Error when syncing source

[dieselman8228]

When trying to sync to the repo I get this error....

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/aaron/halium/.repo/repo/main.py", line 56, in
from subcmds.version import Version
File "/home/aaron/halium/.repo/repo/subcmds/init.py", line 38, in

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I am trying to build for a Samsung tab 4.7.0 (degaswifi) any help would be appreciated.

I'm not sure, but maybe something to do with python 2 vs 3 and the version of the repo command you use?!

[dieselman8228]

I tried both commands out of the official build documentation. Is there a recommended python version?

I'm not sure much can be done here still years later, best build legacy Halium versions on legacy Ubuntu versions like 16.04 (or unfortunately maybe even 14.04) due to potentially many other incompatabilities from changes to userspace.

Python 2 was officially removed from repo since Ubuntu 24.04 LTS for example so there you'd have to find your own way around that anyway
