Bug 876520 – dev-qt/qtwebengine: needs patch to build on musl with Clang (QtWebEngineCore module will not be built. A suitable version >= 2.27 of libc required to build QtWebEngine could not be found.)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jan Koester 2022-10-10 14:38:24 UTC]

to build the qtwebengine under musl + clang version of gentoo i need the following patch, it will be nice when it's going upstream it's from alpine linux but solve also my build issues.

git.alpinelinux.org/aports/plain/community/qt5-qtwebengine/remove-glibc-check.patch

[Comment 1 Sam James 2022-10-10 14:40:12 UTC]

Please share the full build.log & emerge --info of failure without it, thanks.

WARNING: A suitable version >= 2.27 of libc required to build QtWebEngine could not be found.

WARNING: QtWebEngine will not be built.

Qt is now configured for building. Just run 'make'.
Once everything is built, you must run 'make install'.
Qt will be installed into '/usr'.

Prior to reconfiguration, make sure you remove any leftovers from
the previous build.

Thanks. In future, please attach rather than paste, but no big deal.

>QtWebEngineCore module will not be built. A suitable version >= 2.27 of libc required to build QtWebEngine could not be found.

ernsteiswuerfel hit this in bug 757327 but the cause there was different for the original but, although ernsteiswuerfel's comment was indeed wrt musl.

Sam IIRC didn't Catcream's PR include a patch for this? Know what happened to that? Was it merged?

    dev-qt/qtwebengine: refactor qt6 ebuild, various fixes incl. musl
    
    Essentially a rewrite, so only have a not exhaustive summary
    of changes rather than split commits.
    
    Bugs addressed:
    * respect *FLAGS wrt bug #652172 (fwics should be no issues left)
    * hopefully fixed musl/libcxx (tested with llvm-musl) wrt bug #876520
    (not planning to review Qt5's myself, so no changes on that end)
    
    IUSE changes:
    * enable alsa by default, finding that you have no audio options
      only after building is not great and alsa is cheap
    * enable widgets by default, needed by both falkon and qutebrowser
    * add custom-cflags, if going to use *FLAGS then should strip-flags
      like chromium's ebuild
    * add opengl, unfortunately littered in QT_CONFIG(opengl) and need
      qtbase[opengl=] to avoid ABI/automagic issues
    * add vulkan, has its own feature so should only need qtbase[vulkan?]
    * add qml similarly to other packages
    
    Misc:
    * support EXTRA_GN like qtwebengine:5 and chromium (Gentoo-specific)
    * build dir went from >9GB to ~6.3GB by dropping -g1
    * drop estack+extglob, setting extglob is technically not needed for
      use in bash [[ ]] tests which is-flagq does
    * drop INCLUDEPATH, tried to sed qmake files but this is using cmake
    * respect NINJA env var to allow samu (NINJA_PATH was a no-op)
    * use get_NINJAOPTS for NINJAFLAGS and ignore environment (NINJAOPTS
      is the var to set for this, while NINJAFLAGS is a private
      qtwebengine var, ninja does not actually use this directly)
    * drop icu's bundling check for simplicity (and consistency with other
      system libraries), bug #630834 prompted adding this but does not
      seem so fragile anymore (plus iwdevtools would report lib misuse,
      albeit not headers)
    * switch to bundled re2 to be spared headaches (see github PR#32281)
    * optfeature on chrome-binary-plugins for widevine support
    * cleanup/reduce QT_FEATURE and old comments
    * fix designer automagic
    * various dependencies adjustments, wrt re2c that is only needed if
      we build ninja
    * do not redefine _FORTIFY_SOURCE (use gentoo's defaults), upstream
      actually switched to =3 in chromium-118 (albeit only for ChromeOS)
      and "hopefully" is fine for this older version (tests pass at least)
    
    Also moved patches to a tarball (like qt5). It is simple small patches
    mostly adjusting macros rather than add actual code, but was beginning
    to add up.
    
    Considered reducing RAM requirements a little bit (generally *seems*
    not so bad), but there is rather bad spikes and I do not think it can
    be considered safe unless we assume everyone is not using RAM for
    anything else. Plus usage will likely keep growing with versions.
