[SOLVED] Can't compile Android 5 on Arch Linux (problem with locale)

I followed the instructions on the wiki page, but the build failed with the following error message:

I actually trying building different branches (master, android-5.1.1_r13 and android-5.0.1_r1), actually downloading the entire source each time I tried a different branch. All builds stopped with the same exact error and segfault.

I couldn't find anything related to this build error on the internet. Maybe this is an incompatibility with a newer version of a package that android uses and I have to make a downgrade?

Additional info:

• bash was used;

• Arch Linux 64 bits (fully updated);

• Required packages: all requested packages were installed, but when I installed gcc-multilib I was prompted to remove gcc in order to replace it with gcc-multilib;

• Java: openjdk 1.7.0_85

• Python: set using virtualenv2 and with a symlink to 2.7.10

• repo init to branch android-5.0.1_r1 (and the other ones I noted above).

• lunch invoked for the config full-eng (although trying other configs such as aosp_arm-eng had the same results)

There are already a couple of threads in this forums discussing of similar issues, see https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=201067 and https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=200845.
By any chance do you have the [testing] repo enabled (post the content of /etc/pacman.conf)?

Re: [SOLVED] Can't compile Android 5 on Arch Linux (problem with locale)

Oh I had thought that it was a bug related to Android, not to arch's locale. No wonder I didn't find anything related to it.

I'll try the solutions on these topics tonight.

And no, I don't have the testing repo enabled.

@edit:

Solved the problem following what the guys at the 2nd topic said. If anyone has the same problem again, here are the instructions:

1. export LANG="" (I did both on my user and as root, dunno if both are needed)

2. rm /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive

3. Add the following line to /etc/locale.conf:

   LC_COLLATE=en_US.UTF-8

   Obviously, you can change from english to your language of choice.

4. Uncomment your language in /etc/locale.gen (don't know why but mine was commented. Maybe it was replaced in a pacman upgrade). I remember the recommendation from the wiki to only uncomment the UTF-8 versions.

5. run locale-gen

Didn't need any downgrades or upgrades to testing, only the steps above solved this error message I was having:

loadlocale.c:131: _nl_intern_locale_data: Assertion `cnt < (sizeof (_nl_value_type_LC_COLLATE) / sizeof (_nl_value_type_LC_COLLATE[0]))' failed

Well, I have the exact same problem as you, but following your instructions doesn't help at all actually. Very weird issue. Do you have locales other than en_US ones uncommented in /etc/locale.gen ?

Re: [SOLVED] Can't compile Android 5 on Arch Linux (problem with locale)

If you add

LANG=C 

prior to your build code which for me is

LANG=C ./rom-build.sh shamu

it should run fine.

Re: [SOLVED] Can't compile Android 5 on Arch Linux (problem with locale)

I actually add pt-BR.UTF-8 also.

This link also has another solution:
https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/3g9dzf/

Funny is that the problem reappears if I close the terminal, it only works if I am in the same session.

Re: [SOLVED] Can't compile Android 5 on Arch Linux (problem with locale)

I tried every solution but I still getting the error
flex-2.5.39: loadlocale.c:131: _nl_intern_locale_data: Assertion `cnt < (sizeof (_nl_value_type_LC_COLLATE) / sizeof (_nl_value_type_LC_COLLATE[0]))' failed.
Any clue ?

Re: [SOLVED] Can't compile Android 5 on Arch Linux (problem with locale)

If you've only got en_US locales in /etc/locale.conf, this is still problematic... To be able to build ROMs and use my desktop properly at the same time I have to actually edit the locale.conf, switch to actual console window outside X, then use tmux, and attach to that from gnome-terminal. Really a hassle but otherwise either the android compiling is broken or my desktop is half broken.

Thank you
Now I can build android on arch <3

EDIT : it worked one time
I'm again unable to build

Re: [SOLVED] Can't compile Android 5 on Arch Linux (problem with locale)

Finally I fixed the error
I built flex from source provided by google with new glibc
New bin : http://www.mediafire.com/download/te8gg … lex-2.5.39
File path : prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/flex/flex-2.5.39

EDIT:
My fix has been merged in cm
http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/108768/
Run export USE_HOST_LEX=yes at every build
