aelmahmoudy / cryptsetup-android Goto Github PK

Hello,

I'm attempting to build this on an Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS virtual machine using android-ndk-r10d. Everything builds except cryptsetup itself:

checking for dm_task_set_uuid in -ldevmapper... no
configure: error: Cannot link with static device-mapper library.
make: *** [cryptsetup/Makefile] Error 1

Building against:
cryptsetup-1.6.7.tar.gz
libgcrypt-1.6.3.tar.gz
libgpg-error-1.19.tar.gz
LVM2.2.02.111.tgz
popt-1.16.tar.gz
util-linux-2.25.2.tar.gz

Any thoughts or suggestions?

The pkg-config module is also required for building.

The line
install required software: sudo apt-get install autoconf automake libtool autopoint git make patch

should be changed to include pkg-config
install required software: sudo apt-get install autoconf automake libtool autopoint git make patch pkg-config

Then your instructions should mention initializing the git submodules
git submodule init
git submodule update

Thanks for keeping it alive.

cryptsetup segfaults when attempting to access/create LUKS devices. It works with loop-AES devices though.

Attempting to update LVM2 to v2_02_97 in hope that this would fix the issue, but it wouldn't compile !
