CEF 4472 build fails on Mac: Wrong keys git_dependencies

[logicp]

I posted earlier about building on 5672 on Mac here: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=19498

That build succeeded, but now I'm trying to build 4472 on the same machine and ran into one of the same issues I had seen with 5672:

Code: Select all

Error: 1> Wrong keys 'git_dependencies' in {'vars': {'build_with_chromium': True, ................................ (extremely long output)


Here is my build setup:

Code: Select all

export PATH=/Users/embucksh/code/depot_tools:$PATH
export GN_DEFINES='proprietary_codecs=true ffmpeg_branding="Chrome" is_official_build=false'
export GN_ARGUMENTS='--ide=vs2019 --sln=cef --filters=//cef/*'

python3 automate-git.py --download-dir=/Users/embucksh/code/chromium_git --branch=4472 --minimal-distrib --force-clean --force-config --x64-build --with-pgo-profiles


Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

From https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/ ... nsupported:

You will need to (a) manually download depot_tools, (b) sync depot_tools to a revision that existed at the time of the branch, and (c) set the DEPOT_TOOLS_UPDATE=0 environment variable to keep it from updating automatically.

See viewtopic.php?f=6&t=19525&p=53933 for background on this particular issue.
