Bug 686984 – dev-util/electron-2.0.17-r1 - ninja: error: '.../work/electron-2.0.17/chromium/out/Release/clang_x64_v8_arm64/mksnapshot', needed by 'static_library/mksnapshot', missing and no known rule to make it

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Marcus Comstedt 2019-05-30 08:45:47 UTC]

When building dev-util/electron-2.0.17-r1 on arm64, the build stops with the following error message:

ninja: error: '/var/tmp/portage/dev-util/electron-2.0.17-r1/work/electron-2.0.17/chromium/out/Release/clang_x64_v8_arm64/mksnapshot', needed by 'static_library/mksnapshot', missing and no known rule to make it

Apparently the create-dist script in libchromiumcontent thinks we are cross-
compiling from x86_64, even though this is a native build.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge dev-util/electron-2.0.17-r1 on arm64
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
The build fails

Expected Results:  
The build succeeds

    dev-util/electron: Fix build issues
    
    Fix libvpx build issues by pinning the dependency and adding
    system-libvpx USE-flag.
    
    Pin dev-util/gn version, as newer GN seems to be breaking the
    build.
    
    Fix build on non-x86, courtesy of Marcus Comstedt.
