Dear maintainer, latest stable release is 1.9.3, as stated here: https://julialang.org/downloads/ A version bump would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance, have a great day
I wonder if julia's lib lookup for ffi is still broken with that release. See also: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/49574
Hi, I've tried to make the ebuild for 1.9.0 works for 1.9.4. The 2 main issues I've encountered are: 1. When building their patched (?) version of LLVM, it wants to install into /usr/lib64/ocaml/llvm and install fails due to sandbox access violation: bindings/ocaml/cmake_install.cmake:47 (include) cmake_install.cmake:76 (include) * ACCESS DENIED: unlink: /usr/lib64/ocaml/llvm/llvm.mli * ACCESS DENIED: open_wr: /usr/lib64/ocaml/llvm/llvm.mli * ACCESS DENIED: unlink: /usr/lib64/ocaml/llvm/llvm.mli * ACCESS DENIED: fopen_wr: /usr/lib64/ocaml/llvm/llvm.mli CMake Error at bindings/ocaml/llvm/cmake_install.cmake:54 (file): file INSTALL cannot copy file To bypass this issue, I ran "make" into the work directory as I could not figure out to solve this. 2. In building lib/sys.i, it looks like it cannot find libjulia.so and libjulia-internal.so as it expects them to be in usr/lib64 but are actually in usr/lib. I've created a symlink. With those steps, I managed to get a binary (untested as I don't know to install it properly). The ebuild is attached (openblas is now a dependency) if that can help. Thanks,
Created attachment 879507 [details] 1.9.4 (requires 2 major changes).

Created attachment 879652 [details] 1.9.4.0 : compiles but do not install
Created attachment 879655 [details, diff] 1.9.4 : build and install with new patch
Thanks for your help. Using your patch for ocaml and a symlink usr/lib64 -> usr/lib, julia compiles fine. Installation fails due to string_replace on ${RELEASE_TARGET}, apparently due to string escaping so I've added a patch to fix that. I'm not sure if those fixes are up to the standard of Gentoo, nor why there are needed as the source code builds fine outside portage. Neverthelesse, the final ebuild builds and install on amd64.
Alexis Praga, can you create PR on GitHub so it can be easier reviewed?
The PR is available here for review : https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/34314 . Thanks,
