Before install Waydroid, make sure that your kernel supports binder and ashmem module (currently only linux-zen does)

Keep in mind that Waydroid only works with Wayland compositors. It also does not work yet with proprietary NVIDIA driver.

After install waydroid and waydroid-image, run this command to initialize the container:

# waydroid init

Then the container can be started via waydroid-container.service. The official project group/channel can be found on:

Adding ibt=off to the vanilla kernel lowers security of your system. You have to switch to linux-zen which has dynamic support of IBT

I'm having the same issue as @sokol99.

I keep get this error while building and am stuck:

It's something in your installed packages, then. I was able to build libglibutil-1.0.76-1 -> libgbinder-1.1.38-1 -> python-gbinder-1.1.2-1 -> waydroid-1.4.2-1 using devtools and a custom repo to hold each successive dependency.

I'm also having this issue as of April 18th, 2024.

The comment on page 5 about binderfs should probably be pinned too. It's also linked to externally, but doesn't work as a link because it keeps moving pages back.

Edit: My bad, it's just that the Waydroid scripts try to modprobe binder_linux to detect if it's "loaded" rather than simply checking if the binder-control node exists already. My current kernel only offers the user facing options to either not build binder support, or compile it in, not as a module.

anyone have any idea?

python-gbinder 1.1.2 should now support building using cython3.

agowa commented on 2023-08-06 11:11 (UTC) (edited on 2023-08-06 11:19 (UTC) by agowa)

Does anyone have a "fix" for the python-gbinder dependency to work with the latest cython installed? Currently, python-gbinder has a hard dependency on cpython0, and cython0 conflicts with cython.

Edit: Answering myself, build it via makechrootpkg.
