Re: [ft] Building Freetype 2.6 for Android fails with "arm-linux-androideabi-ranlib: not found".

[Yaron Cohen-Tal]

Damn I feel stupid...

Turns out "sudo" carries over all my other environment variables, but it doesn't carry over "PATH". I didn't manage to "sudo" while carrying over "PATH", so I ran by hand:

sudo -sE
export PATH=${PLATFORM_PREFIX}/bin:$PATH
make install

Thanx!

Your "sudo" carries over your PATH environment
