Failed compilation on ubuntu with python 2.7 configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables

[VineethRaghavan]

Hi,

I tried compiling a basic hello world app. But I got the following error

checking for --with-universal-archs... 32-bit
checking MACHDEP... linux4
checking EXTRAPLATDIR... 
checking machine type as reported by uname -m... x86_64
checking for --without-gcc... no
checking for arm-eabi-gcc... /usr/bin/ccache arm-linux-androideabi-gcc -DANDROID -mandroid -fomit-frame-pointer --sysroot /home/kivy/.buildozer/android/platform/android-ndk-r9c/platforms/android-19/arch-arm
checking whether the C compiler works... no
configure: error: in `/home/kivy/Desktop/.buildozer/android/platform/build/build/other_builds/python2/armeabi-v7a/python2':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details

Here is the config.log file:

This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

It was created by python configure 2.7, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.68.  Invocation command line was

  $ ./configure --host=arm-eabi --build=x86_64-linux-gnu --prefix=/home/kivy/Desktop/.buildozer/android/platform/build/build/other_builds/python2/armeabi-v7a/python2/python-install --enable-shared --disable-toolbox-glue --disable-framework

I tried googling and found solutions which suggested upgrading cython or gcc. I tried them all, but none of them worked.

I'd appreciate any help that you may offer.
Thanks!

@VineethRaghavan first of all install a c compiler like gcc in your os and then run "sudo rm -r .buildozer" and then compile again(it worked for me)

[VineethRaghavan]

Thanks! it worked for me too!
