User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/44.0.2403.155 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce: Tried to prepare a build environment in a vanilla Arch linux with both wget and curl following https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Fennec/Android#Building_Fennec Actual results: Got an error in both of them in the build script urging me to file a bug Expected results: It should have installed and configured build environment

Suggested change: If we change include parenthesis "()" in the acrhlinux.py file in mozbot. This should work. Apparently this is happening because I have python 3. And that file uses python 2.7 conventions

The whole bootstrap script is for python 2.7 and won't work with python 3.

(In reply to Mike Hommey [:glandium] from comment #2) > The whole bootstrap script is for python 2.7 and won't work with python 3. Got that. And made it to work on mine. But apparently the present bootstrap cannot handle installation of fennec (for android) in arch linux. So even without this....it was still a fail

Android setup is not implemented in bootstrap. You will need to create your environment manually. I recommend running boostrap as suggested for Firefox desktop development and dealing with the Java/Android SDK/NDK as outlined in https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Fennec/Android/Detailed_build_instructions#Linux

To be clear bootstrap is only supported on Ubuntu/Debian. For Arch Linux someone would need to provide the code, https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/python/mozboot/mozboot/archlinux.py?offset=300#78 and the older bug 1114718.
