Architectures/ARM/Fedora15 HardFP Bootstrap package status

We are currently engaged in bootstrap of support for armv7hl ("hardfp") ARM systems in Fedora. The purpose of this page is to track the individual status of packages (and their dependencies) that have been built for Fedora.

Problematic packages

See http://arm-temp.ausil.us/pub/fedora-arm/stage-4-failures.html for the list of pending packages that have not succeeded building

Please add notes regarding specific packages here. When completed move them down to Completed.

kdelibs

Depends on soprano-devel -> qt-docs

qt

An updated qt-4.7.3-6.fc15 was built somehow in stage3, but the -doc package was not included.

The same version fails to build from source in stage4.

The original qt-4.7.2-8.fc15 release version fails with a problem related to mysql or openssl:

DEBUG util.py:247:  ERROR with rpm_check_debug vs depsolve:
DEBUG util.py:247:  openssl-devel(armv7hnl-32) is needed by mysql-devel-5.5.10-2.fc15.armv7hl
DEBUG util.py:247:  (1, [u'Please report this error in http://yum.baseurl.org/report'])

this may be related to the yum repository priority problem, or the mysql-devel package in stage3 is borked. But seems this error is only seen sometimes?

mysql have been rebuilt, solving the above problem.

but then fails on a build problem

../../include/QtCore/../../src/corelib/arch/qatomic_arm.h: In function 'void qt_removeObject(QObject*)':
../../include/QtCore/../../src/corelib/arch/qatomic_arm.h:361:35: error: output number 1 not directly addressable

Appears to be a GCC bug? http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.handhelds.openembedded.core/1457 Khem Raj | 1 Jun 08:21

Referenced GCC patch: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2011-03/msg01477.html commit http://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs/trunk/gcc/expr.c?r1=171341&r2=171347&view=patch

Patches used for stage3: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/arm/2011-September/001964.html

Patching GCC, then building qt again.

Now fails with a thumb related error

{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:2878: Error: selected processor does not support Thumb mode `swp r6,r4,[r3]'

which is odd as the cpu do support thumb mode.

Upstream bug report: https://bugreports.qt.nokia.com//browse/QTBUG-15911 which is supposedly fixed. Confusing.

Others seeing same problem http://developer.qt.nokia.com/forums/viewthread/7304 http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Building_Qt http://www.qtcentre.org/threads/44311-unkown-toolchain

There is some mention about Thumb(2) not really being a supported platform for Qt.

gcc

gcc-4.6.1-4.fc15.0.arm1 patched with the patch needed for compiling ARMv7 qt.

soprano

Depends on qt-docs (why?) which were not included in the stage3 build.

Depends on phonon -> PackageKit-gstreamer-plugin

crash

Fails on ExclusiveArch check.

There is an updated version which adds arm to the list of supported architectures (koji build), but not built in stage3 and never pushed as an official F15 update. The build have expired in koji and have been garbage collected.'

Bug 734607 filed and fixed in crash-5.1.7-2 in (f17/rawhide). Update to F15 on it's way.

Update available and queued for build. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/crash-5.1.7-2.fc15

The fix is most likely simply removing the --export-dynamic flag.

Completed

These packages have completed a full build with some manual actions

PackageKit

Required changing src/pk-main.c to check version glib version 2,29,4 instead of 2,28,7. This later version is where glib-unix.h begins getting installed by glib2-devel.

xulrunner

xulrunner-2.0.1-1.fc15 failed with

checking size of int *... 0
configure: error: Unexpected pointer size

Fixed by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=738509

Is *not* this upstream bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=626035

mysql

mysql-5.5.14-2.fc15.0.arm1 was built with 2 patches from stage3:

mysql-home.patch: define DEFAULT_HOME_ENV mysql-valist_fix.patch: Use a dummy va_list for client_plugin.c

Additionally, the perfschema.func_mutex and perfschema.func_file_io test cases were removed as they failed during build/test time. These should be investigated and a proper fix put in place.

phonon

Have a circular dependency on it's backend providers. Main phonon package have been built but can not be installed as there is no backend providers, and blocks the backend providers from being built.

As the main package is already in stage4 the normal boostrap procedure of temporarily removing dependencies do not work well.

