[gentoo-user] android-sdk-update-manager, wrong permissions?

2013-05-28 Thread fruktopus
Hi,

i just emerged dev-util/android-sdk-update-manager-22 (~x86)
if I start it, it complains about not being able to create

/opt/android-sdk-update-manager/build-tools

after I created this directory similar problems followed. On a second
try I changed
/opt/android-sdk-update-manager/ 's group form 'root' to 'android' and
made it group writable

drwxrwxr-x 13 root android 4096 28. Mai 12:20 android-sdk-update-manager

this solved all problems. Should this be reported as a bug or did i
screwed it up somehow?

 Thanks, frukto

I confirm, i had the same issue with 21.1. And i think this is a bug.

It's probably a bug, you should report it at b.g.o.

I had the same problem years ago (back when the first Android phone -
the HTC G1 - was all the rage...) The root problem is that Google
assumes the sdk will be run in from home directory, not /opt, so the
ebuild must take care of proper owner and perms. It's an easy thing for
a dv to slip up on.

[gentoo-user] Android SDK

2010-10-07 Thread BRM
I noticed there have been a few Android SDK's in portage now for a while - 
originally android-sdk, now android-sdk-update-manager 
(http://packages.gentoo.org/package/dev-util/android-sdk-update-manager).
I know there is a bug on it - http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=320407 - 
but that's the only one I can find.

Anyone have an idea on when some version might go stable?
There's 7 versions in portage and all are testing; the first (version 3) goes 
back to November 2009.

TIA,

Ben

Apparently, though unproven, at 00:49 on Friday 08 October 2010, BRM did opine 
thusly:

You should file a stabilisation request at b.g.o. they are likely not in 
testing because there's something wrong with them, they are probably in 
testing because nobody has bothered bumping them to stable.

However, considering the speed that Google are releasing Android versions, I 
think that the usual gentoo arch/~arch methodology is a bit of a joke in this 
case. If you didn't use the ebuilds, you'd be installing the latest sdk from 
google anyway, right? All the ebuild does is unpack a binary archive into 
/opt, nothing magic there, no real compelling need to wait for a stable 
version. And it doesn't need any ~arch deps either

I say just be done with it, keyword the damn thing and install it.
