Hi Terry - This isn't likely related to #3874 - in that one once the correct package is installed from the right repo on RHEL8 all works as expected. If there is a difference between mconfig
finding things and make
not then it might be something in your environment.
Have you set any *_PATH
variables in your environment - or do you have anything like a conda
environment loaded?
Output of env | grep PATH
would be useful here, thanks.
Thanks @dctrud
I use Python virtual envs and conda (occasionally) but this happens when I don't have them activated. I also normally use fish, but it also happens in bash (as in the following):
$ env | grep PATH
MANDATORY_PATH=/usr/share/gconf/pop.mandatory.path
WINDOWPATH=2
DEFAULTS_PATH=/usr/share/gconf/pop.default.path
PATH=/home/terry/miniconda3/condabin:.:/home/terry/bin:/home/terry/bin/x86_64:/opt/EMBOSS/bin:/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/opt/python/libexec/bin:/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin:/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/sbin:/home/terry/miniconda3/bin:/usr/local/go/bin:/home/terry/dark-matter/hbv/bin:/home/terry/dark-matter/dark-matter/bin:/home/terry/charite/voldemort/bin:/home/terry/charite/diagnostics/bih-pipeline/bin:/home/terry/charite/diagnostics/csd3-pipeline/bin:/home/terry/charite/2019-nCoV-sequences/bin:/home/terry/dark-matter/midtools/bin:/opt/gatk:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/acl80:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/home/terry/s/net/bwa:/home/terry/s/net/bowtie2:/opt/SPAdes/bin:/home/terry/.cargo/bin:/home/terry/s/net/edirect/edirect:/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/opt/fzf/bin

Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libseccomp.pc'

Hi @terrycojones - your PATH
here is quite complex. Can you see what you get when you do a
dave@piran~> which pkg-config
/bin/pkg-config
You'll need to have the distribution one come up /bin
or /usr/bin
- if you get something else it's coming from something conda or linuxbrew related in your PATH (they can provide their own pkg-config
for their provided libraries) and that's not where you have libseccomp installed. The make
process will need to see the distro pkg-config
so you'd want a PATH
that doesn't include anywhere else that pkg-config
is being provided.
@dctrud Aha.... thank you! I got those things out of my PATH, then uninstalled the manually installed libseccomp (mentioned above) and the build runs cleanly.
Closing this - thanks a lot for the help!
I am trying to install singularity following the instructions at https://sylabs.io/guides/3.5/user-guide/quick_start.html#compile-the-singularity-source-code having downloaded and extracted the 3.5.3 tarball running on Ubuntu 19.10.
The
mconfig
step runs fine and includes "checking: libseccomp+headers... yes" in its output.The
make
inbuilddir
gives the following error, though:Suprisingly, I don't find an easy solution to this online. I already have
libseccomp2
,libseccomp-dev
andseccomp
all installed viaapt get
and all with up-to-date versions:When I install
seccomp
manually, from a git clone following https://github.com/seccomp/libseccomp I end up with the same error as above.Maybe related to #3874 ?
Thanks!
