Description Sunshine 2014-06-24 05:50:30 UTC

I am trying to cross compile wayland for an arm-linux platform. During the make, I am getting following error..

CC       src/scanner.o
  CC       src/connection.lo
  CC       src/wayland-util.lo
  CC       src/wayland-os.lo
  CCLD     libwayland-util.la
  CCLD     wayland-scanner
  GEN      protocol/wayland-server-protocol.h
/bin/sh: ./wayland-scanner: cannot execute binary file
make: *** [protocol/wayland-server-protocol.h] Error 126

Thierry Reding has already given a patch for this problem. It is not yet merged. You can refer that in the below link for the solution:

Comment 2 Olivier Fourdan 2016-04-07 08:45:59 UTC

A similar patch was merged in wayland some time ago:

https://cgit.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland/commit/?id=21f80b8

But in any case, this seems to be an issue in wayalnd mroe than the xserver/xwayland.

Can we close this bug if the aforementioned commit fixes the issue, or else move that bug to wayland where it belongs?

Cross-compiling is a bit painful sometimes, but this does work if your environment is fully set up for wayland-scanner.
