tools build fails when ftp.gnu.org is down #33

Closed jamesstout closed 6 years ago

jamesstout commented 6 years ago

ftp.gnu.org is currently down so a clean build of tools fails:

$ PRINT_DEBUG=y make
  CLONE      autoconf
if [ ! -f "autoconf-"2.69".tar.gz" ]; then curl -OL http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/autoconf/autoconf-"2.69".tar.gz; fi

make[2]: *** [autoconf_clone] Error 7
make[1]: *** [clone] Error 1
make: *** [autoconf_all] Error 2

A bit of network analysis here. Site is down and also maybe one of the name servers.

Is there any downside to changing the hostname to the generic GNU mirror address as suggested here? Or utilising an env var to set the hostname for the 9 affected URLs?

$ ack --nobreak ftp.gnu.org tools/*/Makefile
tools/autoconf/Makefile:9:  if [ ! -f "autoconf-$(AUTOCONF_VERSION).tar.gz" ]; then curl -OL http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/autoconf/autoconf-$(AUTOCONF_VERSION).tar.gz; fi
tools/automake/Makefile:9:  if [ ! -f "automake-$(AUTOMAKE_VERSION).tar.gz" ]; then curl -OL http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake/automake-$(AUTOMAKE_VERSION).tar.gz; fi;
tools/coreutils/Makefile:9: if [ ! -f "coreutils-$(COREUTILS_VERSION).tar.xz" ]; then curl -OL https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/coreutils/coreutils-$(COREUTILS_VERSION).tar.xz; fi;
tools/gmp/Makefile:9:   if [ ! -f "gmp-$(GMP_VERSION).tar.gz" ]; then curl -OL http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gmp/gmp-$(GMP_VERSION).tar.bz2; fi;

Thanks

Hi @jamesstout, thank you for pointing out the correct way to do it. I already updated the edge branch and attached the patch ftpgnu-master.diff.txt for the master branch for the time being.

Please rename the attached file to ftpgnu-master.diff and patch zcash-apple like below, I'll fetch those changes from edge branch asap

# copy ftpgnu-master.diff.txt in zcash-apple root dir
$ mv ftpgnu-master.diff.txt ftpgnu-master.diff
$ patch -d tools/ -p2 < ftpgnu-master.diff
