Re: [gentoo-dev] Interest in a yarn / NPM eclass

2022-06-08 Thread Ryan Qian
I have an npm.eclass (
https://github.com/bekcpear/ryans-repos/blob/main/eclass/npm.eclass) that
works like EGO_SUM.

However, the package-lock.json file should be patched to convert sha1 to
sha512 due to the default mechanism (script:
https://github.com/bekcpear/npm-lockfile-to-sha512.sh).

I maintain a package www-apps/filebrowser by this eclass in my overlay.

I'll take this one, with Infra as fallback maintainers.

Infra need/wants a few of these packages, so please consider us

Since you know this yarn/NPM ecosystem well, could you evaluate two
other ideas?
4) Solutions like EGO_SUM
5) EGO_SUM successor of 2nd-level-Metadata-Manifest that I described in the 
recent EGO_SUM thread.

Your above is entirely correct, and I was against the plan to introduce
dependency tarballs.

EGO_SUM vs dependency tarballs:
- bloats ebuilds
- bloats Manifests
- bloats metadata/md5-cache/ (SRC_URI etc)
- doesn't bloat mirrors with gentoo-unique distfiles
- EGO_SUM is verifiable/reproducible from Upstream Go systems
- less downloads on upgrades (only changed Go deps, not entire dep tarballs)

EGO_SUM data right now adds, to every user's system:
- 2.6MB of text to ebuilds (340k after de-dupe)
- 7MB of text to Manifests (2M after de-dupe)
- 6.4MB+ of text to metadata/md5-cache (I don't have a easy way to calc deduped 
amount here)
On the server side:
- The sum total of Go distfiles mirrored on Gentoo mirrors right now is only 
3.4GB.
- less downloads

Dependency tarballs:
- Right now ~15GiB on each mirror, plus storage of the primary copy
  somewhere (dev.g.o right now, but not great)
- Conservatively if the remaining EGO_SUM packages converted to Dep
  tarballs, it would need another 8GB each of primary location and
  mirrors.
- larger downloads for users who DO want to upgrade a Go package (all
  new deps tarball even if only one or two deps changed)
- must be preserved much longer, unless we can introduce a guaranteed
  way to regenerate them for any prior ebuild.

I was trying to introduce a third option, but I haven't had the time to
write an entire GLEP.

The TL;DR is introducing a 2nd-level Manifest+metadata file, that tries
to move just the metadata out of the tree, in a way that can be
regenerated (specifically, a 1:1 reproducible creation from a given go.sum).
It DOES need to contain slightly more data than the present Manifest,
specifically a full SRC_URI entry for each file (upstream URI plus what
to rename it to on Gentoo side)

The 2nd-level Manifest would be listed as SRC_URI, and be handled in
src_fetch/src_unpack. Download & verify the extra distfiles, against the
Manifest checksum data (and for Golang against go.sum checksums).

The Portage mirrordist code needs the most work in this case, as it
would need to fetch the 2nd-level Manifests so it can populate Gentoo
mastermirror with the distfiles mirrored from upstream.

The storage costs for the proposed idea:
- same 1:1 base distfile storage as EGO_SUM (e.g. upstream distfiles are
  mirrored 1:1 content, just different naming)
- Probably 1 Metadata-Manifest file per ebuild $PVR (conceptually it
  could be split more or shared between some ebuilds/packages)
- Main tree Manifests: 1 DIST entry per Metadata-Manifest in a given package
- Main tree ebuilds: 1 line for the Metadata-Manifest in the ebuild.
- metadata/md5-cache: 1 src_uri line!
- mirrors: add the Metadata-Manifest

I'm interested in an eclass that doesn't bundle everything together. Also
I'm interested in anyone that can share the package maintainership (in guru
first).

I've already tried 3 approaches:
1) one package per dependency. The npm eclass is working fine for now, you
can unbundle packages that depend on system libs (like sqlite), the major
issue I've found is in the circular dependencies of the rollup package.

2) bundle everything. This approach doesn't always work. Some packages fail
to build dependencies written in C and you can't unbundle them.

3) package every runtime dependency and bundle build time dependencies.
Since rollup is a build time dep, I've tried to bundle every build time dep
but this require to create a custom stuff and host it somewhere.


[gentoo-dev] Reliably find MPI implementation

2022-06-08 Thread Alessandro Barbieri
I have a package that uncorrectly guesses the mpi implementation because
it's grepping the /usr/include/mpi.h and since it's a multilib wrapper, it
doesn't contain the defines. I can specify the mpi implementation while
configuring.

How to reliably detect the MPI implementation?
I need something (eclass ?) that return one the following:
openmpi/mpich/mpich2/mpich3/lam/etc. based on the current installed status
