Tracking Ventura bottling issues for top-usage formulas

[fxcoudert]

The idea of this issue is to track and solve the build issues for macOS Ventura on our most used formulas. We already have an issue where all bottling failures are reported (#113717), this one is to keep an eye on the most important formulas (top 1500 in analytics). This top post can be edited with a short summary of current status, while our efforts and discussion of each formula can take place below.

---

Fail on both ARM and Intel

• r (https://bugs.r-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18426) r: patch for Ventura #116998
• ncdu (zig errors; different one on Intel and ARM) (https://code.blicky.net/yorhel/ncdu/issues/213) - ncdu 2.2.2 #121034
• gtk-vnc (and therefore virt-manager): https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk-vnc/-/issues/21 - gtk-vnc 1.3.1 #116964
• swiftgen - (upstream issue, [homebrew] swiftgen build issue, not finding xcode SwiftGen/SwiftGen#1030)
• octant: npm ERR! Invalid Version: ^3.0.8 - octant: work around build error #117430
• xapian
• notmuch, mu ... all depend on xapian
• sdl_sound (Libraries were compiled with a flat namespace): dosbox sdl_net sdl_sound: deprecate #123161 deprecated

Fail on ARM only

• ghc (https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/21964)
• git-annex, pandoc, cabal-install, jupyterlab, exa, shellcheck, hadolint… all depend on ghc
• mono
• btop (console-related test error; program builds and runs fine locally)
• bazel (Darwin ARM64 prebuilt binaries for java_tools are not compatible (ijar bad CPU type) bazelbuild/bazel#13944)
• hashcat
• haskell-stack
• ipmitool ipmitool: fix for ARM #117205
• nb

Fail on Intel only

• pyqt@5 pyqt@5: update for sip #117149
• vtk, opencv, octave, qscintilla2, … all depend on pyqt@5
• poetry
• mono (mono 6.12.0.182 fails to build on macOS Ventura mono/mono#21567) mono: patch for Ventura #117052
• vault - vault 1.12.2 #117298
• ruby@2.7
• upx UPX compressed arm64/amd64/x86_64 executable crashes on macOS Ventura 13.0 upx/upx#612
• volk
• gnuradio
• meilisearch
• pcl

Updated list with some upstream issues and related Homebrew PRs. Additional comments:

• octant and vault probably need node downgrade. EDIT: octant actually needs npm downgrade
• pyqt@5 inreplace may need to match sip python version
• hashcat seems to build even though ephemeral ARM doesn't have OpenCL support. If the resulting bottle does work on local machines, could just skip the test.

• swiftgen - Xcode version requirement ~> 13.0 means it can only build with Xcode 13. May be intentional to avoid major version changes? One option is to just modify Rakefile logic to allow Xcode 14+. Otherwise, this formula will only work on 1-2 versions of macOS at a time.
• volk - trying to bottle again as failure was due to a missing dependency (maybe cpu_features). It looks like everything is bottled now.
• xapian - should be able to bottle now.
• bazel - seems like an x86_64 binary is used at some point so may not work without Rosetta. Could be better on development releases (v6 / v7) as there are some commits relating to adding universal binaries, but might still be a problem as upstream issue is open.

• failed an issue for hashcat, hashcat failed to run in apple m1 hashcat/hashcat#3525 (I can not run the test in my local.)

ncdu may be blocked until new release as it currently needs zig 0.9 to build but support for Ventura was added in zig 0.10. Could try applying commits from upstream's zig-0.10 branch but upstream issue mentions there is noticeable performance degradation.

EDIT: actually we are using -Drelease-fast=true so we might not hit performance issue seen with ReleaseSafe build.
