unable to build SDK on Fedora 40 #287

Open beroset opened 1 month ago

beroset commented 1 month ago

Describe the bug I have recently updated my computers from Fedora 39 to Fedora 40 and have found that I can no longer build the SDK.

To reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Follow the steps to build the SDK as described here
  2. Execute bitbake -k meta-toolchain-qt5 (the -k to keep going after the first error)
  3. Observe that libffi, pseudo and cracklib fail to build

Expected behavior I expected that the SDK would be built in its entirety without errors.

Detailed error message The tail end of the build attempt as described above looks like this:

Summary: 3 tasks failed:
  virtual:native:/home/beroset/tools/AsteroidOS/asteroid/src/oe-core/meta/recipes-support/libffi/libffi_3.4.4.bb:do_compile
  virtual:native:/home/beroset/tools/AsteroidOS/asteroid/src/oe-core/meta/recipes-devtools/pseudo/pseudo_git.bb:do_compile
  virtual:native:/home/beroset/tools/AsteroidOS/asteroid/src/oe-core/meta/recipes-extended/cracklib/cracklib_2.9.11.bb:do_compile
Summary: There were 6 ERROR messages, returning a non-zero exit code.

Version: This uses the latest version, as of 25 May 2024, which is commit 53ad9fe16548492895d9b50239cb1f7ebffd4d38 of https://github.com/AsteroidOS/asteroid.git

Additional context I don't believe this problem occurred with Fedora 39, but I'm not sure how long it's been since I deleted the entire build directory and started from scratch to build the toolchain. One change is that the (native) version of gcc is now gcc (GCC) 14.1.1 20240507 (Red Hat 14.1.1-1) which might be more picky about compiling. Another change is that wget is now GNU Wget2 2.1.0 and no longer supports the --passive-ftp flag.

For what it's worth this is likely to be fixed when we move to scarthgap (https://github.com/AsteroidOS/asteroid/issues/285).

In my case moving to that and manually applying https://github.com/openembedded/openembedded-core/commit/914128f6bd988cde278e087fb9457a0c70c7e5ec solved build issues. But I'm testing on an updated Arch (also with GCC 14).

I wrote an upstream patch which is now applied to cracklib. (See this issue.) The next step is to submit a patch to yocto.
