Are the GTK development libraries installed?

[nmcain]

For clarification, this is an issue with upstream GTK, it appears gobject-introspection is missing on the host device, as far as I can tell.

[jcoonrod]

Ok! I'll figure out how to add that and try again and revert! Thanks for the quick response.

[nmcain]

It should be a relatively quick sudo apt install gobject-introspection, I remember a related error when I was building regarding it, I'll have to look back and see what I did.

[jcoonrod]

Thanks - maybe good to add that to the pre-requisites list.

[jcoonrod]

Got a bit further..
d /home/john/buildroot/output/build/dap-latest&&dart pub get&&dart compile exe bin/pkg.dart&&cp bin/pkg.exe dap
/bin/bash: dart: command not found
make[1]: *** [package/pkg-generic.mk:270: /home/john/buildroot/output/build/dap-latest/.stamp_built] Error 127
make: *** [Makefile:84: _all] Error 2

Why would it be looking for a .exe file?

[quintenvandamme]

If you use dart compile exe bin/pkg.dart it generates a file called pkg.exe. In your case you don't have dart installed and thats why it can't build and find pkg.exe. For more info see https://dart.dev/.

[jcoonrod]

but is that something I can control or do I need to change your build files?

[quintenvandamme]

just install dart and rerun it

[nmcain]

The dap package can be disabled in menu config, make menuconfig, go to target packages - dahliaOS applications - and unselect dap

[jcoonrod]

Thanks for the quick responses! Installed dart. This is wonderfully mesmerizing watching it all stream by in the terminal. Have you all considered switching to the rust version of coreutils instead of the c ones?

[nmcain]

I'd certainly like to make the switch at some point, not sure how complete the rust coreutils are at this point, though.

[jcoonrod]

Oops - one more pre-requesite needed. /bin/bash: flutter: command not found
make[1]: *** [package/pkg-generic.mk:270: /home/john/buildroot/output/build/pangolin_desktop/.stamp_built] Error 127
make: *** [Makefile:84: _all] Error 2

Try try again!
Oops - this one has me baffled - do I need to delete stuff before restarting make?
fatal: destination path 'pangolin_desktop' already exists and is not an empty directory.
make[1]: *** [package/pkg-generic.mk:270: /home/john/buildroot/output/build/pangolin_desktop/.stamp_built] Error 128
make: *** [Makefile:84: _all] Error 2

[jcoonrod]

Ok - that sort of worked, then this happened: [ +4 ms] "flutter linux" took 2,668ms.
[ +4 ms] Error: No pubspec.yaml file found.
This command should be run from the root of your Flutter project.

From here, when the pangolin step errors out, you'll need to rm -rf output/build/pangolin*, the script is not written to clean itself up.
