[akirapink]

I'm probably being a bad person just posting terminal logs but I've just been following the aseprite build guide and I don't know what I fucked up, sorry about this.

did you find a solution?

[akirapink]

nope, srry!

[ezgibas]

go into /home/akira/deps/skia/gn, and openis_clang.py, go to line 14 and add parantheses. That should get rid of at least one problem, as for the ninja: error: loading 'build.ninja': No such file or directory problem, I'm having the same one :/
