|
|
that does not support hardlinks.