Trying alternative dependency override by manually installing phonon using rpm

rm rpms/phonon-backend-gstreamer-4.5.1-1.fc15/*.log
mock -r fedora-15-armhfp --init --no-cleanup-after --result rpms/phonon-backend-gstreamer-4.5.1-1.fc15/
mock -r fedora-15-armhfp --result rpms/phonon-backend-gstreamer-4.5.1-1.fc15/ --installdeps rpms/phonon-4.5.0-2.fc15/phonon-4.5.0-2.fc15.src.rpm 
mock -r fedora-15-armhfp --result rpms/phonon-backend-gstreamer-4.5.1-1.fc15/ --copyin rpms/phonon-4.5.0-2.fc15/phonon-4.5.0-2.fc15.armv7hl.rpm builddir/
mock -r fedora-15-armhfp --result rpms/phonon-backend-gstreamer-4.5.1-1.fc15/ --chroot "rpm -i builddir/phonon-4.5.0-2.fc15.armv7hl.rpm --nodeps" 
mock -r fedora-15-armhfp --no-clean --no-cleanup-after --result rpms/phonon-backend-gstreamer-4.5.1-1.fc15/ SRPMS/phonon-backend-gstreamer-4.5.1-1.fc15.src.rpm

Resulting phonon-backend-gstreamer however depends on PackageKit-gstreamer-plugin which is not yet built..??

Another possible approach would have been to make a temporary phonon-backend-gstreamer-0.0.bootstrap package that only provides "phonon(backend}". This is probably recommended way of solving this kind of user experience runtime dependencies causing circular build dependencies.

systemtap-sdt

Was build in stage3 somehow.

Depends on crash-devel, which fails on ExclusiveArch check.

There is an update koji build which removes the dependency on crash. Now scheduled for build. First attempts crashed for unknown reasons, but after rescheduling it again it seems to be building.

Worked fine this time.

arts

Stray /usr/lib/*.la files packaged in the binary rpm with "bad" content. These files are both developer files and did contain further references to other unpackaged .la files in the stage3 build. Rebuilt in stage4 which cleaned up the contents of the .la files a bit, but strangely kdelibs3 still fails with the same error?

Turns out the .la files is supposed to be there for kde3. And the stage4 build contains the correct files.

The failure with same error even after arts was rebuilt was caused by yum picking the wrong repository. Using the fixed yum version and it works much better.

kdelibs3

kdelibs3 in F15 is FTBFS.

There is an updated kdelibs3-3.5.10-28.fc15 in which did succeed building in koji. This was never pushed as an update however and have already been cleaned by the koji garbage collector

Even the updated version fails to build on ARM but now with the following error

/bin/sh ../../libtool --silent --tag=CXX   --mode=link g++  -DNDEBUG -DNO_DEBUG -O2 -O2 -g -march=armv7-a -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=vfpv3-d16 -mthumb -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common  -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION  -L/usr/lib/qt-3.3/lib  -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,--enable-new-dtags  -no-undefined -version-info 3:0:2  -o libartskde.la -rpath /usr/lib libartskde_la.all_cc.lo libartskde_la.all_cpp.lo  ../../kio/libkio.la -lqtmcop -lsoundserver_idl
grep: /usr/lib/libgmodule-2.0.la: No such file or directory
/bin/sed: can't read /usr/lib/libgmodule-2.0.la: No such file or directory
make[3]: Leaving directory `/builddir/build/BUILD/kdelibs-3.5.10/arts/kde'

This seems to be caused by stray .la files which have been packaged in the arts binary rpm package (not even -devel). These stray .la files is seen even on the primary arches but contents seem to differ and build there succeeds.

arts have been rebuilt in stage4 and looks better. kdelibs3 build now suceeding

libSM

FTBFS in F15. No fixed package available.

Patched in stage3

Reworked the patch a little and added to FTBFS bug #660819

Some further investigation and it's actually xmlto that is broken causing FTBFS here and in a number of other packages. xmlto Bug #681909

Compiles fine with updated/fixed xmlto.

sqlite

sqlite-3.7.5-3 fails in several selftests

it is built in stage3 somehow but there is no SRPM or spec file available on arm-temp so can't tell how.

there is a newer -5 build in koji by pbrobinson, disabling self tests on arm, but never pushed as an update and have been garbage collected. Regenerated from git.

Should investigate with upstream why those selftests fail. Also check a more current version.
