Please install svn in the build environments

[Bernhard Rosenkraenzer]

Since linaro gcc is maintained in svn (rather than bzr) now, native-toolchain has been updated to pull gcc sources from there.
This causes the build to fail in android-build because svn isn't installed in the build environment ("svn: command not found").

While looking into this, it turned that all Natty EC2 apt repostories are gone now. So, we now really have no other choice than to upgrade to Precise, at least for builders. I did that, and added "subversion" package to the image too.

Test build:

Failed to build, and it looks like the failure may be related to the host OS (some library no longer pulling in -ldl automatically).

Should be very easy to fix in Android code though (just add -ldl), I'm on it.

[Bernhard Rosenkraenzer (berolinux)]

Actually something odd is going on, -ldl is already added manually and it still doesn't see dlsym and dlerror.
Investigating.

[Paul Sokolovsky (pfalcon)]

Well, that -ldl would come from Bionic, right? And that any issues with finding it would be toolchain's, and we use toolchainm built by us, not host OS's? Anyway, let me know if we need to switch to Natty to investigate this.

[Bernhard Rosenkraenzer (berolinux)]

No, it happens while building tools needed on the build host, using the OS toolchain.

It was easy to fix though:

http://review.android.git.linaro.org/4381

It's actually a bug in Android that has been around forever, just never showed up because apparently on anything but Precise the libdl dep is pulled in implicitly.

No need to change anything in the build env since the Android bug is fixed.

[Paul Sokolovsky (pfalcon)]

Ok, closing this then.
