Error Creating Distribution on OS X

[joshelson]

Have this reproducible error on attempting to create a distribution. Everything up to this point works perfectly, but create-dist fails with this error sequence:

$ ./script/create-dist -t x64
ninja: Entering directory `/Users/josh/dev/joshelson/libchromiumcontent/dist/main'

subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['strip', '-x', '-S', '/Users/josh/dev/joshelson/libchromiumcontent/dist/main/native_mksnapshot/libffmpeg.dylib']' returned non-zero exit status 1

The dynlib is properly in the ffmpeg filder, but is NOT in native_mksnapshot. Any easy workaround for this one?

In script/create-dist file, change COMPONENTS = ['static_library', 'shared_library', 'native_mksnapshot'] to COMPONENTS = ['static_library', 'shared_library'], then continue to build.

Hey there,

It's been a long time coming but the libchromiumcontent repository is being archived as it is no longer used in the Electron build system (🎉 this is a good thing).

If your issue is still relevant to Electron in it's current build system (please verify first) then you should probably raise a similar issue on electron/electron.

Thanks 😄
