866489 - Can't build B2G on Ubuntu 13.04: zconf.h is missing

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: GonkIntegration, defect)

Description

[Justin Lebar (not reading bugmail)]

This is some multilib crap that I don't really understand.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zlib/+bug/1155307

I'm not sure if there's anything we can do to work around this, but at the very least I wanted to have a bug on file.

This seemed to let my build proceed.  It's probably no more broken than it was in the old version of Ubuntu...

ln -s /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/zconf.h /usr/include

You can install both zlib1g-dev:amd64 and zlib1g-dev:i386 at the same time.

Address requiring zlib1g-dev:{amd64,i386} on Ubuntu 13.04 in README.md only.

Or, you might rather close this issue as WORKFORME :)

I've modified the build prerequisites page on MDN with the new information, can you please double-check if the packages listed and options are correct?

Hi Gabriele,

This takes a long long time to verify and I have only packages list for Ubuntu 12.04 Precise for now. I'll try my best to gather necessary information asap, okay?

  $ sudo aptitude --visual-preview -R install libgl1-mesa-dev libgl1-mesa-dev \
  libncurses5-dev:i386 libasound2 flex ccache git zlib1g-dev zlib1g-dev:i386 \
  libxt6 autoconf2.13 g++-4.6-multilib bison libgtk2.0-0 patch zip unzip \
  libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 libdbus-glib-1-2 libx11-dev:i386 make

Note that `aptitude --visual-preview -R` works exactly the same with `apt-get install --no-install-recommends` but with visual preview, of course.

Great! Just found why I can't re-create a new chroot with selections above.  libncurses5-dev listed is actually libncurses5-dev:i386, but it seems `dpkg --get-selections` doesn't reflect this.  I have to attach results of `dpkg -l` instead for more detailed, complete information of all installed packages.

This error occurred to me in Mint 17 Qiana 64 bits.
Solved by manually installing this package: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/i386/zlib1g-dev/1:1.2.8.dfsg-1ubuntu1
