Chromium's depot_tools do not work on FreeBSD which causes the build of v8 6.2+ to fail #253

ignisf · 2017-12-13T12:46:47Z

At this point there is no upstream support for building V8 on FreeBSD.

Are there any plans to fix latest libv8 versions under FreeBSD?

angeloudy · 2018-06-27T02:48:11Z

Having the same issue when trying to install libv8 6.3

angeloudy · 2018-06-27T04:30:27Z

There are no binary gems for freebsd after version 6.0.

ignisf · 2018-06-27T08:36:05Z

Hello,

Upstream's GYP build system does not seem to be validated against FreeBSD which is causing trouble here. I'm in the works of packaging v8 6.7. Will see if I can resume FreeBSD binary production with it. Apart from that, if you're able to make V8's build scripts work, I am willing to accept patches.

ignisf · 2018-06-27T12:39:28Z

I've opened an issue with the V8 project: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=857057. Additionally this troubling issue exists: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/v8/issues/detail?id=6676

sevospl · 2019-06-22T15:58:02Z

It's already 2019 and we still don't have libv8 for FreeBSD.

Could anyone build the newest version for FreeBSD, please? Still haven't managed to do this.

ignisf · 2019-08-07T16:06:25Z

@sevospl, https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=857057#c7

GremL1N · 2019-10-11T06:29:41Z

so badly

GremL1N · 2019-10-11T06:44:13Z

In FreeBSD there is port to build v8. (lang/v8). Can we use it in some way?

ignisf · 2019-10-11T06:56:35Z

as far as I can tell the port there is of version 3.18 so unfortunately no

tarkhil · 2020-12-13T15:48:52Z

In FreeBSD there is port to build v8. (lang/v8). Can we use it in some way?

Yes, but no.

Building of libv8 depends heavily on google depot_tools, and Google has much less than no interest in supporting FreeBSD.

I'm currently fighting that overwindowish thing, with lots of well-hidden downloads of precompiled binaries without any clue on sources or even specs. Looks like I'll have to try to cut off all that "automation" and step-by-step fill everything manually, than think on depot_tools rewriting from scratch.

I do wonder: they have time, human resource and money for Code of Conduct, to put out all possibly offensive jokes, words and so on; at the same time, they do deprive me of using my favorite OS just becaues (disabled by CoC fword) you, that's why! - and feel comfortable with it...

oklas · 2021-06-24T09:10:36Z

Currently port lang/v8 version 9.0 is available.

lloeki · 2023-12-04T12:04:13Z

Closing as this issue is completely sidestepped in libv8-node.
