Arch Linux User Repository

so I have found a way to avoid the libfmt issues, because I don't see the point in fixing them (as they're fixed in v18, which will be releasing the next few months).

However, I've now stumbled into a cython v3.0.0 mess around fptr typedefs that I'm unscrewing.

think I have a fix for this

Thanks, I'll start a rebuild

EDIT: actually it seems v10 finally removed -DFMT_DEPRECATED_OSTREAM, which makes things harder. There is unfortunately no single fix to this, (though it is fixed in v18, which is releasing soon) so I'll have to collect and backport patches

Just as information:

ceph-authtool and probably some other tools are broken because Arch updated to fmt-10.0.0-1 on 2023-07-20:

# ceph-authtool --create-keyring /tmp/ceph.mon.keyring --gen-key -n mon. --cap mon 'allow *'
ceph-authtool: error while loading shared libraries: libfmt.so.9: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

# pacman -F libfmt.so
extra/fmt 10.0.0-1 [installed]
    usr/lib/libfmt.so
# pacman -F libfmt.so.9
(no output)

Creating a symlink /usr/lib/libfmt.so.9 -> /usr/lib/libfmt.so.10.0.0 does not help.

Thought it might be a yay issue bit it doesn't look like it. I switched to paru and tried to install ceph-bin but getting the following:

paru -S ceph-bin
:: Resolving dependencies...
:: Calculating conflicts...
:: Calculating inner conflicts...

:: Conflicts found:
    ceph-libs: ceph-libs-bin (ceph-libs)  ceph-libs-bin

:: Conflicting packages will have to be confirmed manually

Aur (2) ceph-17.2.6-2 (ceph-libs)  ceph-bin-17.2.6-2

So ceph-bin needs ceph-libs-bin which needs ceph-libs which needs ceph. If I proceed it tries to build ceph from source similar to yay.

Am I not doing something right?

Edit ** Just cloned the repository and built manually without aur helper -- things installed as expected. I'm not sure what's really up with the AUR helpers. Sorry for wasting bandwidth.

I'm looking for feedback on RFC: Split packages for Ceph

I'd prefer it under the issue itself, but if you don't have a Github account, post it here and I'll cross post it.

Thanks in advance!

@pbazaah Thanks for the investigation, I didn't catch the yay bug report. I will follow that.

Looking into it, this might be a yay specific issue:

https://github.com/Jguer/yay/issues/2157

Which explains why I haven't seen it, none of my tests run against yay 12 yet

@snack

I also use yay, and simply do not experience the issues you describe.

Unless you can either point out an issue in the PKGBUILD/SRCINFO, or provide a minimal reproducible case there's not much I can do.

@pbazaah I'm still getting troubles when trying to update ceph-bin and cehp-bin-libs using yay; if I'm correct you use yay too, so I'd like to hear your opinion.

I have only -bin packages, still yay wants update wants to build a non-bin package (2 aur/ceph-libs, in this case). This smells as a wrong dependency, but I can't find any in your PKGBUILDs. Nevertheless this is a major annoyance on each update, especially for new users, so I wonder if here is anything that can be done to fix it (and also if anyone else experience the same behavior).
