Could you kindly share your env variables. I have resolved this issue by removing the variables associated to clang.

Hello

Thank you so much. I am pasting the environment variables using printenv command. Please let me know if this is the one you asked for or something different.

I am building this on the Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS.

Try to move `/home/vsrini4/chromium/depot_tools` on the top of the $PATH variable. May be it work!

[vidya srinivas]

Thank you so much. Will give it a try.

This is https://bugs.chromium.org/p/gn/issues/detail?id=360.

There's some logic that's out of sync and should be fixed in GN.

Hello all,

Recently, I encountered the same error. Finally, I figured out my gn pointed to an old version in /usr/bin/gn and its version is only 1000. The latest version of gn should be 2175. Fixed this error by replacing the old with latest one.

Regards,

Simon Wei
