  • [gentoo-user] Ruby, Ragel, and Colm

    From Matthias Hanft@21:1/5 to All on Thu Dec 8 19:00:01 2022
    Hi,

    I just wanted to "emerge ruby" on a new Gentoo server which failed
    at dev-util/ragel-7.0.4 with

    make[3]: *** No rule to make target '/usr/lib64/libfsm.la', needed by 'ragel'. Stop.

    (immediately before, dev-util/colm-0.14.7-r2 was installed successfully)

    I already have found https://bugs.gentoo.org/766210 and https://bugs.gentoo.org/766051
    both "resolved fixed" - but apparently not?!

    With ">=dev-util/ragel-7.0.1" in package.mask, ragel 7.0.0.12 and colm 0.13.0.7 are
    correctly installed. But I'm afraid that this won't be a solution forever...

    Even more bizarre: On another Gentoo system I'm running for a long time, ragel 7.0.4
    and colm 0.14.7-r2 *are* correctly installed - but I've no idea any more how I achieved
    this a very long time ago.

    I hesitate to open a new Gentoo Bugzilla bug because it might not be a real bug -
    but what do I have to do on my new system that ruby (and all dependencies) can be installed?

    Thanks in advance,

    -Matt

    You shouldn't be afraid to open a bug, doing so has the advantage that
    other people can "easily" find it if they're experiencing a similar
    problem.

    That said, try the ~arch version of ragel. It has a patch that improves
    linking against libfsm, which appears in your error message.

    I also had (I mean I still have the server, but I had it when it was
    ruby-free, too.) a server, not new but previously Ruby-free, so I tried
    to emerge it. No errors.

    Do you have any packages (or the global) keyword ~amd64? Portage,
    fresh off of a sync, emerged ragel at 7.0.4 and col at 0.14.7 which are
    both lower than the versions you mentioned.

    Thanks, ~ragel-7.0.4-r2 did work.

    (Still not knowing why the other server worked without any problems
    with 7.0.4 without -r2 - but anyway...)

    No ~amd64 (except dev-db/firebird because there is no stable
    version at all).

    colm-0.14.7-r2 is marked stable; with ragel-7.0.4, I get the
    error desscribed. ~ragel-7.0.4-r2 does work; didn't try
    ~ragel-7.0.4-r1.

    But "works for me" now :-)
