Hi Kyle

the package is NOT built using cmake but is using autoconf.
There are no special change. So upstream have not included those files
in the 1.12.3 autoconf

I have not yet tried to build using cmake nor built the 1.14.x series

I can reproduce the build failure locally.

 From a brief inspection, this seems to make sense: strcasecmp is 
unconditionally defined by strings.h, which doesn't seem to be included 
anywhere in antlr.


(There's maybe some way it gets indirectly included, maybe via string.h 
if __BSD_VISIBLE, but perhaps that's due to some local flags settings?)




thanks for double checking

The problem was subtle; the original and ancient

 https://www.antlr2.org/download/antlr-2.7.7.tar.gz

need patching to work with recent compiler.
I had a different version, with the same name, on my computer
but I forgot to update the SRC_URI, so me locally and scallyweg were 
working on different source packages.

I looked on the python package, and it seems you are missing the baseline

 pynfft: Python bindings around the NFFT C-library, which uses the
speed of FFTW,

to have the bindings you need first to port the library NFFT to Cygwin.

It seems interesting from Mathematical point of view and I will give it a try.
No promise as time is scarse and my real job, that NOT in software, is
taking a lot of extra hours.

Cygwin is just an hobby

It was on the TODO list, but I was hit by the failed upgrade from
3.9.16-1 to 3.9.18-1

Re: [cygport] enabling a replacement for "objdump -d -l"

[Marco Atzeri via Cygwin-apps]

On 18/02/2024 20:51, ASSI via Cygwin-apps wrote:


Cygport uses "objdump -d -l" to extract the list of source files that
need to be copied into the debuginfo package.  This operation triggers
some O(N²) or even higher complexity and in addition has been getting
slower in recent binutils releases due to more and more information
being put into the object files.  For gcc-11 extracting the debug source
files takes up to 45 minutes per executable (up from about 15 minutes
until 2.39) and for gcc-13 (with about 1.5 times the number of lines to
extract) it is already taking more than two hours.  So if you just
package gcc-13 using a single thread you'd be looking on the order of 20
hours wall clock time, which is unacceptable.

The deassembly implied by the "-d" (which is not the part that has the
superlinear complexity btw, but produces a baseline of 2 hours single
thread runtime all by itself) is also unnecessary to extract just the
filenames of the source files as we throw away the location information
anyway and so I've written a small parser that works on the DWARF dump
instead (which can be produced in linear time with a very small scaling
factor, so practically constant time even for very large executables).
Unfortunately binutils does not yet offer a machine readable format for
these dumps, but parsing the text is not too difficult even though the
format is undocumented.  The DWARF-5 documentation isn't the most
enjoyable read, but it was helpful enough to figure it all out.  I've
also integrated the filtering of unrelated source file information (from
system headers and external libraries).  The end result is the same
runtime as before on small object files, a factor up to 100 speedup for
medium sized object files and speedups in the several thousands range
for large sized ones (or a total single-thread runtime of less than 20
seconds for gcc-13).


Integration into cygport is made configurable via a variable to be set
in .cygportrc for instance in order to easily revert back to the
original objdump invocation if necessary.  I've been producing packages
with that setup for a while now and have not noticed any errors.  In
principle the new parser actually produces more complete output as there
can be multiple line number statements and hence source files per
location, but objdump only lists one of them in the disassembly (at
least sometimes).  In practise I haven't found a package until now where
the final list (after filtering) is different.



if works should not be the default ?
Reducing that time is very interesting for the big stuff

Achim.

python version using "python39=3.9.16-1,python39-devel=3.9.16-1", the 
installer downgrades to 3.9.16-1. But if I run the installer again 
with the same options, it updates to python 3.9.18-1.


Regards,
Daniel



I reset 3.9.18-1 as test, but the propagation will need some time to
be recognized by the Cygwin server and to passed to the mirrors

After that Setup should stop to propose upgrade to 3.9.18



Hi Daniel,

I have not forgot the issue, I can replicate the issue and
running as

$ PYTHONUNBUFFERED=1 PYTHONVERBOSE=1 pip3 install --force 
jenkins_job_builder==5.0.4


it goes a bit further, but at the end stop again

It seems some type of race on 3.9.18 (both -1 and -2, so irrelevant on 
my simple patch trial)


I will see if 3.9.17 has the same issue and after that bisecting until I 
find the upstream change that has problem on Cygwin.


