Arch Linux User Repository

There's now a custom repo and binaries again. Though only for x86_64 currently.

Custom Repo

[pacman-static]
SigLevel = Required
Server = https://pkgbuild.com/~morganamilo/$repo/$arch

Pre compiled binaries

That's... plausible. I don't generally regenerate my build chroot, so I might have a makepkg.conf.pacnew that needs merging.

(And yes, bzip2 most likely ignores CPPFLAGS the same way it ignores CC and CFLAGS.)

I'll have to check tonight.

Maybe CFLAGS are different? when Googling fprintf_chk I saw mentions of *_chk versions of functions being ones that checks for stack overflows... The incompatibility seems to come from musl implementing this differently... as mentioned at: https://stackoverflow.com/a/55246403/1563584

so this made me remember I recently merged my makepkg.conf.pacnew which moved -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 from CPPFLAGS to CFLAGS. (I've got [testing] enabled.) Maybe that caused it to be actually used by gcc and that made the glibc-compiled library incompatible with musl-libc-compiled stuff?

Wow! That is a pretty bad oversight and you're entirely right that this cannot be allowed to build the way it is. I'll push an update soon.

I wonder, why it actually built successfully for me though, every single time I ever build it! :/ musl does try to reduce incompatibilities with glibc ABI, but without any guarantees... but we're both building for x86_64 so we "should" be getting the same results. Weird.

Oh, found the reason!

Line 1673 in my original makepkg log: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/QTqPyMXXxP/

bzip2's make was using gcc not musl-gcc to build libbz2.a! And mixing glibc and musl libc is obviously a really bad idea...

So it seems bz2's does not care what the CC env var is set to. So I added a sed into the PKGBUILD just before make libbz2.a: sed -i "s|CC=gcc|CC=${CC}|g" Makefile and that fixed the build!

So, since that checking for BZ2_bzDecompressInit in -lbz2... no is weird, I went and looked at src/libarchive-3.5.1/config.log and there was:

https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/jBq8WDB872/

some problem with fprintf and/or stdio headers? sounds like musl-libc chokes on something, or maybe configure should use musl's stdio.h, instead of the one from glibc?

After all:

% LANG= pacman -Qo /usr/include/bits/stdio2.h
/usr/include/bits/stdio2.h is owned by glibc 2.33-4

on the other hand, there is also:

% objdump -t src/temp/usr/lib/libbz2.a | grep BZ2_bzDec
0000000000000d90 g     F .text  0000000000000104 BZ2_bzDecompressInit
0000000000000ee0 g     F .text  0000000000000f55 BZ2_bzDecompress
0000000000001e40 g     F .text  000000000000009d BZ2_bzDecompressEnd

so no idea why libarchive's configure thinks libbz2 is missing that symbol... Maybe it picks up a different/wrong libbz2 ? The systems? But even that has those decompress symbols:

% objdump -T /usr/lib/libbz2.so | grep BZ2_bzDec
000000000000bf30 g    DF .text  0000000000000104  Base        BZ2_bzDecompressInit
000000000000c080 g    DF .text  0000000000000f6f  Base        BZ2_bzDecompress
000000000000cff0 g    DF .text  0000000000000095  Base        BZ2_bzDecompressEnd

That's weird. And look at the libarchive configure output:

checking bzlib.h usability... yes
checking bzlib.h presence... yes
checking for bzlib.h... yes
checking for BZ2_bzDecompressInit in -lbz2... no

I'm getting linker errors in regarding libarchive and bzip2 with 5.2.2-4. But both didn't change since -3, correct? So I've got no idea what caused the problem... I did start with a clean checkout (no src/ or pkg/) and tried both makepkg and makechrootpkg... same errors.

I did notice there's no -lbz2 in the linker command, but I saw no obvious errors in ./configure output...

Does this package support aur helpers? Or it must be used under devtools? I tried using yay -Syu pacman-static and it fails when building libgpg:

For building, Andrew's key is throwing "keyserver receive failed: General error" with HKPS's keyserver. I had to use "hkp://p80.pool.sks-keyservers.net:80" to import it.
