Please add options=(!lto) to the PKGBUILD.

Without it mesa-git breaks at building when using directx-headers-git .

Thanks for the fast response .

The change of CXXFLAGS was a workaround that did fix the problem, but not the cause .

The 2nd green box in https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mesa-git#comment-631336 shows how I felt about arch-meson 5 years ago . (the buildtype was corrected , but the lto setting wasn't).

I've filed https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/78286 to hopefully remove the cause .

Anyway, I fixed it.

SovietReimu1228 commented on 2023-04-22 14:26 (UTC)

I wrote PKGBUILD based on the original. Do you really need that?

Lone_Wolf commented on 2023-04-22 13:54 (UTC)

problem cause for mesa failing to build found. It appears the arch-meson script enables lto builds and doesn't honor the !lto setting in options() .

@SovietReimu1228 : please replace the arch-meson upto ninja lines in build() with these lines :

    meson setup DirectX-Headers build \
       --prefix /usr \
       --libexecdir lib \
       --sbindir bin \
       --buildtype plain \
       --auto-features enabled \
       --wrap-mode nodownload \
       -D b_lto=false \
       -D b_pie=true \
       -D build-test=false

  meson configure --no-pager build

(the meson configure line is present so users get to see which build settings are used by meson)

Was that during the creation of the debug part of building ?

If yes, that is a very minor issue that has a small effect on crashlogs or when this apploication is run through a debugger like gdb .

adding debug symbols in a seperate package is now default on archlinux . If you don't like the messages and don't need a debug package, add !debug to the options= array .

I needed to use !strip in the options array because ld didn't like the stripped version during mesa compilation. These messages occured when compiling this package:

  -> Stripping unneeded symbols from binaries and libraries...
strip: ./usr/lib/stcGJi9c/src_d3dx12_property_format_table.cpp.o: plugin needed to handle lto object
strip: ./usr/lib/st5YwMPT/src_d3dx12_property_format_table.cpp.o: plugin needed to handle lto object
strip: ./usr/lib/stFDAyu4/src_dxguids.cpp.o: plugin needed to handle lto object
strip: ./usr/lib/stxA79Iu/src_dxguids.cpp.o: plugin needed to handle lto object

I'm not sure if anything needs to be done, just pointing it out.

The package needs git as a make dependency

SovietReimu1228 commented on 2023-04-20 09:43 (UTC)

Thank you for pointing out my mistake!