Thanks again for the test case

Regards
Marco

there was a typing mistake in the code of the previous variant.
The new version should be right (I hope)

You should see something like

$ /usr/sbin/alternatives --list
2to3auto/usr/bin/2to3-3.9
automake-docauto/usr/share/info/automake1.9.info.gz
gnuplot auto/usr/bin/gnuplot-X11.exe

sphinx-autogen  auto/usr/bin/sphinx-autogen-3.9
sphinx-buildauto/usr/bin/sphinx-build-3.9
sphinx-quickstart   auto/usr/bin/sphinx-quickstart-3.9

with more variant if other python's are installed

$ /usr/sbin/alternatives --display pip3
pip3 - status is auto.
 link currently points to /usr/bin/pip3.9
/usr/bin/pip3.9 - priority 39
Current `best' version is /usr/bin/pip3.9.

Re: python3-pip obsoleted by python36-pip?

Excerpt from:

This makes no sense -- it selects the full python36 installation at every
update attempt, when I want to keep the latest python installation only.

Am I missing something obvious, or is this a bug? (Obsolete package?)

I don't know how to submit a patch for this, as I can't figure out where
this dependency/obsoletion is managed. (I looked at git://
cygwin.com/git/cygwin-packages/python-pip but it doesn't seem related,
there is no mention of python39 at all)

It seems a package bug.

Hi Emilio,
you are in the right place.

Others have reported similar problems on other python packages

https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2024-January/255273.html
https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2024-January/255267.html

and going back to 3.9,16-1 solved their issue.

Can you confirm that using previous version python 3.9.16-1 you have
no problem ?

The easy way to replace python39 version 3.9.18-1 with version
3.9.16-1 is to select "Sync" at the Package selection window

import hashlib
import threading

t1 = threading.Thread(target=lambda: print("hello"))
t2 = threading.Thread(target=lambda: print("goodbye"))
t1.start()
time.sleep(1)

The interesting thing here is that the `hashlib` import is required. 
Even though that import is not used, the script does not trigger the

Updated: geos-3.12.1-1

[Marco Atzeri via Cygwin-announce]

Version 3.12.1-1 of

   geos 
   libgeos-devel
   libgeos_3_12_1   (C++ lib, SONAME Bump)
   libgeos_c1   (C API)

have been uploaded for cygwin.

GEOS (Geometry Engine - Open Source) is a C++ port of the
Topology Suite (JTS).
As such, it aims to contain the complete functionality of
JTS in C++. This includes all the OpenGIS Simple Features
for SQL spatial predicate functions and spatial operators,
as well as specific JTS enhanced topology functions.

CHANGES
Latest upstream bug fix release
https://github.com/libgeos/geos/releases/tag/3.12.1

NOTES
SONAME bump for C++ interface is a peculiar upstream design decision
https://libgeos.org/usage/cpp_api/

The C++ Library is only used by the C Library that has stable API,
Application should only use the C Interface.

Re: python3 vs. python39 current/test inconsistency

Hi Bruce,
the python3 is almost only a stub to pull python39 in this moment,
so the mismatch should have no impact.

However for uniformity I also declared python3-3.9.18-1 as test

By downgrading libopenblas from 0.3.26-1 to 0.3.25-1, it works again.
Python 3.9.18 behaves same.

This may be related to the issue.

what if you downgrade to 3.9.16 ?


Thank you. Yes, downgrading solves the problem. The issue is probably the same as the one 
reported in "python3 3.9.18-1 hanging".

As I was testing this, I noticed a peculiar thing with the Cygwin Setup. I have a script 
that sets up my Cygwin environment. That scripts calls the installer with a list of 
packages. When I pin the python version using 
"python39=3.9.16-1,python39-devel=3.9.16-1", the installer downgrades to 
3.9.16-1. But if I run the installer again with the same options, it updates to python 
3.9.18-1.

Regards,
Daniel



I reset 3.9.18-1 as test, but the propagation will need some time to
be recognized by the Cygwin server and to passed to the mirrors

After that Setup should stop to propose upgrade to 3.9.18

Regards
Marco

Hi,

Since some time ago (perhaps a week or two), "pip install" occassionally hangs.
Ctrl+C does not work. I have to kill the process via the task manager. I can
reproduce the problem somewhat reliably by running:

The conclusion that these Python developers have come to is that the problem 
started when Cygwin’s python3 package updated to 3.9.18-1. For the moment, they 
have downgraded to 3.9.16-1.

However, I’m letting you know here about the problem, in case you would like to 
find a more permanent solution.

of course as soon I removed from test the problem raised

Hi!

