[SOLVED] How to build rust 1.67.1 on a system based on Slackware64-15.0?

Didier Spaier · 03-23-2023, 12:50 PM

I tried to build from the source files in: http://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackwa...source/d/rust/ and failed. Here is the build log:

Code:

Hmm...  Looks like a unified diff to me...

I never tried to build rust before. Any clue appreciated.

If you're not already running the specified version of the rust compiler that's able to build rust 1.67.1, then your best bet is to run the bottom part of rust.url (everything below the "exit 0") to download the bootstrap compiler from upstream. Then try running the SlackBuild again.

Hi Didier,

Download the 3 pkg (x86_64 BOOTSTRAP) a the end of rust.url
and
build rust

If the bootstrap packages are present, LOCAL_BOOTSTRAP=yes is automatic.

SBO has a rust package for 15.0 which will build: 15.0 > Development > rust16 (1.67.1)
Worked for me.

yep, I corrected
Anyway, you beat me to it

Didier Spaier · 03-23-2023, 03:01 PM

Thanks Patrick and marav and also Alley Trotter, building now. Will mark this thread as [SOLVED] when built.

Didier Spaier · 03-23-2023, 03:33 PM

Successfully built. Now I can try again to build odilia: https://github.com/odilia-app/odilia/issues/111

I know this is already marked [SOLVED], but are you aware of https://slackbuilds.org/repository/1...pment/rust16/?

Yes, already mentioned by Alley Trotter, thanks anyway.

Maybe off topic, but building odilia software failed with a strange error:

(signal: 11, SIGSEGV: invalid memory reference)

I know it's beta software but I would really try this new screen reader.

From the log file on the GitHub issue:

Quote:

...
/usr/lib64/librustc_driver-88df3683475b2000.so(+0x702b73)[0x7fdf2cf02b73]
/lib64/libc.so.6(+0x3b8d0)[0x7fdf2c4948d0]
/usr/lib64/libLLVMCore.so.13(_ZN4llvm11PointerType3getEPNS_4TypeEj+0x14)[0x7fdf29244204]
...

I've seen this error before, and it seems to be related to an LLVM version mismatch. The workaround is to use a rust build with a bundled LLVM library. Any one of the following should work:

Rebuild rust with SYSTEM_LLVM=NO
Install rust16 from SBo and use the export statements in the README file
Build rustup from SBo; install a 1.65+ stable toolchain and use that

EDIT: rust-1.68.1 (now in /testing) doesn't appear to have this problem, at least when building on -current.

This did the trick and now odilia speaks to me, thanks!
