Dear all:

I can not build XBMC for android successfully,but I completely follow these instructions
https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master...ME.android
the error log is as below:
failed to find the necessary bits to build these modules:
_bsddb _curses _curses_panel
_tkinter bsddb185 bz2
dbm dl gdbm

imageop linuxaudiodev ossaudiodev
readline sunaudiodev
To find the necessary bits, look in setup.py in detect_modules() for the module's name.

Any help would be much appreciated

Which SDK, which NDK, which toolchain? (gcc version)

this is NDK:android-ndk-r8-crystax-1-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2

use the one from the README.android. NDK r9 vanilla with the GCC 4.8 toolchain ...
