AOSP - Error: Overriding commands for target (...), previously defined at (...)


I'm trying to build AOSP for non - supported device (surnia - Moto E2 2015 LTE).

I solved lots of problems earlier but now I have one that I can't avoid. I saw a lot of people had that problem, but their was just warning...

What can I do? Or could you help me finding surnia device tree (but for stock AOSP)?

Solution

  • I've recently encountered a similar error. It's because of a duplicate entry in PRODUCT_COPY_FILES which both are trying to copy some file to the same destination out/target/product/surnia/system/vendor/lib/libHevcSwDecoder.so. This will cause en error.

    For me, the duplicate entry was in the following file:

    <AOSP_ROOT>/vendor/google_devices/<DEVICE_CODENAME>/<DEVICE_CODENAME>-vendor-blobs.mk
    

    For you, I think you should be looking for surnia-vendor-blobs.mk. Open this file and find the PRODUCT_COPY_FILES entry that has the destination out/target/product/surnia/system/vendor/lib/libHevcSwDecoder.so, then you can remove it to resolve the error.

    This is a workaround, unfortunately I couldn't figure out what's the root problem.
