Cannot build from source

[lechuckcaptain]

I'm trying to build from source the project following the instructions in the README file but I have several issues.

Building from source
Install Xcode 12.2+ and run sudo xcode-select -s <path to Xcode>
Install cmake
Checkout the latest release of zld from master
Run make clean && make

I attached in the following gist the log files. It seems that running the command make clean && make the compilation fails for some missing dependency library. If I run make again without cleaning the compilation makes some steps again but fails without finding corecrypto dependencies (that gets deleted on the clean, is it correct?).

I also tried to reset the repo, and run only the make command without any clean. I gets at first the same error of missing some dependency library, but on the second make I get a different error this time. Please find some info in this second gist:

Do you have any idea what could be the issue?

[michaeleisel]

what macos version are you on?

[lechuckcaptain]

Sorry for that, I forgot to write those details. I'm running macOS Big Sur 11.2.3 and selected Xcode 12.4.0

/Applications/Xcode-12.4.0.app/Contents/Developer

i see now, fixed in 788f449

[lechuckcaptain]

I confirm that 788f449 does fixes the issue related to missing corecrypto dependency. Still not able to compile for the same error reported above. On the first make I get the following error:

If I try to re run the make I get a different error, but probably related to the first one that's failed.

That -L/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/lib is odd, I'm not sure where that's coming from. When I grep through the repo, even post-build, I don't see openssl outside of the misc/ dir. Are you doing a git clean -dfx before trying? And how is this openssl term being inserted?

Also, what is your use-case for building rather than downloading a pre-built binary?

[lechuckcaptain]

It was related to a homebrew suggestion after the install of openssl library. Adding the following environment variables made the build fail in some way.

LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/lib
CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/include
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/lib/pkgconfig

Anyway thanks to your answer I managed to try to remove them and the build worked flawlessly.

To answer your second question, the issue of the pre-built binary is that it cannot be easily installed on CI setup without having super user rights, in order to circumvent Apple Gatekeeper and quarantine (but maybe there is a better solution also to that).

That's the script I was running locally at the moment, that is requiring super user rights:

rm -rf /tmp/zld; mkdir /tmp/zld; cd /tmp/zld
wget -c https://github.com/michaeleisel/zld/releases/download/1.3.0/zld.tar.gz
tar -xzvf zld.tar.gz
cp zld /usr/local/bin
sudo spctl --add --label "zld" /usr/local/bin/zld
sudo spctl --enable --label "zld"
xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /usr/local/bin/zld 
rm -rf /tmp/zld
