Description

Just want to build rive-android with debug mode as CONTRIBUTE.md step but I got a problem.

Error log

[Update]

I also tried to build with the below command but got the error
./build.rive.for.sh -a arm64-v8a

~/Work/code/rive-android/kotlin/src/main/cpp

+ pushd /Users/[hoang.vu/Work/code/rive-android/kotlin/src/main/cpp/../../../../submodules/rive-cpp/../pls](http://hoang.vu/Work/code/rive-android/submodules/pls)

./[build.rive.for.sh](http://build.rive.for.sh/): line 158: pushd: /Users/[hoang.vu/Work/code/rive-android/kotlin/src/main/cpp/../../../../submodules/rive-cpp/../pls](http://hoang.vu/Work/code/rive-android/submodules/pls): No such file or directory

Base on the error content , I also tried to create pls folder under the submodule but still get error at this line

+ premake5 --out=out/android/arm64/release --config=release --scripts=/Users/[hoang.vu/Work/code/rive-android/kotlin/src/main/cpp/../../../../submodules/rive-cpp/build](http://hoang.vu/Work/code/rive-android/submodules/rive-cpp/build) --with_rive_text --with_rive_audio=system --with_rive_layout --no-rive-decoders --os=android --arch=arm64 gmake2

Error: invalid option 'arch'

Any workaround here ?

[vegeta2102]

It seems the problem comes from the Mac M3 chip ?
