cerbero cross build errors

[Mailing List SVR]

Hi,

I'm trying to rebuild gstreamer for android using cerbero, I have 
several issues:

git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer-sdk/cerbero
cd cerbero
./cerbero-uninstalled -c config/cross-android.cbc bootstrap

first error:

configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --disable-maintainer-mode
[(1/7) automake -> compile ]
Running command 'make'
CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && 
perllibdir="/home/nicola/cerbero/sources/buid-tools/automake-1.12.4/lib:./lib" 
"/home/nicola/cerbero/sources/buid-tools/automake-1.12.4/aclocal" 
--acdir=m4 -I m4
/bin/bash:

file or directory
make: *** [aclocal.m4] Error 127
***** Error running 'bootstrap' command:
Recipe 'automake' failed at the build step 'compile'

fix:

cd ~/cerbero/sources/build-tools/automake-1.12.4
sh bootstrap.sh

./cerbero-uninstalled -c config/cross-android.cbc bootstrap (android sdk 
redownloaded)

autoreconf: aclocal failed with exit status: 63

now the problem is that autoreconf show as version "UNKNOWN-dirty"

I can continue to fix here and there but since cerbero is used to 
generate android buils I think I'm doing something wrong,

any advices?

thanks
Nicola
