1186270 - Build error building B2G for Aries

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: GonkIntegration, defect)

Description

[Jonathan Watt [:jwatt]]

See https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla.dev.b2g/GV0LKnNy-O4

Running:

   BRANCH=master ./config.sh aries
   ./build.sh

I'm getting the following error when building B2G:

------
pull: /sbin/watchdogd -> ../../../backup-aries/root/sbin/watchdogd
10 files pulled. 0 files skipped.
1161 KB/s (2370098 bytes in 1.991s)
Pulling files from ../../../backup-aries
Invalid system backup - Wrong base version found: aries-eng 4.4.2 KOT49H 
eng.worker.20150721.152336 test-keys.

Do this:
1. Delete backup-aries
2. Flash your device with KK based images from the vendor
3. Try building again

 > Build failed! <
------

For context, I previously flashed "23.0.1.A.5.77 - Unbranded - USA (1289-7524)" 
from:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/list-stock-firmwares-d5803-d5833-t2906706

I then downloaded aries.zip from:

https://tools.taskcluster.net/index/artifacts/#gecko.v1.mozilla-central.latest.linux.aries-eng/gecko.v1.mozilla-central.latest.linux.aries-eng.opt

and ran its flash.sh to install Firefox OS. That all seemed to work.

When running ./build.sh from my B2G directory it seems to copy files to 
backup-aries just fine (242 MB worth).

NI on myself: I think we need to qualify and whitelist that firmware for building?

Please use a device running Android to pull blobs.

Put another way, I should have skipped the aries.zip step so that when I ran build.sh the phone still had android installed.
