[SOLVED] Can't get 17.1 compiled

[ajee]

Hi,

I just follow the instruction as the opnsense git said:

# pkg install git
# cd /usr
# rm -rf src ports
# git clone https://github.com/opnsense/plugins
# git clone https://github.com/opnsense/ports
# git clone https://github.com/opnsense/tools
# git clone https://github.com/opnsense/core
# git clone https://github.com/opnsense/src
# cd tools
# make cdrom

All these done on a newly installed FreeBSD 11.0. At the beginning I got some error like:
>>> Running build step: base
>>> /usr/src does not match expected branch: stable/17.1
>>> To continue anyway set SRCBRANCH=master
*** Error code 1

After I do on each directory by "git checkout stable/17.1" it can go on but finally failed at:

Installing gettext-tools-0.19.8.1...
`-- Installing gettext-runtime-0.19.8.1_1...
`-- Extracting gettext-runtime-0.19.8.1_1: 100%

Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'
*** Error code 128

I wonder why only me to ask this building problem, is there anything doing wrong? The full log as attached, please help to troubleshoot what happens.
Thanks

Hi ajee,

Sorry, forgot to push the core.git tag for 17.1.2.

# cd /usr/tools
# make update-core


Cheers,

hi, i followed the instruction as written in the tools readme, and also did "make update-core" but still complains:

>>> Running build step: base
>>> /usr/src does not match expected branch: stable/17.1
>>> To continue anyway set SRCBRANCH=master
*** Error code 1

how can i fix that ?
uname -a

ok.. reading in the forum here i found this:

cd /usr/src && git checkout stable/17.1
cd ../tools
make dvd

now its doing something ...

[franco]

Hi Bobbis,

in that case...

# make update-src




Cheers,
