Cerbero Android cross compilation with MACOSX

[stic at free.fr]

Hello,

here is an update about my problem about cross compiling GStreamer for Android on MacOSX.

I successfully ran 'cerbero bootstrap'.
My problem was that (i think) I misunderstood the documentation and I created a ~/.cerbero/cerbero.cbc with Android target system parameters. I removed it and 'cerbero bootstrap' is now successfully completed.

My next step is simple: i try to cross compile gstreamer sdk for Android from Macosx system.
So I want to run the following command line: cerbero -c config/cross-android.cbc package gstreamer-sdk
Here are the steps I did but please tell me if I am doing something wrong :
 - cerbero seems to look only after a linux ndk, so I replaced it with a ndk working on my system, a darwin ndk release one.
 - then I modified config/android.config paths to point to the darwin ndk
 - then I run cerbero -c config/cross-android.cbc package gstreamer-sdk

I am stopped with the following errors:
-------

make: *** [libz.a] Error 1
***** Error running 'package' command:

Can you please provide me some feedbacks on what could be wrong ?

Thanks.

Objet: Cerbero Android cross compilation with MACOSX

Hello, 

sorry to bother you again ... :)
I have another issue, I try to use cerbero on OSX system to cross compile for Android platform.
But when I am trying to run cerbero bootstrap, I am always ending up with the following error:

Is Android cross compiling available for MACOSX host system ?
Any similar messages I found on the discussion board did not help me much ... can you please try to give me some feedback ?

Thank you all.
