[SOLVED] E's entrance-git not building

Code:

==> entrance-git dependencies:
 - efl (already installed)
 - xorg-xauth (already installed)
 - sudo (already installed)
 - git (already installed) [makedepend]
 - meson (already installed) [makedepend]

what is this meson_options.txt:9:0: ERROR: Option name debug is reserved. error all about and how can I fix that? it is not located within the build script whatsoever.

you still didn't learn:
1. what are you doing at all? (what package/file, where is it from, what commands, whatever else might be important...)
2. especially did you check the mentioned log file?

did you see this bold part in my post?

'meson_options.txt:9:0: ERROR: Option name debug is reserved.'

I have no idea where that file is located, it is not made mention of in the build script. after I posted I remembered, then looked on the web page for messages about this package. nope, missed that line below the ERROR message.

though I did get it to compile, forgot what I did to get it to, I think I just took it to the source, compiled, installed, crashed, looked it up on git, seen the image they use, I remember it looking a lot cooler back when, so I just put that little project aside.

Obviously I saw.
That's why you would need to give more info. A useless line will not help.

BW-userx · 10-23-2018, 11:59 AM

that is why I could not even figure it out. I searched the build script then went to source code as that is all the build script is doing anyways.

Ok, again: This LQ forum is really good, you can ask anything - if you cannot figure out. That's what I do too. But this is only one aspect. The other one: see here. If you [would] give more information about your problem you will/would get better responses/answers. Dropping in a meaningless error message will lead to a meaningless one-liner answer. It is not about you, it is about the nature of communication, nature of people.
I know you think there is someone who is actually familiar with that message and will give you a how-to-solve-it-in-5-minutes immediately, but I'm afraid, posting without context makes it impossible.
