I tried setting GN_DEFINES=is_official_build=true proprietary_codecs=true ffmpeg_branding=Chrome is_component_build=true
But got assert(!is_component_build)

So instead tried setting GN_DEFINES=is_component_build=true proprietary_codecs=true ffmpeg_branding=Chrome
and am building with that

Is there anywhere I can find a list of the possible GN_DEFINES and their usages?
What GN_DEFINES are used for the official builds? I guess is_official_build=true but are there any others?

Component builds are only for local debugging.

Official build args are listed at https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/ ... figuration

I've just realized the previous build failed because of LLVM ERROR: IO failure on output stream: no space on device.
I'll make some space and retry that

A build with GN_DEFINES set to is_official_build=true use_thin_lto=false proprietary_codecs=true ffmpeg_branding=Chrome works OK

So it seems use_thin_lto=false is now required

I am now building 5060 branch and have hit the same issue with apache

Code: Select all

It appears this issue was transient previously and retrying the build might fix it.
However rerunning automate git does not retry this download.
Is there any way to force that without starting again from scratch?

You can run "gclient runhooks" manually. If it otherwise succeeds you won't need the apache files for a CEF build. See also https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/ ... e-failures

I had already tried "gclient runhooks" which didn't appear to do anything.
So I tried "gclient sync --with_branch_heads" and then I could continue and build normally
Thanks for the help
