Dear List,

I have an issue since 5-10 days when building android from source,

I have been building it for months with no problem.

At one point in the building process, make will stop with this error: make: execvp: /bin/bash: Argument list too long

After some search, I found this error is thrown by execvp(), following

The execvpe() function appears in glibc. My glibc is the one from core, 2.17-3, and has been reinstalled. Building AUR packages don't give any error.

The android ROM I am building is very closed to the android open

The following line from android envsetup output puzzles me: HOST_OS_EXTRA=Linux-3.8.4-1-ARCH-x86_64-with-glibc2.2.5

What is this glibc2.2.5 ?? I think it's the glibc version of the box that compiled the kernel.

Thank you for any help.

I built the Kernel !! Android Kernel built with no issue. Only the android ROM building is broken

I was referring to your host kernel not the android kernel of the ROM. What is the command 'uname -a' says?

Linux magnolia 3.8.4-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Mar 20 22:10:25 CET 2013 x86_64 GNU/Linux

[gabx@magnolia:~]$ sudo pacman -Q | grep glibc [sudo] password for gabx: glibc 2.17-3 lib32-glibc 2.17-2

Just one thought. Can this error comes form the android-eabi toolchain used to build android instead of my system? It could be more logical, as the ROM is built by an arm toolchain.
