Unable to reference @bazel_tools//src/main/protobuf targets #8738

Bazel needs to embed a custom |
any eta on when this could be solved? |
I'm going to take a crack at this this week. Would appreciate some suggestions for and from potential reviewers to nail down a few details:
|
@beasleyr-vmw any progress on this? |
@bartle-stripe Thanks for the reminder. I put out a patch as a PR that we've used since February. It might give you something to work with if you build Bazel from source. |
I'm closing this issue since 0.26.0 is beyond its supported lifecycle. Please use a more recent version of Bazel, which should not suffer from this problem. |
Description of the problem / feature request:
I am unable to use Bazel's protobuf targets and sources---specifically extra_action_base_java_proto---directly from
@bazel_tools//src/main/protobuf
because of an unsatisfied dependency on@bazel_tools//tools/build_rules:genproto.bzl
.As a workaround, in order to use extra actions, my project's WORKSPACE needs to refer to and clone Bazel's source via git_repository. Cloning the full repository is slow, and needing to rev the SHA1 each time we upgrade Bazel is a pain.
Bugs: what's the simplest, easiest way to reproduce this bug? Please provide a minimal example if possible.
What operating system are you running Bazel on?
What's the output of
bazel info release
?release 0.26.0+vmware
