Description of the bug:

sudo apt install bazel-bootstrap

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang

cd carbon-lang

~/carbon-lang$ bazel run //explorer -- ./explorer/testdata/print/format_only.carbon

What version of Bazel do you have? (bazel --version or bazel info should show)

My guess is that it is a (quite) old system installed Bazel. I suspect you'll want to use Bazelisk: https://bazel.build/install/bazelisk

We should probably update our docs to make this more clear...

The same occurred for me on ubuntu 22.04 LTS. I had to download bazel 7.1.2 to get it to work because ubuntu ships with bazel 3.5.X

i installed bazelisk, but now get this error:

sudo apt install libstdc++-12-dev fixes the previous error

next error is:

All of these seem likely to be missing packages in the setup suggested here: https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/blob/trunk/docs/project/contribution_tools.md#debian-or-ubuntu

Can you confirm you've done all of those steps?

panjea commented 5 months ago

I can confirm build works using bazelisk and this apt-get:

sudo apt-get install libc++abi-dev clang gh lld pipx libc++-dev

It sure would make life easier for those of us using Ubuntu if Google had better support for bazel on Debian or Ubuntu, downloading bazelisk and installing it felt like a hack.

chandlerc commented 5 months ago

Glad that got you working!

FWIW, we're discussing whether we can do something to avoid the difficulty of installing bazelisk. =/