While I was trying to test how fine my package is installed and works, I relied on instructions at 
https://www.cygwin.com/package-server.html. Specifically on "Creating an overlay Cygwin 
package server" section, as it looked like the fastest way to test everything for me. But it 
was a bit complicated to follow all instructions correctly from the first attempt as some things 
there depend on environment setup and there where cross-references inside the guide. So, I've 
written alternative straightforward instruction for "Overlay method":

---
- Install packages: calm, php

- `cd` to directory where you want to build overlay server

- Run:
mkdir -p ./cygwin/{x86_64,x86,noarch}/release

- Copy your built package folder (e.g: pigz-2.8-1.x86_64\dist\pigz) to 
./cygwin/x86_64/release folder

- Run:
mksetupini --arch x86_64 --disable-check 
missing-required-package,missing-depended-package 
--inifile=./cygwin/x86_64/setup.ini --releasearea=./cygwin
cat ./cygwin/x86_64/setup.ini | bzip2 > ./cygwin/x86_64/setup.bz2
cat ./cygwin/x86_64/setup.ini | xz -6e > ./cygwin/x86_64/setup.xz
(Make sure ./cygwin/x86_64/setup.ini contains information about your package)

- Start http server in current dir:
php -S 0.0.0.0:1234


Hi Ihor,
this is superflous.
You can install from local "fake" download

I am using a shortcut to run setup from the local cache directory where 
both the main Mirror and my own tree is located


C:\Download\cygwin_cache\setup-x86_64.exe -X  -O -s 
https://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/ -s 
http://matzeri.altervista.org -R C:\cygwin64 -n -L --local-package-dir 
C:\download\cygwin_cache



- Run normal cygwin installer (with -X flag), select there TWO mirrors:
- http://127.0.0.1:1234/cygwin
- Another your favorite mirror

- Install your package and try how it works

---
It's also attached to this Email.

Maybe there is sense to replace content of "Creating an overlay Cygwin package 
server" section by this manual? Am I writing this Email to correct mailing list?


we always appreciate any improvement to the documentation

OCTAVE-FORGE NOTE
You need to install with setup the specific forge package
you are looking for.

The update of the global pkg database is managed
by cygwin setup during the postinstall phase.
A semaphore system is in place to update the database only when needed
and just one time, also when multiple forge packages are added or removed.

DESCRIPTION
Octave language is "Scientific Programming Language" with:
- Powerful mathematics-oriented syntax with built-in 2D/3D
  plotting and visualization tools
- Drop-in compatible with many Matlab scripts
- Solve systems of equations with linear algebra operations on
  vectors and matrices.
- Visualize data with high-level plot commands in 2D and 3D.

The Octave syntax is largely compatible with Matlab. The Octave
interpreter can be run in GUI mode, as a console, or invoked as
part of a shell script. More Octave examples can be found in the
Octave wiki.

Updated: openblas-0.3.26-1

[Marco Atzeri via Cygwin-announce]

New releases 0.3.26-1 of

   openblas   (source)
   libopenblas(dinamic library)

are available in the Cygwin distribution :

CHANGES
Last upstream release bugfix and performance improvment
https://github.com/xianyi/OpenBLAS/releases


DESCRIPTION
OpenBLAS is an optimized BLAS library based on
GotoBLAS2 1.13 BSD version and further extended.
OpenBLAS is licensed under the 3-clause BSD license.

HOMEPAGE
https://www.openblas.net/

CYGWIN NOTES
1) As BLAS it is around 5-10 times faster than Netlib reference,
   included in the liblapack0 package.

2) No devel package is provided as liblapack-devel already provide
   the needed headers and import.
   Openblas is fully compatible with Netlib BLAS.

3) libopenblas consist of a single file
 /usr/bin/cygblas-0.dll
   that will precede in PATH the liblapack0
 /usr/lib/lapack/cygblas-0.dll
   and used instead. Removing libopenblas will restore the
   usage of Netlib BLAS

4) 64bit CPU architecture covered up to now

Hi Ihor,

bottom post on the cygwin mail lists

I adjusted the file to build also the debugging portion
and to NOT build in the source tree.

Also adjusted the REQUIRES (not DEPENDS) for the build.

please double check

Switching to cygwin-apps as my question is about .cygport file.

Is there any .cygport file that downloads snapshot of repository on
GitHub as source archive?

I'd like to refer to it in order to package latest snapshot of tmux.

Best Regards.

Re: Wrong NTFS permissions

Hi,

I'm facing a really weird issue with NTFS permissions.

$ umask

what is H ?


$ mkdir a

$ ls -ld a

# You can see that permissions are fine.

$ getfacl a
# file: a

# Bogus permissions!

$ getfacl b

Am I missing something, or this is a Cygwin bug?

Cheers,


my guess,
it is related to the remote server as I see as expected

$ cd /cygdrive/z

$ mkdir a

$ getfacl a
# file: a
# owner: Unknown+User
# group: Unix_Group+0
user::rwx
group::rwx

$ cd a
