On hosts running Python 3.12, building the hosted MIPS toolchain fails
on glib with the error
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 2, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'imp'
gmake[6]: *** [Makefile:982: install-codegenPYTHON] Error 1
gmake[6]: Leaving directory '/tmp/rbdev-build/build-glib-2.46.2/gio/gdbus-2.0/codegen'
due to 'imp' being removed from Python 3.12 after a long deprecation
period. The module is imported by automake's py-compile script, but
in newer versions of automake this has been updated to use 'importlib'
instead, so running autoreconf fixes this.
We need to patch m4macros/glib-gettext.m4 to avoid an error running
autoreconf (see: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/issues/1159):
ac-wrapper: autoreconf: warning: auto-detected versions not found ( 2.69 2.69); falling back to latest available
autoreconf-2.71: export WARNINGS=

m4macros/glib-gettext.m4:39: error: m4_copy: won't overwrite defined macro: glib_DEFUN
m4macros/glib-gettext.m4:39: the top level
autom4te-2.71: error: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1
aclocal-1.16: error: /usr/bin/autom4te-2.71 failed with exit status: 1
autoreconf-2.71: error: aclocal failed with exit status: 1
This problem goes away in glib 2.47.5 when they switched to using
upstream gettext.

Build Your Own Rockbox
1. Clone 'rockbox' from git (or extract a downloaded archive).
$ git clone git://git.rockbox.org/rockbox
or
$ tar xjf rockbox.tar.bz2
2. Create a build directory, preferably in the same directory as the firmware/
and apps/ directories. This is where all generated files will be written.
$ cd rockbox
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
3. Make sure you have mips/m68k/arm-elf-gcc and siblings in the PATH. Make sure
that you have 'perl' in your PATH too. Your gcc cross compiler needs to be
a particular version depending on what player you are compiling for. These
can be generated using the rockboxdev.sh script in the /tools/ folder of the
source.
$ which arm-elf-eabi-gcc
$ which perl
4. In your build directory, run the 'tools/configure' script and enter what
target you want to build for and if you want a debug version or not (and a
few more questions). It'll prompt you. The debug version is for making a
gdb version out of it. It is only useful if you run gdb towards your target
Archos.
$ ../tools/configure
5. *ploink*. Now you have got a Makefile generated for you.
6. Run 'make' and soon the necessary pieces from the firmware and the apps
directories have been compiled, linked and scrambled for you.
$ make
$ make zip
7. unzip the rockbox.zip on your music player, reboot it and
*smile*.
If you want to build for more than one target, just create several build
directories and create a setup for each target:
$ mkdir build-fuzeplus
$ cd build-fuzeplus
$ ../tools/configure
$ mkdir build-xduoox3
$ cd build-xduoox3
$ ../tools/configure
