BUILD_FAILED for glm package

[boddicheg]

Hey guys. Didn't found issues related to my problem so decided create a new one.

OS:

Distributor ID: Debian
Description:    Debian GNU/Linux testing (buster)
Release:    testing
Codename:   buster

Trying to get a OpenGL Mathematics (GLM):

$ ./vcpkg search glm
glm                  0.9.8.5-1        OpenGL Mathematics (GLM) https://glm.g-truc.net
$ ./vcpkg install glm
The following packages will be built and installed:

Error: Building package glm:x64-linux failed with: BUILD_FAILED
Please ensure you're using the latest portfiles with `.\vcpkg update`, then
submit an issue at https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg/issues including:
  Package: glm:x64-linux
  Vcpkg version: 0.0.110-unknownhash

Additionally, attach any relevant sections from the log files above.

Here logs vcpkg/buildtrees/glm/install-x64-linux-dbg-out.log glm_failed.txt

Output of log file very similar to issue from official repository https://github.com/g-truc/glm/issues/726 and it fixed in 0.9.9(current package version is glm-0.9.8.5)

How can i fix this issue?

I also get a build error, but with a different call stack:

Call Stack (most recent call first):
  scripts/cmake/vcpkg_configure_cmake.cmake:247 (vcpkg_execute_required_process)
  ports/glm/portfile.cmake:16 (vcpkg_configure_cmake)
  scripts/ports.cmake:72 (include)

By looking at error log, I saw that CXX needed to be defined for this to build, so after export CXX=g++-8 I was able to successfully build; however, I feel like vcpkg should have been able to build without my needing to set CXX explicitly.

Hi @boddicheg, I had 2 separate build issues with glm, but neither of them are related to vcpkg:

1. As I wrote in my reply above, I needed to make sure CXX was pointing to a more recent g++ version. From your log, it seems you would need to do the same:

   /home/boddicheg/Dropbox/Projects/SimpleEngine3D/vendor/vcpkg/buildtrees/glm/src/glm-0.9.8.5/glm/detail/setup.hpp:456:100: note: #pragma message: GLM: GCC older than 4.6 has a bug presenting the use of rgba and stpq components
   # pragma message("GLM: GCC older than 4.6 has a bug presenting the use of rgba and stpq components")

2. Using Travis, I got another build error in GLM:

   /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/8/include/immintrin.h:113:10: fatal error: movdirintrin.h: No such file or directory
   #include <movdirintrin.h>
         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

   Turns out this is a known issue with gcc 8.0.1 because this version is actually missing this file. I was able to fix this by installing gcc 7 and using it when building glm, something like:

   env CC=gcc-7 CXX=g++-7 vcpkg install glm

Perhaps you can verify if this works for you?
