Error building Gingerbread?

[trock]

This is my first attempt at building AOSP. I went though all the steps
to build Gingerbread and after some trial and error I am at a point
that I don't understand. When getting to the build I get this.

Can someone please explain?

My best guess is that you ran your original repo init in a directory
that wasn't empty, and the build system found some Android.mk file in
there and incorporated it into the build, in a way that caused
conflicts.

I suggest that you create a new clean empty directory, run repo init
there, copy .repo/projects from your existing client, and repo sync
it. That should take care of things.

I am just beginning and saw a similar error building rowboat

My  Rules.make was not actually pointing to the kernel

I now get this,

Can someone please explain what the issue is with Rules.make and how
to fix it.

Thanks

Creating a symbolic link frameworks kludge under frameworks/base fixes
some of the errors. Looks like the base directory
for frameworks base is not set right somewhere and it is adding an
additional "frameworks/base" which is fixed by adding
the additional symbolic link

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

Oh, that error reported by "find" is actually a known harmless issue.
We should add it to the documentation.
