mix deps.compile esqlite fails while linking esqlite3_nif.so on ARM

[duck57]

Specifically, it's a Raspberry Pi 4 where this is failing.

The exact error message is:

** (Mix) Could not compile dependency :esqlite, "/home/pi/.mix/rebar3 bare compile --paths="/home/pi/Documents/programming stubs/friends/_build/dev/lib/*/ebin"" command failed. You can recompile this dependency with "mix deps.compile esqlite", update it with "mix deps.update esqlite" or clean it with "mix deps.clean esqlite"

What can I do to fix this and make it compile?

Sorry, I don't have a clue. I'm not a mix user myself.

@duck57 this was an issue with the rebar plugin and nerves. I have a fix for it. I'll push it up and pull request this repo on the next few days. Sorry about this.

@ConnorRigby I'm experiencing the same issue. Did you get a chance to work on the PR for this? Or have any tips for resolving it?

@duck57 Were you able to workaround the issue?

[ConnorRigby]

Really sorry about this. I haven't had time to update the rebar plugin. For a temporary workaround, you can try this:

• add this Makefile to your project:
  https://github.com/FarmBot/farmbot_os/blob/13ae06cf173ec5802ffebedc7dfb7aac9cd94b1b/farmbot_os/Makefile
• and then make these changes to your mixfile:
  https://github.com/FarmBot/farmbot_os/blob/13ae06cf173ec5802ffebedc7dfb7aac9cd94b1b/farmbot_os/mix.exs#L24

We are encountering a problem that is probably related if not identical. Cross-compiling on an x86-64 system for ARM and then moving the files (or rather the final mix release) seems to work, but compiling the source directly on an ARM device fails.

Could this be related to: #64?

Bumbed rebar3 to version 3.14.1
