'adb devices' Command not properly working

[sasmitman]

Hi. I'm currently working off of the yocto Krogoth branch and wanted to add adb to my root file system, so I pulled in the android-tools folder from the pyro branch. I was able to bitbake it successfully but when I run adb devices on my arm board, nothing shows up. However, when I put this version on my board, it displays the device that I have attached. What could be causing this discrepancy?

its possible that the version we have in meta-oe is not configured/compiled properly, if possible can you try it on latest master and see if situation is still same

Still happens on master. The version in meta-oe is about 5 years outdated. I was able to build adb myself based on https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/tree/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=packages/android-tools, but it only builds on clang, not sure what the porting process would be to get it compiling on gcc.

See http://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded-contrib/log/?h=jansa/android which upgrades it to recent version, but I haven't finished it yet.

@shr-project you could generate build.ninja beforehand and drop the ruby dependency.
