Not at all - i don't remember hearing from someone who's cross-compiled it.

Re: [fossil-users] Fossil on Raspberry Pi

[Ross Berteig]

I had a similarly positive experience and result from doing "the obvious 
thing" and compiling native on an RPi. I obtained a tarball from the 
usual place and then did ./configure and make.

I didn't time it and it was a while ago, but 20 min isn't wrong IIRC.



FYI: I cross-compiled Fossil for ARM as

Configure

   % ./configure CROSS=arm-linux-gnueabihf- --with-miniz --with-openssl=none

I likely turned on JSON support, but I don't have the RPi in arms reach 
to check. I don't recall telling it not to SSL. I certainly didn't do a 
static build or influence the choices of anything else.



Build

   make ;# it took about  2 min on my old laptop


Yeah, cross-compilation may be the way to go for RPi. It just isn't a 
hot developer platform.


Incidentally, the same was true for an Amazon EC2 instance (a t2.micro, 
or their least powerful instance) running their stock trimmed Linux 
distro (which seems to be a Red Hat derivative). wget, ./configure, make 
just worked aside from the usual quirks. The compile time was just a 
little faster, like a few tens of seconds.

Re: [fossil-users] Fossil on Raspberry Pi

[Bjorn Madsen]

Hi - I just got a newbie asking how to get fossil to run in raspbian and of
course searched the mail archives as the first option.

Could you add a comment on the top of the download site that `apt-get
install fossil` is available?

Thank you :-)

Maybe we just need to add a pre-compiled binary for raspbian...

If you'd like a specific build, let me know the options and my pi is now
running 24/7 now, so i can get it built (the last guy who lived here
LAN-wired the whole house, so i've got a place to stash the Pi!).

BTW: that offer's not just for Richard - send your build option requests

build after a reconfigure/clean, so i can't do more than a few a day,
though.

 FWIW, took 6m36.130s to compile with -Os on the beaglebone.


The Pi could do it faster if i'd bother to plug in an external USB drive,
rather than build directly on the SD card. i doubt it could do 6-7 minutes,
though. i forgot how long the odroid U3 took (and it isn't connected right
now), but in general it's 5-6 times faster at compiling C than the Pi is.

Thus said Stephan Beal on Mon, 28 Jul 2014 23:27:04 +0200:

 (BTW: is --static preferred or not nowadays?)

I  prefer to  use --static  when fossil  is going  to be  in a  chrooted
environment to  minimize dependencies,  but typically  I use  it without
--static for daily use.
