Android Compiling

[DoyleChris]

I have tried compiling the latest client version for android but ran into a small snag.

I used this link here https://dev.minetest.net/Android, but when i got down to the part to make.

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/minetest/minetest.git
cd minetest/build/android
make

and i ran make i get this error here.

/bin/sh: 5: svn: not found
You need to install svn :)
If you finish the compiling, try to build an arm64 apk to check if the network bug exist :>

Try to read the error message please.
You need sdkmanager to download some build tools or accept some licences.
If you're using a linux with graphics, try to use Android Studio to fix those bugs. (where the sdkmanager has a gui interface).

Good luck!

I did read the error message patrick55, i wont be asking if i didnt already install the SDK Manager.
But i am still getting the error.
If you can inform me how to work the licenses , instead of criticizing me if i read the error.
