Hi. My build fails with the following message:

@HurricanePootis T'sup, try gpg --recv-key 6C35B99309B5FA62

Hello, the pgp check fails

angelodalzotto commented on 2023-01-25 11:23 (UTC)

To use stdio.h (and other libraries) you may compile a standard C library, such as newlib.

dhims commented on 2023-01-25 07:19 (UTC)

After installation of package I am not able to build c code as it cannot find stdio.h. Any idea how to fix it? "fatal error: stdio.h: No such file or directory"

mthfrr commented on 2021-12-26 10:49 (UTC)

I had a similar problem as philpirj. The -Werror=format-security flag came from the config of makepkg (/etc/makepkg.conf).

I removed it and it works !

If someone cares, the CFLAGS set by default in makepkg.conf are:

CFLAGS="-march=x86-64 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe -fno-plt -fexceptions \
    -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -Wformat -Werror=format-security \
    -fstack-clash-protection -fcf-protection"

This is a fresh arch install from the 2021.12 iso.

I have been able to reproduce the issue for the last few months.

What packages & configuration might influence the build to cause this?

angelodalzotto commented on 2021-07-12 10:55 (UTC)

I can't reproduce the build error as its building just fine for me without applying any patches.

About the signature, you may import the key:

gpg --recv-keys 6C35B99309B5FA62

Alright, there's https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/blob/packages/gcc/trunk/gcc11-Wno-format-security.patch in the core gcc package.

It should be applied as well to cross-mips-elf-gcc like this (see https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/blob/c0c9a945c11d1868af6d4dbcef985319ee153ea3/trunk/PKGBUILD#L31):

source=(https://sourceware.org/pub/gcc/releases/gcc-${pkgver}/gcc-${pkgver}.tar.xz{,.sig}
        gcc11-Wno-format-security.patch
)

Also, add:

  # configure.ac: When adding -Wno-format, also add -Wno-format-security
  patch -Np0 < "$srcdir/gcc11-Wno-format-security.patch"

to prepare().

It is, however, still insufficient, as the error is detected in libcpp, while we've patched the root configure.ac.

What helps is the removal of:

enable_werror_always

from src/gcc-11.1.0/libcpp/configure. However, I don't really understand what from src/gcc-11.1.0/libcpp/configure.ac adds it, and can't create an includable patch.

After removing this nasty option, I could manually build GCC. Next:

src/gcc-11.1.0 $ make DESTDIR=/home/pirj/source/tmp/cross-mips-elf-gcc/pkg install-gcc
$ cd ../..
$ makepkg --repackage

failed with:

find: ‘/home/pirj/source/tmp/cross-mips-elf-gcc/pkg/cross-mips-elf-gcc/usr/bin/’: No such file or directory

as it creates usr/local/bin, not usr/bin:

$ ls pkg/cross-mips-elf-gcc/usr/local/
bin/      include/  lib/      libexec/  share/
