core: drop no-longer used C.UTF-8 locale option

2018-03-04T10:59:16+00:00

Its use has been globbed into the more generic BR2_NEEDS_HOST_UTF8_LOCALE option now. Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN" Cc: Thomas Petazzoni Cc: Peter Korsgaard Cc: Julius Kriukas Cc: Christian Stewart Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

support/dependencies: unbreak check for UTF-8 locale

2018-03-04T10:46:48+00:00

Although the UTF-8 locales in mainstream distributions all are suffixed with just 'utf8', the nomenclature is a bit ambiguous with the way they are to be specified with the various LC_* variables, suffixed there with 'UTF-8'. Also, POSIX, ISO, and IEC do not enforce any specific suffix in LC_* variables: http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap08.html#tag_08_02 """ If the locale value has the form: language[_territory][.codeset] it refers to an implementation-provided locale, where settings of language, territory, and codeset are implementation-defined. """ To avoid any confusion, use a regexp that is a bit more lax when matching locales. Also, quote the regexp, so that the '?' and '$' are not interpreted by the shell. Signed-off-by: "Yann E.

support/dependencies/dependencies.sh: check for Python argparse module

2018-03-03T16:18:18+00:00

The script support/scripts/check-uniq-files uses the argparse Python module. In most recent Python versions (starting with 2.7), the argparse module is part of the standard library, and we already check for the availability of Python in support/dependencies/dependencies.sh. However, when running on an ancient distribution with Python 2.6, the argparse module is not part of the Python standard library, but available as an external module. Without this module, the build fails, because check-uniq-files, which is used in target-finalize, fails to run. To avoid this failure, this commit adds a check in support/dependencies/dependencies.sh to verify that the argparse module is available. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni Acked-by: "Yann E.

systemd: switch to C.UTF-8 locale when building

2018-03-02T21:44:34+00:00

When BR2_REPRODUCIBLE is enabled or host uses non UTF-8 capable locale building systemd fails with an error: [1/1080] Generating systemd.bg.catalog with a meson_exe.py custom command.

check-host-tar.sh: blacklist tar 1.30+

2018-02-27T16:02:26+00:00

Tar 1.30 changed the --numeric-owner output for filenames > 100 characters, leading to hash mismatches for the tar archives we create ourselves from git. This is really a fix for a bug in earlier tar versions regarding deterministic output, so it is unlikely to be reverted in later versions. For more details, see: http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2018-January/211222.html To work around this issue, blacklist tar 1.30+ similar to how we do it for pre-1.17 versions so Buildroot falls back to building host-tar.

dependencies.mk: check for valid host-tar before other host dependencies

2018-02-27T16:01:47+00:00

host-{cmake,lzip,xz} needs host-tar to extract their source code tarball, so we need to ensure that host-tar gets added to DEPENDENCIES_HOST_PREREQ before these in case they are both needed, otherwise the tools will fail to extract. With the upcoming change to blacklist modern tar versions this situation is likely to trigger more often. The real solution to this issue is the _EXTRACT_DEPENDENCIES rework, but that series is a bit too intrusive to add this close to 2018.02, so therefore this hack.

support/dependencies: add check for c++ multilib

2018-02-06T16:21:09+00:00

Some packages build C++ 32bits host-tools and need the g++-multilib to be installed on the build machine. As example, qt5webengine builds a C++ host-tool when target is 32bits. Add the check for g++-multilib to the dependencies script; and update the Dockerfile to install g++-multilib package. Signed-off-by: Gaël PORTAY Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

dependencies: correct dependencies for top-level parallel build

2018-01-08T22:37:59+00:00

Commit 4932c8a7cc94277b3d53cecd935f725b91cfa9fe introduced the core-dependencies target to make sure that the dependencies.sh script runs before we attempt to compile any host tool, so that the absence of a compiler is properly detected. However, this relied on the left-to-right evaluation of dependencies. This will no longer be true when we enable top-level parallel build. Fix this by letting DEPENDENCIES_HOST_PREREQ depend on core-dependencies. Note that it is not possible to remove the dependencies <- core-dependencies. Indeed, it is possible that DEPENDENCIES_HOST_PREREQ is completely empty, and in that case we still need to check core-dependencies.

core-dependencies: remove unneeded HOSTCC

2018-01-08T22:37:54+00:00

dependencies.sh uses HOSTCC_NOCCACHE directly, and this variable is exported from the top-level Makefile, so there is no need to pass HOSTCC to it. HOSTCC is not used at all in dependencies.sh. Thus, we also no longer need to apply the HOSTCC override for core-dependencies. The core-depencies rule doesn't use HOSTCC or HOSTCXX.

dependencies: always use HOSTCC_NOCACHE for DEPENDENCIES_HOST_PREREQ

2017-10-22T13:42:26+00:00

Currently, HOSTCC and HOSTCXX are set to their _NOCACHE variants in the 'dependencies' target. This is needed because at that time, ccache is not built yet - host-ccache is one of the dependencies. However, because this override is only specified for the 'dependencies' target (and thereby gets inherited by its dependencies), the override is only applied when the package is reached through the 'dependencies' target. This is not the case when one of DEPENDENCIES_HOST_PREREQ is built directly from the command line, e.g. when doing 'make host-ccache'. So in that case, ccache will be built with ccache... which fails of course. To fix this, directly apply the override to the DEPENCIES_HOST_PREREQ targets. Note that this only fixes the issue for 'make host-ccache', NOT for e.g. 'make host-ccache-configure'.
