makepkg compilation error

vario · 2024-04-24 14:48:29

Is this the right place to ask about AUR packages?

I look after the courier-mta package and since the previous package (v1.3.5) there has presumably been a change to pacman or makepkg as my PKGBUILD now fails to build.
I can run the configure and make from the command line and get a successful compilation so I assume the issue lies with makepkg.

Here is the relevant section of the config.log:

This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

It was created by courier configure 1.3.7, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.71.  Invocation command line was

  $ ./configure --prefix=/usr --sbindir=/usr/bin --sysconfdir=/etc/courier --libdir=/usr/lib --libexecdir=/usr/lib --localstatedir=/var/spool/courier --enable-unicode --enable-workarounds-for-imap-client-bugs --enable-mimetypes=/etc/mime.types --with-piddir=/run/courier --with-trashquota --with-db=gdbm --with-random=/dev/urandom --with-mailuser=courier --with-mailgroup=courier --with-certdb=/etc/ssl/certs/ --with-notice=unicode

Post your makepkg.conf

Nope. I moved to to AUR Issues for you.

So everything there is fine, it's likely they way their build system is using $LDFLAGS.

https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/ … er-mta#n60
Replace

  LDFLAGS+=",-L /usr/lib/courier-authlib -lcourierauth"

with

  LDFLAGS+=" -L/usr/lib/courier-authlib -lcourierauth"

or

  LDFLAGS+=" -Wl,-L/usr/lib/courier-authlib -Wl,-lcourierauth"

Edit:
Missing makedepends on procps-ng and systemd.

Many thanks for getting to the bottom of this so quickly. If I replace the leading comma in LDFLAGS with space I get this far:

/bin/sh ./libtool  --tag=CC   --mode=link gcc  -march=x86-64 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe -fno-plt -fexceptions         -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 -Wformat -Werror=format-security         -fstack-clash-protection -fcf-protection         -fno-omit-frame-pointer -mno-omit-leaf-frame-pointer -g -ffile-prefix-map=/home/aur/courier-mta/src=/usr/src/debug/courier-mta -flto=auto  -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--sort-common -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-z,now          -Wl,-z,pack-relative-relocs -flto=auto -L /usr/lib/courier-authlib -lcourierauth -o libgdbmobj.la  gdbmobj.lo gdbmobj2.lo gdbmobj3.lo -lgdbm

    Aborting...

Removing the space after "-L" does the trick.

The second suggestion introducing -wl fails in the same way as the original.

I guess there must have been some stricter syntax check introduced recently.

Neil.

-wl should be -Wl which instructs the compiler to pass the options to the linker though it does not matter for -L and -l as the compiler knows about those options.

vario · 2024-04-24 16:30:30

I know this is a bit lazy of me, but now I get two directories in the pkg folder where before only one...

1) pkg/courier-mta
2) pkg/courier-mta-debug

Do I need to be concerned about the "-debug" directory? How do I avoid it?

Neil.

SOLVED - add options=(!debug) to the PKGBUILD
