Description Johannes Geiss 2021-10-01 07:22:02 UTC
Crossdev creates a make.conf file with ROOT="/usr/${CHOST}/".
So far, so good. But some packages like media-fonts/encodings or media-fonts/font-alias install some files
(not all) into /usr/CHOST/usr/CHOST instead of /usr/CHOST.

This happens if font-util is installed, first.
Comment 1 Johannes Geiss 2021-10-01 07:22:27 UTC
Example (reproduced in Docker, but can be reproduced without it):

1. docker pull gentoo/stage3
2. docker tag gentoo/stage3:latest gentoo/stage3:2021-09
3. docker rmi gentoo/stage3:latest
4. docker run --name $USER.gentoo-session -w /root -tiv /var/db/repos/gentoo:/var/db/repos/gentoo -v $PWD:/mnt gentoo/stage3:2021-09
5. mkdir -p /etc/portage/repos.conf
6. cat >/etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf <<EOF
[DEFAULT]
main-repo = gentoo

[gentoo]
location = /var/db/repos/gentoo
sync-type = rsync
sync-uri = rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage
auto-sync = yes
sync-rsync-verify-jobs = 1
sync-rsync-verify-metamanifest = yes
sync-rsync-verify-max-age = 24
sync-openpgp-key-path = /usr/share/openpgp-keys/gentoo-release.asc
sync-openpgp-key-refresh-retry-count = 40
sync-openpgp-key-refresh-retry-overall-timeout = 1200
sync-openpgp-key-refresh-retry-delay-exp-base = 2
sync-openpgp-key-refresh-retry-delay-max = 60
sync-openpgp-key-refresh-retry-delay-mult = 4
priority = 20
EOF

7. chmod 0644 /etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf
8. emerge -v crossdev
9. mkdir -p /var/db/repos/private-overlay/{profiles,metadata}
10. echo "private-overlay" >/var/db/repos/private-overlay/profiles/repo_name
11. echo "masters = gentoo" >/var/db/repos/private-overlay/metadata/layout.conf
12. echo "thin-manifests = true" >>/var/db/repos/private-overlay/metadata/layout.conf
13. chown -R portage:portage /var/db/repos/private-overlay/{profiles,metadata}
14. echo "[private-overlay]" >/etc/portage/repos.conf/private.conf
15. echo "location = /var/db/repos/private-overlay" >>/etc/portage/repos.conf/private.conf
16. echo "priority = 10" >>/etc/portage/repos.conf/private.conf
17. echo "masters = gentoo" >>/etc/portage/repos.conf/private.conf
18. echo "auto-sync = no" >>/etc/portage/repos.conf/private.conf
19. export CT=arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi
20. crossdev --stable -oS gentoo -oO /var/db/repos/private-overlay --target $CT

Installing font-util causes the problem:
21. $CT-emerge -av font-util

22. $CT-emerge -av encodings

Comment 5 Ionen Wolkens gentoo-dev 2021-10-01 08:02:43 UTC
For encodings this seems to be where this goes wrong:

        Checking for root directory for font files... /usr/aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu/usr/share/fonts

        # if --with-fontrootdir not specified...
        if test "x${FONTROOTDIR}" = "x"; then
                FONTROOTDIR=`$PKG_CONFIG --variable=fontrootdir fontutil`
        fi
        # ...and if pkg-config didn't find fontdir in fontutil.pc...
        if test "x${FONTROOTDIR}" = "x"; then
                FONTROOTDIR="${datadir}/fonts/X11"
        fi

With font-util in EROOT:
$ aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu-pkg-config --variable=fontrootdir fontutil
/usr/aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu/usr/share/fonts
$ PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR=/dummy aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu-pkg-config --variable=fontrootdir fontutil
/usr/share/fonts

That's not in the .pc file itself, pkg-config is adding SYSROOT. This isn't necessarily wrong (aka SYSROOT used for building, need to find files at build time), but when looking for install paths or runtime paths through variables that's not going to work.

Which leaves me with no idea what would be a "proper" fix to this given we don't know what the pkg-config variables are used for.

I reached the same conclusion. I think we will just have to apply fixes based on how the variables are used in context, as I did in bug 815520.

Sorry, I meant to reference bug 813639.
Comment 8 Mike Gilbert gentoo-dev 2021-10-01 15:06:40 UTC
Perhaps xorg-3.eclass should be adjusted to pass --with-fontrootdir to configure.

    xorg-3.eclass: pass --with-fontrootdir to configure
    
    The XORG_FONTROOTDIR autoconf macro calls pkg-config to obtain the
    fontrootdir path defined in fontutil.pc.
    
    pkgconf automatically prepends SYSROOT to variable values that start
    with a "/". For installation paths, we don't want SYSROOT prepended.
    
    Passing --with-fontrootdir bypasses the pkg-config call and avoids the
    problem with SYSROOT.
