PinePhone Sculpt Build Problems

[John J. Karcher]

Hello All,

I am trying to build the PinePhone sculpt image from source, using the 
"First system image of mobile Sculpt OS" Genodians article and the 
various "README" files as guides.

First, I made the recommended changes to "build.conf" (hopefully 
correctly).  When running "make run/sculpt_image KERNEL=hw 
BOARD=pinephone SCULPT=phone DEPOT=omit", it eventually gives the 
following error:

including /home/mainuser/Devel/genode_main/genode/tool/run/image/uboot
including 
/home/mainuser/Devel/genode_main/genode/repos/allwinner/tool/run/image/pine_uboot_sdcard
including /home/mainuser/Devel/genode_main/genode/tool/run/boot_dir/hw
including 
/home/mainuser/Devel/genode_main/genode/repos/gems/run/sculpt_image.run
can't read "arg": no such variable
     while executing
"puts stderr "missing run-tool argument: $arg""
     (procedure "assert_run_arg" line 4)
     invoked from within
"assert_run_arg "--image-uboot-gzip-best""
     (file 
"/home/mainuser/Devel/genode_main/genode/repos/gems/run/sculpt_image.run" 
line 34)
...

This is too cryptic for me, as I am anything but a build system expert.

The following steps may be unnecessary, but I was just trying things 
that seemed reasonable.  Running "prepare_port pine_uboot" worked fine, 
but "make u-boot/pine BOARD=pinephone" says:

checking library dependencies...

make[1]: *** [var/libdeps:23: pine_uboot.prg] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:336: gen_deps_and_build_targets] Error 2

I probably made a configuration mistake or forgot a step (or multiple). 
Building the regular PC version of Scuplt works fine.

Does any of this sound familiar to anyone?

  Thanks!
