Hi, I am trying to build (and eventually cross compile) GRPC from source. I can't find any good information on this anywhere so I am stuck just trying to get it to build on my machine.
I have c-ares, protobuf etc built on my machine and I want to use them for supplying to GRPC. However I am getting the following error when running make: host,grpc: Done (3) host,grpc: Running Commands host,grpc: Package libcares was not found in the pkg-config search path. host,grpc: Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libcares.pc' host,grpc: to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable host,grpc: No package 'libcares' found host,grpc: Package protobuf was not found in the pkg-config search path. host,grpc: Perhaps you should add the directory containing `protobuf.pc' host,grpc: to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable host,grpc: No package 'protobuf' found host,grpc: Package protobuf was not found in the pkg-config search path. host,grpc: Perhaps you should add the directory containing `protobuf.pc' host,grpc: to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable host,grpc: No package 'protobuf' found host,grpc: echo " HAS_PKG_CONFIG = true, HAS_SYSTEM_OPENSSL_NPN = true, HAS_SYSTEM_ZLIB = true, HAS_SYSTEM_PROTOBUF = true, HAS_SYSTEM_CARES = true," | tr , '\n' >cache.mk host,grpc: host,grpc: DEPENDENCY ERROR host,grpc: host,grpc: The target you are trying to run requires protobuf-compiler 3.0.0+ host,grpc: Your system doesn't have it, and neither does the third_party directory. host,grpc: host,grpc: Please consult INSTALL to get more information. host,grpc: host,grpc: If you need information about why these tests failed, run: host,grpc: host,grpc: make run_dep_checks host,grpc: host,grpc: Additionally, since you are in a git clone, you can download the host,grpc: missing dependencies in third_party by running the following command: host,grpc: host,grpc: git submodule update --init host,grpc: host,grpc: Makefile:946: recipe for target 'stop' failed host,grpc: make: *** [stop] Error 1 Path: output/host/grpc/work/grpc Arg[0] = 'make' Arg[1] = 'CFLAGS=-I/home/mattb/code/OpenFlowDev/buildsys/output/host/grpc/staging/local/usr/include -std=c99' Arg[2] = 'CXXFLAGS=-I/home/mattb/code/OpenFlowDev/buildsys/output/host/grpc/staging/local/usr/include -std=c++11' Arg[3] = 'prefix=/local/usr' Arg[4] = 'PROTOC=/home/mattb/code/OpenFlowDev/buildsys/output/host/grpc/staging/local/usr/bin/protoc' Arg[5] = 'HAS_SYSTEM_PROTOBUF=true' Arg[6] = 'HAS_SYSTEM_CARES=true' Arg[7] = 'LDFLAGS=-L/home/mattb/code/OpenFlowDev/buildsys/output/host/grpc/staging/local/usr/lib' Arg[8] = 'HAS_PKG_CONFIG=true' Arg[9] = 'PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/home/mattb/code/OpenFlowDev/buildsys/output/host/grpc/staging/local/usr/lib/pkgconfig/' Arg[10] = 'V=1' Arg[11] = 'Q=' What am I supply as make arguments to get the script to use the packages on my system?
