Source code build fail for RT-AC86U

[qwe852]

Hi,


I'm trying to build the source code with multipass.

I follow the steps of Wiki. (https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-merlin.ng/wiki/Compile-Firmware-from-source)

But the "make rt-ac86u" always fails.

I noticed that some .o files are missing in the console. And the end of the make log shows "recipe for target 'bin' failed".

I couldn't find these files on the folder and GitHub.

How do I retrieve these files?


Thanks

Does anyone have the same issue?

Does anyone have the same issue?

I suspect very few of the members here bother to compile their own firmware anymore - now that certain components [notably TrendMicro stuff and other closed source bits] are no longer made available with the GPL by Asus.
RMerlin seems to be the ONLY person who has been provided with special tools to incorporate those missing bits into firmware for certain Asus Router models.

As far as I know - this script still successfully compiles firmware without the TrendMicro excluded bits ...

Good luck .

Thanks for your reply. I've been compiled successfully.
Just like you mentioned, the source code can be compiled without those .o files.

I switched OS to ubuntu 20.04. And installed automake and automake-1.15 by apt-get. The problem seems caused by automake version.

Anyway, thanks a lot.
