Error when when using chromeos=1

[David]

Hey,

So until recently I have been able to build chromium on ubuntu with the chromeos=1 flag to write browser_tests for the Files app.  

Now whenever I run the following I get an error during the last step. 

• git fetch origin
  
• git reset --hard origin/master
• gclient sync
• GYP_DEFINES="chromeos=1 component=shared_library remove_webcore_debug_symbols=1" gclient runhooks

The error I get is below and it only occurs when I add the chromeos=1 part. I have tried over several days of resyncing because I don't really know enough to debug it myself. 

Has something changed that I need to do or has anyone seen this error?

Did you try with `git pull --rebase` instead?

I tired 'git pull --rebase' but got the same result at the gclient runhooks step. 

[Thiago Farina]

Are you checking out src-internal? Does it work without chromeos=1 and remove_webcore_debug_symbols=1? Have you tried setting GYP_DEFINES before `gclient sync`? (gclient sync will run runhooks at the end for you).

I just have a regular chromium checkout. 

Yes the gclient runhooks part completes when I remove chromeos=1. 

Setting GYP_DEFINES with the chromeos=1 part before gclient sync gives the same error when I then run gclient sync.

However, when try to build after excluding chromeos=1 from GYP_DEFINES, the build fails with a similar error in bold about processing a node.

Does it help with you clobber your output directory (rm -rf out/) and start over?

Has your hard disk enough space left?

Yeh that's what I ended up doing and it's working now. 

Thanks for helping anyway :)
