Bug 689234 – bootstrap-prefix.sh: bootstrap fails on Darwin because all versions of cmake are masked

• Product: Gentoo/Alt
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Guilherme Amadio 2019-07-04 09:02:14 UTC]

USE=-acl -berkdb -fortran -gdbm -git -libcxx -nls -pcre -ssl -python bootstrap clang internal-glib PKG=dev-util/cmake

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

[ebuild  N    #] dev-util/cmake-3.14.5::gentoo_prefix  USE="ncurses -doc -emacs -qt5 -system-jsoncpp -test" 8,648 KiB

Total: 1 package (1 new), Size of downloads: 8,648 KiB

The following mask changes are necessary to proceed:
 (see "package.unmask" in the portage(5) man page for more details)
# required by dev-util/cmake (argument)
# /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/contrib/gentoo/macos/var/db/repos/gentoo/profiles/prefix/darwin/macos/package.mask:
# Fabian Groffen <[e-mail]> (2019-03-22)
# Newer versions break because they insist on sysroot usage lacking
# -lSystem as looked for by clang/llvm.  If your system got this
# package, you have to emerge -C cmake and re-emerge it.
=dev-util/cmake-3.14.5

The mask in full is:
# Fabian Groffen <[e-mail]> (2019-03-22)
# Newer versions break because they insist on sysroot usage lacking
# -lSystem as looked for by clang/llvm.  If your system got this
# package, you have to emerge -C cmake and re-emerge it.
>dev-util/cmake-3.13.4

and the tree has only cmake 3.14.3 and up.

    profiles/prefix/darwin/macos/package.mask: update mask for CMake
    
    After a while, this mask started masking all available versions
    of CMake. Upon request, CMake 3.14.5 has been added back to the
    tree, to allow bootstrapping on Darwin again, therefore the mask
    update.

[Comment 3 Andreas Sturmlechner 2020-07-22 21:54:46 UTC]

Is that mask still necessary? We cannot keep this forever and upstream projects will move on to higher minimum version requirements eventually.

[Comment 4 Fabian Groffen 2020-07-24 14:47:11 UTC]

as far as I know there were no improvements to cmake, so we need the older version still
