Building snapd

stralytic · November 6, 2019, 3:31am

I’m trying to build snapd using the redhat spec file at:

snapcore/snapd/blob/master/packaging/fedora/snapd.spec

# With Fedora, nothing is bundled. For everything else, bundling is used.
# To use bundled stuff, use "--with vendorized" on rpmbuild
%if 0%{?fedora}
%bcond_with vendorized
%else
%bcond_without vendorized
%endif

# With Amazon Linux 2+, we're going to provide the /snap symlink by default,
# since classic snaps currently require it... :(
%if 0%{?amzn} >= 2
%bcond_without snap_symlink
%else
%bcond_with snap_symlink
%endif

# A switch to allow building the package with support for testkeys which
# are used for the spread test suite of snapd.
%bcond_with testkeys

This file has been truncated. show original

But I’m getting the following error:

gcc: fatal error: no input files

make: *** [<builtin>: .o] Error 1
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.wcuzgi (%install)

I don’t understand why gcc is being executed. The spec file says:

# Install all systemd and dbus units, and env files
pushd ./data
%make_install BINDIR="%{_bindir}" LIBEXECDIR="%{_libexecdir}" \
              SYSTEMDSYSTEMUNITDIR="%{_unitdir}" \
              SNAP_MOUNT_DIR="%{_sharedstatedir}/snapd/snap" \
              SNAPD_ENVIRONMENT_FILE="%{_sysconfdir}/sysconfig/snapd"
popd

and the makefile in the data directory has:

all install clean:
	$(MAKE) -C systemd $@
	$(MAKE) -C systemd-user $@
	$(MAKE) -C systemd-env $@
	$(MAKE) -C dbus $@
	$(MAKE) -C env $@
	$(MAKE) -C desktop $@

Can anyone please help?

The error log is quite confusing. Is this on rawhide?

Clearlinux actually.

cmatsuoka · November 7, 2019, 5:12pm

There’s a suspicious ' ' at the end of the make install line, perhaps it’s triggering an implicit rule to build a binary called ' '?

I’ll try looking into this then.
