1200335 - styles_base.xml:20: error: Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:Widget.Material.Button.Colored'.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1195691

(Firefox Build System :: Android Studio and Gradle Integration, defect)

Description

[Benoit Girard (:BenWa)]

Searching this issue points me to:
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=183149

Which suggests either using sdk 23, which AFAIK we don't support yet, or some really hacky solution.

This is blocking my compile. I'm explicitly using sdk 22 so I'm not sure why it's checking 23 compat stuff:
> ac_add_options --with-android-ndk="/Users/bgirard/mozilla/android-ndk/android-ndk-r8e"
> ac_add_options --with-android-sdk="/usr/local/Cellar/android-sdk/23.0.2/platforms/android-22"

Mach error:

I've tried the work around posted in the newsgroup but it didn't work.

We have been able to fix the build on IRC.

I updated the guide to mention deleting the old version before extracting the downloaded zip.
