android 7.1.2 + ARMv7

Question

I met this problem when I was compiling the Android 7.1.2 source code after I updated my debian. I do not know what is the real problem . It seems problem from the flex. However, how can i solve it?

FAILED: /bin/bash -c "prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/flex/flex-2.5.39 -oout/host/linux-x86/obj/STATIC_LIBRARIES/libaidl-common_intermediates/aidl_language_l.cpp system/tools/aidl/aidl_language_l.ll" flex-2.5.39: loadlocale.c:130: _nl_intern_locale_data: Assertion `cnt < (sizeof (_nl_value_type_LC_TIME) / sizeof (_nl_value_type_LC_TIME[0]))' failed . Aborted

Answer 1

Same issue for me on Ubuntu 18.04. LC_TIME was set to en_GB.UTF-8.

export LC_ALL=C

Fixed it for me

Answer 2

I built AOSP (Android O/P) downloaded from Google on a newly setup 18.04 and it built fine. Did not have to change the locale. Locale was set to en_GB.UTF-8.

Then I had to build Android N, an IMX distro, on the same machine and the build failed with the above error. After changing the locale variable the build worked fine.

Answer 3

i was also facing the same error and before make i run "export LC_ALL=C" in terminal and Issue is fixed. How to integrate this variable in android source code so that i can avoid to run before compilation .
