Please ensure that the watchman release has the required watchman-*-linux.zip asset attached before you mark this package out of date.

Upstream's CI often fails to build one or more assets and we have to skip releases.

I can reproduce it building with devtools. Investigating...

It works fine for me:

I called ldd on /usr/bin/watchman and got:

❯ ldd /usr/bin/watchman
        not a dynamic executable

It seems the executable is corrupted. The watchman from https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/watchman/ gives:

❯ ldd /usr/bin/watchman
        linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffca05b5000)

@heftig I added that flag, same error.

heftig commented on 2021-05-12 18:13 (UTC)

Does it work if you add --force-rpath to the patchelf --set-rpath invocation?

BenElgar commented on 2021-05-12 17:39 (UTC)

I encountered the same issue. Worked around it by replacing this package with https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/watchman/.

heftig commented on 2021-05-12 07:21 (UTC)

I can't reproduce that; it runs fine here.

I'm getting the following issue on two machines after the last update:

❯ /usr/bin/watchman --no-pretty get-sockname
/usr/bin/watchman: error while loading shared libraries: libglog.so.0: ELF load command address/offset not properly aligned
