Phantomjs seems to be unable to work on arm architecture

[Денис Головкин]

Hi all.

I'm trying to build "Brackets editor" under Cubian OS, armv7 architecture, the build process described here and needs nodejs.

On the "npm install" step it downloads phantomjs

root@Cubian:/home/cubie/Downloads/brackets-release-1.1# npm install
|
> phantomjs@1.9.11 install /home/cubie/Downloads/brackets-release-1.1/node_modules/phantomjs
> node install.js

Done. Phantomjs binary available at /home/cubie/Downloads/brackets-release-1.1/node_modules/phantomjs/lib/phantom/bin/phantomjs

You can mention, that linux-i686 was used.

After that, when running "grunt build" command it unexpectedly stops:

root@Cubian:/home/cubie/Downloads/brackets-release-1.1# grunt build
Running "jshint:src" (jshint) task
>> 293 files lint free.

Aborted due to warnings.

Then i've tried to build phantomjs from source, to match armv7 architecture. I launched that commands:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential chrpath git-core libssl-dev libfontconfig1-dev libxft-dev
git clone git://github.com/ariya/phantomjs.git
cd phantomjs
git checkout 1.9
./build.sh

But after running "./build.sh" nothing happens.

I've checked if $MAKEFLAGS environment variable contains comething, but it seems to be empty.

So, i stuck here.

By the way, sorry if my english dissappoints, it's not my native language.

Now i trying to follow build process described here.

Compilation lasts about 6 hours on single core 1 Ghz machine.

I'll keep you informed.
