some thing error in build avatar-panda

[ZakiG]

Hi,
I want to build avatar-panda. But when I use make -j4, I got those strange error:
API arm-softmmu/panda/plugins/osi/osi_ext.h API arm-softmmu/panda/plugins/callstack_instr/callstack_instr_ext.h Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/XXXXXX/ndss18_wycinwyc/panda_modifications/avatar-panda/panda/scripts/pp.py", line 86, in <module> if (p[0] == '#'): continue IndexError: string index out of range /home/XXXXXX/ndss18_wycinwyc/panda_modifications/avatar-panda/panda/Makefile.panda.target:68: recipe for target 'plog.proto' failed make[1]: *** [plog.proto] Error 1 Makefile:324: recipe for target 'subdir-arm-softmmu' failed
My installation process is followed the build_panda_wycinwyc.sh and I believe all dependencies are installed.
However , when I build PANDA, the compilation process is fine.
Best,
Zaki

I agree with the strangeness of this bug and have no explanation by hand.
Can you describe more your build environment? Over here, avatar-panda builds just fine.

Also, as you were following ``build_panda_wycinwyc.sh` - did you verify that you copied over and modified the Makefiles in the right way?

Sorry for all the complications.

Best,
Marius

I met this error, too. Ubuntu16.04, and run build_panda_wycinwyc.sh directly. (In fact, I fix line 23 git submodule update --init avatar-panda to git clone https://github.com/avatartwo/avatar-panda.git --depth=1, because I try some times and can't not git clone avatar-panda by former command).
And I fix the pp.py file to build continue:

if (len(p) == 0 or p[0] == '#'): 
        continue

By the way, in line 101 has the same python code, but I don't fix that.
Maybe run the build_panda_wycinwyc.sh script will has some problems? but can according to the messages fix them.
