As CSW packages (blastwave.org/opencsw.org) are not part of the running path, ~/bin contains a symlink to /opt/csw/bin/git (git is also from opencsw while all other CSW packages come from Blastwave. Potential for interestingness.) From Blastwave, doxygen is installed for libsigc++2.

mono needs --disable-dtrace added to the configure flags (as DTrace requires root permissions)

There are compiler-specific options in .jhbuildrc-suncc and .jhbuildrc-gcc, which get imported using the JHBUILD_CC environment variable. This is because jhbuild buildbot doesn't support the --file argument (although it might support JHBUILDRC, rendering the cleverness above unnecessary):

There are a few CSW packages (blastwave.org) installed - git 1.6 as SXCE only has 1.5, and doxygen is installed for libsigc++2.

It then gets stuck compiling something as described in [http://go-mono.com/forums/#nabble-to22587130|a22587130 this thread] which seems to be SPARC-related (as it also hangs on Linux/SPARC), reported as [https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=504592 Novell bug 504592].

  cc is the Sun compiler; perhaps we need an extra flag to use gcc for all modules (although arguably the configure script should be checking all these flags for us, it spends the whole time checking GCC.)

Manduba should run a GNOME buildbot slave in order to help tinderbox the GNOME code, linked to http://build.gnome.org/ TableOfContents

Running configuration

Manduba is running SunOS manduba 5.11 snv_101 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-Enterprise Solaris

The buildbot runs as user 'buildbot' from /space/buildbot/

See http://developers.sun.com/solaris/articles/build_sw_on_solaris.html and http://wikis.sun.com/display/SolarisDeveloper/Issues+When+Porting+Open+Source+Projects+to+Solaris for general advice.

There are a few CSW packages (blastwave.org) installed - git 1.6 as SXCE only has 1.5, and doxygen is installed for libsigc++2.

GNU MP (in the bootstrap moduleset) builds 64-bit libraries by default, which then cannot be linked against the 32-bit binaries that the toolchain produces for EVERYTHING ELSE. This makes guile fail to configure. There is a module_autogenargs setting to override this (module_extra_env didn't seem to work).

There are sometimes spurious warnings "'variable' might be used uninitialized in this function" which become fatal thanks to -Werror that some modules enable when being built from version control. This is because we're using gcc 3.4 which has poor logic compared to more recent versions, so rather than wasting maintainers' time, just silence the warnings by putting -Wno-uninitialized in CFLAGS.

http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/jds/spec-files/trunk/ may contain useful patches that should be pushed upstream.

Configuration procedure

Part 1: Configure jhbuild

http://live.gnome.org/Jhbuild

manduba: ~> mkdir -p ~/checkout/gnome2
manduba: ~> cd ~/checkout/gnome2
manduba: ~/checkout/gnome2> svn co http://svn.gnome.org/svn/jhbuild/trunk jhbuild
manduba: ~/checkout/gnome2> cd jhbuild
manduba: ~/checkout/gnome2/jhbuild> gmake -f Makefile.plain install-check CFLAGS='-DWITH_INSTALL=\"/usr/ucb/install\"'

(see http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=364465)

manduba: ~/checkout/gnome2/jhbuild> gmake -f Makefile.plain
manduba: ~/checkout/gnome2/jhbuild> gmake -f Makefile.plain install

Create ~/.jhbuildrc as above.

To pick up standard version of gettext, libtool, automake-1.{4,7,8,9,10}, pkg-config, python, guile and waf,

manduba: ~> jhbuild bootstrap --ignore-system

Building gettext-0.17 on Solaris requires special arguments: http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?21604 which are added to jhbuild above. However, using the bootstrap version fixes errors on Solaris with "AM_NLS" Automake macros (the system gettext doesn't have them).

Part 2: Configure buildbot

http://live.gnome.org/BuildBrigade/DocsAndGuides

jhbuild bot --setup

(more to come)

Current Issues

/!\ Current issues:

  • No SSL CA certs for wget, meaning Mozilla packages have to be manually downloaded
  • PolicyKit doesn't configure because when checking for PAM it tries to pass -l,as-needed which isn't supported by Solaris' ld(1). It also assumes that if using GCC, you're using GNU ld, which is not the case. Search configure.in for 'as-needed' to see the check. Filed as https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20060 (hacks are in place to work around this, but the make fails later. Needs more investigation.)

  • A bunch of modules fail to build with this error:

/usr/include/sys/feature_tests.h:353:2: #error "Compiler or options invalid for pre-UNIX 03 X/Open applications and pre-2001 POSIX applications"

checking for gdbm_open in -lgdbm... no
checking gdbm.h usability... no
checking gdbm.h presence... no
checking for gdbm.h... no
configure: error: gdbm.h not found
  • This is because gdbm is not available as a SUNW package or in buildbot (only by CSW). Filed as http://pulseaudio.org/ticket/493 - patching looks reasonably simple because use is confined to a single file.

  • libdaemon doesn't build because of a reference to _NSIG (instead of NSIG) in dfork.c - this is fixed in HEAD but not 0.13.
  • cairo 1.8.6 creates a messed up libtool:

  • each error occurs four times, and there's many more errors on line 1156. Copying the libtool from 1.8.4 works, but it'll be overwritten whenever autogen.sh is run. Needs futher investigation.
  • clutter-cairo could use a dependency on clutter, otherwise configure fails.
  • dbus 1.2.12 dies in configure ([https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21545 freedesktop bug 21545]):

/usr/include/signal.h:219: error: syntax error before '*' token
  • gbacktrace.h including signal.h without also sys/select.h is the proximate cause. I suspect this is also fixable with the right -std= flag (ala the Compiler or options error above) or defining __XOPEN_OR_POSIX and (_XPG42 or _XPG6). Currently fixed with a local patch to gbacktrace.h in glib see http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=562334 .

  • system-tools-backends doesn't compile because Net-DBus' Makefile.PL unconditionally adds -Wall to CFLAGS which breaks because the system perl is compiled with Sun Studio. Reported as [https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=46218 CPAN ticket 46218] and will require system-tools-backends to then update its local copy of Net-DBus.

  • clutter doesn't build - possibly lack of an OpenGL library? Best guess is it needs SUNWxorg-mesa, which is x86 only!

Compiling with Sun Studio

[http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/ Sun Studio 12] is preferentially used by Sun for compiling GNOME in Solaris, and provides another layer of error detection, e.g. void functions that return values. It's installed into /opt/SUNWspro and /opt/SUNWspro/bin is added to PATH.

Skip guile in the bootstrap as it doesn't compile and isn't used by much; Sun don't even ship it:

manduba: ~> JHBUILD_CC=suncc jhbuild bootstrap --skip guile --ignore-system

Issues only affecting Sun Studio
