Indeed, that is the problem.

To recap on that patch:

Clint's objection was that running find could be rather expensive.

Well, it would make fakeroot depend on dpkg-dev which is rather
undesirable.

I think the solution is for each libfakeroot:$ARCH to add its directory
to fakeroot's search path via a configuration file.  Actually, those
already exist, namely the /etc/ld.so.conf.d/fakeroot-*.conf files.  So
how about the patch below?

Subject: [PATCH] Make fakeroot multi-arch aware

Each libfakeroot:$ARCH package already adds an entry to
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/, reuse that for fakeroot's own search path.

Remove the lib{64,32}/fakeroot directories from the search path, since
those do not exist anymore.

I have left the directory for the native architecture at the front which
causes a duplicate entry.  That should be harmless, but if it is
considered undesirable, it would also be possible to drop @libdir@: from
$PATHS.  In that case fakeroot could even become an arch:all package.

Cheers,

 Package: fakeroot
 Version: 1.20-3
 Followup-For: Bug #636192

 Forgive me if I'm mistaken, but fakeroot still does not appear to work
 across architectures (at least the i386 version):

   $ dpkg -s fakeroot | grep ^Arch
   Architecture: i386
   $ dpkg -s ascii | grep ^Arch

   $ fakeroot-sysv ascii -v
   ERROR: ld.so: object 'libfakeroot-sysv.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be 
 preloaded: ignored.
   ascii 3.14

You will also need libfakeroot:amd64.

The library is there; its directory is simply not present in the list
assigned to $PATHS (line 38):

Forgive me if I'm mistaken, but fakeroot still does not appear to work

Maybe I'm wrong, but I think that the invocation of find in the
assignment to $PATH was meant to be at runtime, but was instead done at
compile-time.  Replacing the hardcoded path list with the `find` command

As far as fakeroot doesn't support multiarch, this bug for fakechroot
can't be fixed.

fakechroot supported multiarch for long time. I'm wondering why author
of fakeroot can't implement it for a months even if he'd got a proper
patch in this bug report #636192

Running find on every invocation is pretty annoying, but I'll take
a look shortly.

2013/11/27 Clint Adams cl...@debian.org:

There is another possibility: use the default dynamic linker feature
and simply add the path to fakeroot library to /etc/ld.so.conf.d so it
should work with empty LD_LIBRARY_PATH

binary_arch:
# ...
echo /usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/libfakeroot 
debian/libfakeroot/etc/ld.so.conf.d/fakeroot-$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH).conf

You can see the difference between fakeroot and fakechroot:

(sid)dexter@sony-vaio-sve1112m1ep:/$ fakeroot env | grep LD | sort
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libfakeroot:/usr/lib64/libfakeroot:/usr/lib32/libfakeroot
LD_PRELOAD=libfakeroot-sysv.so

(sid)dexter@sony-vaio-sve1112m1ep:/$ fakechroot env | grep LD | sort
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=
LD_PRELOAD=libfakechroot.so

(sid)dexter@sony-vaio-sve1112m1ep:/$ cat
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/fakechroot-x86_64-linux-gnu.conf
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/fakechroot

(sid)dexter@sony-vaio-sve1112m1ep:/$ cat
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/fakechroot-i386-linux-gnu.conf
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/fakechroot

Each architecture adds own ld.so.conf config so dynamic linker can
load proper file by itself.

If so we might as well put libfakeroot into /usr/lib/$triple
and be done with it.

There is a reason to put it separately. I think it doesn't mess with
gcc because libfakeroot.so or libfakechroot.so are not intended to
linking by compile time.
I'm afraid that such shared library in standard directory would also
violate the Debian Policy because it hadn't proper symlink
(libfakeroot.so.0 or something) and archive file (libfakechroot.a).

1.18.2-1 did not actually add multiarch support; it only moved the 
libraries around.  And because the biarch libraries were removed, it’s 
also a regression over 1.18.1-1.

These conflicting files either need to be made identical somehow (e.g. the 
manpages could be gzipped with -n), or moved into a separate non-multiarch 
package.  Alternatively, the libraries could be moved into a separate 
multiarch package while the main fakeroot package remains non-multiarch.

Files amd64/usr/share/man/sv/man1/fakeroot-tcp.1.gz and 
i386/usr/share/man/sv/man1/fakeroot-tcp.1.gz differ

These conflicting files either need to be made identical somehow (e.g. the 
manpages could be gzipped with -n), or moved into a separate non-multiarch 
package.  Alternatively, the libraries could be moved into a separate 
multiarch package while the main fakeroot package remains non-multiarch.

Bug#636192: make fakeroot multiarch

2011-09-13 Thread Johannes Schauer
Hi,

I attached a tarball of my ./debian directory which converts the package
to multiarch but still uses debhelper.

I didnt come to converting this to not require debhelper yet but thought
it would make sense to document my current status anyway.

cheers, josch

Bug#636192: make fakeroot multiarch

2011-08-01 Thread Johannes Schauer
Package: fakeroot
Version: 1.16-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

when using fakeroot (and fakechroot) to execute foreign binaries with
qemu user mode emulation, a foreign libfakeroot-sysv.so is required as
well.

multiarch would be an easy way to install such a foreign shared library,
given that additionally to the original fakeroot package (containing the
/usr/bin scripts and manpages and by that being Architecture: all) a
libfakeroot package is created (containing the shared library only and
marked as Multi-Arch: same)

making fakeroot multiarch would also remove all of the mess that is
currently going on in debian/rules which does lib32 and lib64 builds.

I can prepare a patch for you that converts fakeroot to multiarch if you
like/want me to and dont have time?

making fakeroot multiarch would also solve #624724

cheers, josch

Yes.  Just keep in mind that the fakeroot source should still be functional
on other platforms, please.
