Top Big Sur bottling issues #65000

Closed fxcoudert closed 3 years ago

fxcoudert commented 4 years ago

We already have a massive issue that's systematically tracking and collating all Big Sur bottling failures: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues/64785 In this issue, I want to track a prioritised list of failures among our top-downloaded formulas, so we track progress and participation.

This top post will be edited over time to remain accurate. Discussion and offers of help can go below.

List of formulas missing a Big Sur bottle (and number of montly installs):

Regarding php@7.2, this is mainly an Xcode 12 compatibility problem. @SMillerDev has worked on this, see #61828. Given that php 7.2 will be EOL in less than two weeks, I wonder if it's worth patching the package, though.

SMillerDev commented 4 years ago

Just remove it already IYAM.

sharris40 commented 4 years ago

vapoursynth needs somebody to look into a licensing problem before the relevant pull request (https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/59828) can proceed. It’s been stale for almost a month. I can make an interim pull request that just fixes the audit failures and doesn’t update the package.

  • exa: missing pandoc

exa only needs pandoc for building head, so I think this can be bottled as is. Incidentally, building head will also install the exact same exa binary as the stable version, so I'm not really sure what head is doing there. I'll work on the formula so it actually installs a development version when it's been bottled.

A fix for vault's test is in #65037.

Regarding tarantool. The build fails with the following error: > -- Performing Test CURL_SUPPORTS_SSL > -- Performing Test CURL_SUPPORTS_SSL - Failed > CMake Error at cmake/FindCURL.cmake:130 (message): > Curl was built without SSL support Is it the build environment problem or something on our side?
jonchang commented 4 years ago

It might need to depend on curl-openssl?

carlocab commented 4 years ago

I've nailed down the problem with bottling odin: https://github.com/odin-lang/Odin/issues/792

This should be fixed in a future version, but in the meantime, I'm trying to see if upstream will provide a patch.

Moisan commented 3 years ago

distcc HEAD builds fine with an up to date libiberty resource. Based on https://github.com/distcc/distcc/issues/401, upstream seems to be about to tag a new release so we should be able to bump it soon.

jonchang commented 3 years ago

I've got pypy seeming to build locally and have opened https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/65854 to see if it'll bottle.

mitchblank commented 3 years ago

I opened a PR that should fix cvs: #65954

Over the last couple days I took a look through some of the formula in @jonchang's "Big list" above... either packages I have some past familiarity with or things that just looked interesting:

mitchblank commented 3 years ago

A word of caution about perl-based formula -- I've been having a hell of a time with them.

First there is the issue where MakeMaker seems to have changed how it lays out the directory by default. I've seen that a couple times already, and have what I think is a workaround even though I don't understand the underlying problem (e.g. #66367 and #66370)

Today I took what I thought would be a quick look at asciiquarium (a very important formula, I know...) After literally hours of digging through the perl module make system trying to figure out why its curses bindings aren't building correctly I came across Perl-Toolchain-Gang/ExtUtils-MakeMaker#381 -- basically Apple's own /usr/bin/perl is broken for detecting external libs via MakeMaker so any perl library using that framework to build itself is likely going to have problems.

At the root, this is the same type of issue as things like #66304 where the build scripts assume they can probe for the *.dylib files but they now only exist to dlopen()'s world.

Basically, if you see a broken formula that relies on MakeMaker be afraid.

mitchblank commented 3 years ago

Hit a few more.

mitchblank commented 3 years ago

I really don't understand what makes BrewTestBot unhappy. I just looked at those three logs.zip and don't have any idea why they "failed"

carlocab commented 3 years ago

@mitchblank try looking at the logs in the CI interface (the raw logs may be easier to search). I've found that sometimes useful information shows up there which don't make it to the log archives.

mitchblank commented 3 years ago

BTW abcde (on the top list) should be OK now that its dependency cdrtools is fixed. I just build/tested it locally.

mitchblank commented 3 years ago

@mitchblank try looking at the logs in the CI interface (the raw logs may be easier to search). I've found that sometimes useful information shows up there which don't make it to the log archives.

Ah OK. Yeah that is somewhat more informative.

fxcoudert commented 3 years ago

@mitchblank disabling tests under CI is a no, always. The tests are meant to be run on CI in most cases, that's how we test that we don't break things.

upx uses weird techniques for binary compression, and they break at every new macOS version (because they do dirty tricks with system-reserved features)

mitchblank commented 3 years ago

OK, upx seems legitimately broken. brew test fails manually on it and:

$ cp /usr/local/bin/upx .
$ chmod +w upx
$ upx -1 ./upx
[...]
$ ./upx -V
[1]    26947 killed     ./upx -V

Issue already open upstream https://github.com/upx/upx/issues/424

carlocab commented 3 years ago

Yes, I think the tests really are there for CI more than anything else, especially now that (I believe) the vast majority (or, if not, plurality) of PRs are bump-formula-prs, which no longer require the checklist. (Not to mention that the checklists are easy to ignore and fill up by mistake.)

xhyve apparently has a branch with Big Sur fixes: https://github.com/machyve/xhyve/issues/207 ...although arm64 will still have more work to do: https://github.com/machyve/xhyve/issues/206

mitchblank commented 3 years ago

I was going to look at some of the top issues but first I thought I should go through and see which open ones have already-known or investigated stuff. This is an edited copy of @fxcoudert's list (with a few lines removed where Big Sur bottles have recently appeared)

Is there somewhere better (wiki-like?) where we could host such a list so people could add their own per-package comments?

