@Clancey was trying to build xamarin-android, which failed:
The problem is that
make prepare-deps
, which buildsbuild-tools/dependencies/dependencies.mdproj
, implicitly buildsbuild-tools/xa-prep-tasks/xa-prep-tasks.csproj
, which in turndepends on
external/xamarin-android-tools/src/Xamarin.Android.Tools.AndroidSdk/Xamarin.Android.Tools.AndroidSdk.csproj
,which is only reliably created by
make prepare-external
sgit submodule update --init --recursive
.Unfortunately,
make prepare-external
wasn't invoked until aftermake prepare-deps
, meaning there is no way formake prepare
toactually work on a clean install!
(This works on Jenkins because Jenkins automatically checks out all
submodules, so it never encounters this "clean checkout" scenario.)
Reorder the targets that
make prepare
executes so thatmake prepare-external
is run beforemake prepare-deps
, ensuringthat git submodules exist before we attempt to use them.
