13.10: Panda-Android Release source download and build fails

[Viswanath Puttagunta]

Issue:
- The command
  ./linaro_android_build_cmds.sh -m ~/<full_path>/pinned-manifest.xml
  fails. Code download is successful, but build fails
   (reference: http://releases.linaro.org/13.10/android/panda/)

Detailed Description
Two issues are seen:

1. Build error while building kernel defconfig

make: *** [android_kernel] Error 2
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

   Fix for this issue: comment out line 'export TARGET_KERNEL_SOURCE='
in linaro_android_build_cmds.sh file

2. After above fix, kernel build proceeds without failure, but we face another issue due to native-toolchain/svn dependency:.

    /home/vishp/linaro/ti/releases/panda/13.10/android/sources/android/native-toolchain/build.sh:
line 116: svn: command not found
make: *** [out/target/product/pandaboard/system/bin/gcc] Error 127
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

    Fix for this issue: Install subversion 'sudo apt-get install subversion;

After above 2 changes, I was able to build Android-panda successfully. Thanks to Vishal for narrowing down the issue and providing fixes.

Please fix the 'linaro_android_build_cmds.sh' script in the http://releases.linaro.org/13.10/android/panda/ at the earliest so that others will not face this issue.

Thanks,
Vish
