make chrome-build failed

[WellingtonSI]

I follow all the native build steps, but when I get to the moment to run the "make chrome-build" command I get this error "make: *** No rules for creating the 'chrome-build' target. Stop." . I run this command inside the build folder, following the command order and I understood that it would be in that location.

did you run ../configure first?

[WellingtonSI]

yes, I ran the ../config command first and the only error I got was "configure: error: failed to find zlib"

Then you need to make sure that configure runs successfully. The configure script generates the Makefile.

For zlib, consider using brew or apt to install libz on your platform.

[WellingtonSI]

If the Makefile script is generated inside the Build folder where the configure command was made, then it was unsuccessful. What could cause the failure and would there be a message indicating?

[lwthiker]

@WellingtonSI Can you provide more details on the errors you face, including the commands that you ran and their output? Right now it is difficult to understand exactly the problem you are facing.

apt install zlib1g-dev did work for me on Debian.
