Build Redroid 14 with MindTheGapps "upsilon" will encounter "unrecognized property 'preprocessed'" ERROR
Hello,
Following the "Build Redroid with Docker" document, I can successfully build my Redroid 12 with MindTheGapps "sigma". Also, following this instruction to ignore one paragraph, I can successfully build my Redroid 13 with MindTheGapps "tau".
Now I try to build Redroid 14 (14.0.0_r21) with MindTheGapps "upsilon". Ooops! New problem occurs! It will prompt:

When we look at the Android.bp (several places, /arm, /arm64/, /common/, /x86/, /x86_64/) in the official MindTheGapps "upsilon" Gitlab repository, we can find such "preprocessed: true," lines.
Then, following comment by @jimtangshfx at #660, (1) I use the following commands to delete all the lines containing "preprocessed: true," :
sed -i '/preprocessed/d' ~/redroid/vendor/gapps/common/Android.bp
sed -i '/preprocessed/d' ~/redroid/vendor/gapps/arm/Android.bp
sed -i '/preprocessed/d' ~/redroid/vendor/gapps/arm64/Android.bp
sed -i '/preprocessed/d' ~/redroid/vendor/gapps/x86/Android.bp
sed -i '/preprocessed/d' ~/redroid/vendor/gapps/x86_64/Android.bp
(2)Echo the command:
echo "BUILD_BROKEN_ELF_PREBUILT_PRODUCT_COPY_FILES := true" >> device/redroid/redroid_x86_64/BoardConfig.mk
echo "BUILD_BROKEN_ELF_PREBUILT_PRODUCT_COPY_FILES := true" >> device/redroid/redroid_x86_64_only/BoardConfig.mk
echo "BUILD_BROKEN_ELF_PREBUILT_PRODUCT_COPY_FILES := true" >> device/redroid/redroid_arm64/BoardConfig.mk
echo "BUILD_BROKEN_ELF_PREBUILT_PRODUCT_COPY_FILES := true" >> device/redroid/redroid_arm64_only/BoardConfig.mk
However, when I start to build, the system will HANG OUT as this:
titusbiao@redroid-builder:/src$ m -j$(nproc)

What shall I do? Just wait? Or is there anything wrong?
Many thanks,
Here are some alternatives:
-
https://github.com/ayasa520/redroid-script Build your Redroid 14 release without any references to GApps (remove the
~/redroid/vendor/gappsfolder, themindthegapps.xmlmanifest and any references to it in the .mk files) and then use theredroid-scriptto install GApps into the finalized container (you must modify it a little to use your redroid14 container). -
https://github.com/opengapps/aosp_build Try OpenGApps instead of MindTheGApps https://github.com/remote-android/redroid-doc/issues/48#issuecomment-1076246868

Many thanks, and I'll have a try in solution 1.
For solution 2, OpenGApps only up to Android 11......and, we're talking about Android 14......So, except MindTheGapps, any ideas on NikGApps or BiTGApps?
