Project build fails - missing partitions-4MB-tinyuf2.csv

[davexre]

Just trying this project for the first time (hoping to overcome an issue I was seeing with an Adafruit ESP32-S3 Reverse TFT board). I switched my platformio.ini file to use the current stable release of this project, and see this when I go to build:

Compiling .pio/build/default/FrameworkArduinoVariant/variant.cpp.o
Compiling .pio/build/default/src/main.cpp.o
*** [.pio/build/default/partitions.bin] Source `partitions-4MB-tinyuf2.csv' not found, needed by target `.pio/build/default/partitions.bin'.
====================================================================================== [FAILED] Took 2.93 seconds ======================================================================================

Missing dependency, maybe?

Post the complete platformio.ini to help.
I don't understand why using tinyuf2 in general. Eats up flash space...

platformio.ini is:

; PlatformIO Project Configuration File
;
;   Build options: build flags, source filter
;   Upload options: custom upload port, speed and extra flags
;   Library options: dependencies, extra library storages
;   Advanced options: extra scripting
;
; Please visit documentation for the other options and examples

Looks like the partition file is being referenced from here:

platform-espressif32/boards/adafruit_feather_esp32s3_reversetft.json

Line 5 in 77b00e4

"partitions": "partitions-4MB-tinyuf2.csv",

Maybe try a workaround and force set a partition file in your platform.io file:

board_build.partitions = partitions-4MB-tinyuf2.csv

and this file at the project root: partitions-4MB-tinyuf2.csv with this content:

# ESP-IDF Partition Table
# Name,   Type, SubType, Offset,  Size, Flags
# bootloader.bin,,          0x1000, 32K
# partition table,          0x8000, 4K

nvs,      data, nvs,      0x9000,  20K,
otadata,  data, ota,      0xe000,  8K,
ota_0,    0,    ota_0,   0x10000,  1408K,

(content to be updated based on your needs)

Fixed in branch develop fd59ead One of the many bullshit boards manifests provided and merged upstream.
Adafruit is horrible leader in providing boards with same name and different hardware specs.
