Build problem related to the log library

[jonkri]

Hi!

I'm trying to compile the latest version but Cabal can't find the log library.

I have installed the android-liblog-dev package.

$ ls /usr/include/android/log
event_tag_map.h  log_event_list.h  log_main.h	     log_radio.h  log_safetynet.h  log_time.h	    logprint.h
log.h		 log_id.h	   log_properties.h  log_read.h   log_system.h	   log_transport.h

This is the output from the build:

$ cabal install android-activity-0.2.0.2

Configuring library for android-activity-0.2.0.2..
Error: cabal: Missing dependency on a foreign library:
* Missing (or bad) C library: log
This problem can usually be solved by installing the system package that
provides this library (you may need the "-dev" version). If the library is
already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the flags
--extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where it is.If the
library file does exist, it may contain errors that are caught by the C
compiler at the preprocessing stage. In this case you can re-run configure
with the verbosity flag -v3 to see the error messages.

Error: cabal: Failed to build android-activity-0.2.0.2. See the build log
above for details.

I also tried to set --extra-include-dirs=/usr/include/android/log and --extra-lib-dirs=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/android but that didn't seem to make a difference.

Any hints would be appreciated!

Thanks!
