1339551 - mach errors when trying to build and compile for the first time

Status: NEW

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

Description

[Epransky]

Followed the quickstart instructions here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_guide/Build_Instructions/Simple_Firefox_for_Android_build

Everything was fine until I tried running the mach commands. Nothing seems to be working correctly. I have src/mozilla-central and a mozconfig file in mozilla-central with the following contents:
# Build Firefox for Android:
ac_add_options --enable-application=mobile/android
ac_add_options --target=arm-linux-androideabi

# With the following Android SDK and NDK:
ac_add_options --with-android-sdk="/home/epranskee/.mozbuild/android-sdk-linux"
ac_add_options --with-android-ndk="/home/epranskee/.mozbuild/android-ndk-r11b"

When I run mach build from the mozilla-central dir, it runs a bunch of things but always ends with
 checking for rustc... not found