Took a swing at net-snmp since it's near the top of the list: #66832

Might let us also unblock sane-backends and collectd which are fairly high up as well

gnu-prolog fix: #66833

mitchblank commented 3 years ago

Took a quick look at "mpd" -- built OK but brew test is broken. Looks like free_port didn't do what was expected:

==> Testing mpd
exception: Failed to bind to '127.0.0.1:55363'; Failed to bind socket: Address already in use

sound familiar to anyone?

bmon fix: #66847

carlocab commented 3 years ago

Tried a dirty hack (which didn't work) to fix neko here: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/66819

I think the problem is that cmake can't find system libiconv on Big Sur for some reason. I think this has to do with the disappearance of system libraries from the file system in Big Sur, but it seems CMake was supposed to have already fixed that? So not really sure what the deal is.

mitchblank commented 3 years ago

Yeah I was looking at neko too... there are at least 3 or 4 different problems I found. Still sort of poking at it, but it's a tricky one.

carlocab commented 3 years ago

So I tried adding depends_on "libiconv" if MacOS.version >= :big_sur, which fixed the problem of not being able to find libiconv.

Then some other error popped up, but this happened during a ninja run. Ninja runs a lot of things in parallel, so now it's become really difficult to figure out where exactly the error came up.

Logs here in case anyone wants to have a look: neko-log.tar.gz and https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/runs/1544327700

...obviously those inreplace need to be turned into real upstream patches; I've just used them as a temporary hack.

There are still warnings about MSG_NOSIGNAL that look like a bug to me, too.

No idea if those ui changes really work either, but it does compile... :shrug:

@mitchblank did you see if haxe and hashlink will build with your hacked fix of neko?

carlocab commented 3 years ago

haxe and hashlink have Big Sur bottles here: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/66819

However, these seem to depend on a neko Catalina bottle, so not sure if that counts.

If that's a problem, it might be worth leaving a note in the neko formula that haxe and hashlink need to be rebottled when neko gets a Big Sur bottle?

mitchblank commented 3 years ago

Sorry, was busy the last couple days with Real Life. I opened PRs on neko for some of the fixes and made a new homebrew PR: #66975

This also fixes the libiconv thing by convincing mariadb-connector to link against the system iconv/libz rather than adding a dependency

mitchblank commented 3 years ago

Just tested both with #66975 -- build and test of each worked

cataclysm bottled here. Thanks go to @gromgit for fixing it.

carlocab commented 3 years ago

I've been able to build and test Agda locally. PR here: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/67014

Leont commented 3 years ago

First there is the issue where MakeMaker seems to have changed how it lays out the directory by default. I've seen that a couple times already, and have what I think is a workaround even though I don't understand the underlying problem (e.g. #66367 and #66370)

MakeMaker hasn't changed, but probably Apple's perl config has. Can you give the the output of perl -V:siteprefixexp -V:installsitelib on both MacOS 10.15 and on MacOS 11?

Today I took what I thought would be a quick look at asciiquarium (a very important formula, I know...) After literally hours of digging through the perl module make system trying to figure out why its curses bindings aren't building correctly I came across Perl-Toolchain-Gang/ExtUtils-MakeMaker#381 -- basically Apple's own /usr/bin/perl is broken for detecting external libs via MakeMaker so any perl library using that framework to build itself is likely going to have problems.

At the root, this is the same type of issue as things like #66304 where the build scripts assume they can probe for the *.dylib files but they now only exist to dlopen()'s world.

I think I have a solution for that, I hope we can release that in the coming days. That does require upgrading MakeMaker as a first step.

carlocab commented 3 years ago

macOS 11

Homebrew perl:

❯ /usr/local/bin/perl -V:siteprefixexp -V:installsitelib
siteprefixexp='/usr/local/Cellar/perl/5.32.0';
installsitelib='/usr/local/Cellar/perl/5.32.0/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.32.0';

system perl:

❯ /usr/bin/perl -V:siteprefixexp -V:installsitelib
siteprefixexp='/usr';
installsitelib='/Library/Perl/5.28';
mitchblank commented 3 years ago

Yeah, it looks like siteprefixexp is what changed. Here is a 10.15 system perl:

% /usr/bin/perl -V:siteprefixexp -V:installsitelib
siteprefixexp='/usr/local';
installsitelib='/Library/Perl/5.18';

I've been meaning to get back to the perl issues soon; been distracted by other things. I'm pretty sure the bulk of the problems will be fixed if we just change to using INSTALL_BASE consistently. Really our needs are pretty simple (just install the same way you normally would except into .../Cellar/pkg/version instead of /usr or /usr/local. For a "normal" autoconf package that just means repointing --prefix but for MakeMaker it seems INSTALL_BASE is the closer analog

mitchblank commented 3 years ago

That does require upgrading MakeMaker as a first step.

Most of these perl packages currently work with the system perl, so that is potentially tricky. One option would be to start requiring that they be built against homebrew perl5 instead, although that does increase the baggage required for some otherwise-tiny packages.

Based on what I've seen so far we can probably work around most of the issues with the system perl, but we'll see if we hit any real roadblocks.

carlocab commented 3 years ago

If it's just a build dependency then it should be fine, I think. Though we should still avoid adding it unnecessarily. Are there any circumstances where using Homebrew perl to build could turn it into a runtime dependency?

mitchblank commented 3 years ago

Pretty sure it would be a runtime dependency in that case, since the perl modules in resources would end up compiled against that copy of perl5.
