Technical informations

This bug occurs because of a mismatch between v1-q branches in e/devices/android_device_sony_kitakami-common and the other device and kernel repos. Probably caused by merges attempting to fix issues #3014 (closed), #3847 (closed).

Solutions

The build needs to use the upstream lineage-17.1 branches of e/devices/android_device_sony_kitakami-common and e/devices/android_device_sony_suzuran and the lineage-18.1 branch of e/devices/android_kernel_sony_msm8994>

This can be done EITHER,

  • by specifying those versions in the upstream v1-q branch of the manifest (e/os/local_manifests/suzuran.xml

OR

  • by removing/ renaming the existing v1-q branch in those repos and recreating the directly from the upstream branches
