List of formula missing Linux bottles

[danielnachun]

This should now be a complete list of all remaining formulae missing Linux bottles which are not deprecated, disabled or macOS-only. Please feel free to ask for clarifications about the my explanations I have given.

These formulae currently have a bottle in linuxbrew-core, but not one here. There are no differences between the formulae in the two cores, so these likely need some additional fix to work on Linux that wasn't needed the last time they were bottled in linuxbrew-core.

Needs PR

Build Failure

• cubeb - needs to make a release: Request to start tagging releases mozilla/cubeb#666
• getmail - Error: Too many redirects (max = 25) - will be disabled because it depends on Python 2
• libgr - fails to link qhull because it tries to use static qhull but is itelf dynamically linked - uses static qhull because it depends on a deprecated API not available in the shared library
• libpointing - downloads a macOS-specific source archive; when building on Linux it requires qmake from qt@5 and make install produces an empty installation - may also need a Python 2 script to generate proper Makefile
• mono - msbuild fails to build
• nxengine - The formula copies a system font on macOS into the cellar - a substitute font will be needed on Linux.
• openj9 - EOFError: End of file reached - this appears to append while calling the patchelf gem during keg relocation - needs a closer look.
• rancid - error: can't figure out how to pass count == 1 to ping
• shtools - libtool invocation for linking does not work on Linux
• syck - .y files seem to be too old for bison - error: conflicting types for ‘syckparse’
• txr - txr binary segfaults during build

Vendored dependencies

• aacgain - fails because it tries to build old, vendored versions of mp4v2, faad, and mp3gain.
• code-server - fails linkage audit because of a musl-linked binary; also needs to build node-argon2 from source because the pre-built binary needs a newer glibc, but the build fails.
• falcon - error: conflicting declaration ‘typedef long long int int64_t’ - contains an old vendered copy of mongo-c-driver
• montage - probably missing an #include <string.h> in ccalc.c: ccalc.c:28:7: error: expected identifier or ‘(’ before ‘__extension__’ char *strdup(const char *s1); - this problem is fixed in montage 6.0, but it now fails on macOS because it installs vendored dependencies - these only work on Linux because we use RPATH instead of install names.
• openmodelica - tries to install vendored copy of zeromq it later fails to find: file INSTALL cannot find /tmp/openmodelica-20220411-17127-197f2n5/OMCompiler/3rdParty/libzmq/build/lib/libzmq.so.4.2.3: No such file or directory.

Test failure

• buildapp - Can't find sbcl.core
• cafeobj - Can't find sbcl.core
• clfft - test binary segfaults, possibly because it cannot find OpenCL device
• dynare - test seems to indicate Linux bottle is broken - will need to follow up with upstream.
• fanyi - Minitest::Assertion: Expected: 0, Actual: 1 - might be due to missing Chinese language locale (i.e. zh_cn)
• gel - test times out
• git-url-sub - test fails because of BSD-specific code
• gopass - Minitest::Assertion: Expected: 0, Actual: nil - only fails in CI, probably because of a patchelf.rb bug.
• ios-webkit-debug-proxy - upstream says Linux is supported - test fails due to network error: url: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 35707: Connection refused
• libbi - test hangs indefinitely
• libbpg - bpgenc binary segfaults
• libdrawtext - uses a macOS system font which needs a substitute on Linux
• nq - Minitest::Assertion: Expected /exited\ with\ status\ 0/ to match "==> ,18103a44a7b.4542\nexec /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/Cellar/nq/0.5/bin/nq touch TEST\n\n". - only fails in CI
• nrpe - TypeError: no implicit conversion from nil to integer
• oil - test fails because patchelf.rb bug that breaks binary
• pbc - pbc binary segfaults
• pla - upstream URL doesn't work anymore
• py-spy - wants to run test as root
• safe-rm - /bin/rm: missing operand
• showkey - test hangs indefinitely
• snapcast - might be failing because avahi needs root to work
• snappystream - test seems to fail because output is blank
• sync_gateway - needs to be updated to 3.0.0, but test fails: 2022/05/29 13:10:48 Couldn't start Sync Gateway: 2 errors: a server must be provided in the Bootstrap configuration Must use secure scheme in Couchbase Server URL, or opt out by setting bootstrap.use_tls_server to false. Current URL:
• vgrep - Minitest::Assertion: Expected: 0 Actual: nil

Unbottled dependency

• bsdiff - neesd bsdmake, but can be patched to work without it: https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-community/blob/packages/bsdiff/trunk/Makefile.patch
• cfv - python2
• claws-mail - libetpan
• gopass-jsonapi - gopass
• wiiuse - bluez - bluez seems to need glibc >= 2.25
• pbc-sig - pbc
• pgloader - buildapp
• scriptcs - mono
• viewvc - python2

Possibly macOS-only

• iblinter - error: unable to load standard library for target 'x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu' - Swift formula
• plank - <unknown>:0: error: unable to load standard library for target 'x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu' - Swift formula
• xcprojectlint - seems to be incompatible with Swift 5.5+: error: value of type '(@escaping (Result<T, ErrorType>) -> Void) -> Void' has no member 'dematerialize'
• sourcedocs - SourceKittenFramework/library_wrapper.swift:31: Fatal error: Loading libsourcekitdInProc.so failed - Swift formula
• weaver - error: cannot find 'fputs' in scope - Swift formula
• ospray - embree must be build with SSE4.1 support, but Linux is set to core2.

• icbirc - requires bsdmake, appears to be a BSD program
• proctools - requires bsdmake, appears to be a BSD program

Temporarily debottled

• qt-postgresql - affected by a larger problem with Qt plugins
• qt - broken relocation
• qmmp - needs qt
• mkvtoolnix - needs qt

• supermodel - Src/Sound/MPEG/audio.cpp:193:16: error: reference to ‘data’ is ambiguous

Fixed

• aida-header - upstream FTP URL times out - the web interface to the CVS repository also returns a 404. This should probably be deprecated. aida-header: deprecate #98174

• cryfs
• curlftpfs
• daemontools
• dafny - mono
• dbxml - build failure - The initial failure was it could not find a valid BerkeleyDB tree even though we specify the path to the berkeley-db optdir. It uses the static library names to figure out the version of BerkeleyDB and I broke this when I removed the static libraries for berkeleydb to reduce size. This was easy to fix as we already had an inreplace to change the .la extension to .a, which changed so that it looks for .so instead. Fixing that revealed a second, unrelated problem. The configure script will fail if it thinks there is more than one version of BerkeleyDB installed, and in our current get we have libdb-18.1.so and a symlink to it called libdb-18.so. Unfortunately dbxml interprets this as meaning multiple versions of the BerkeleyDB are installed when in reality it is just one. This is easy enough for us to fix with inreplace, but should probably be upstreamed. -- dbxml: workaround to use berkeley-db dynamic libs #100471

[github-actions]

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs.

[SMillerDev]

@danielnachun do you want to update the list or should we just work through missing bottles on a case-by-case basis?

[danielnachun]

I’m going to post a update for this with the final list of ~160 unbottled formulae which were not what I considered to be “low hanging fruit”. I just need to work out the formatting right.

[chenrui333]

Per PR discussions, we should include another two formulae in here:

• oil
• bazel

[BrewTestBot]

❌ @Moisan bottle request for cafeobj failed.

[MikeMcQuaid]

This issue seems to be stale at this point.
