>Description:
pkg_comp uses (allows for the use of) libkver to allow
packages to be built for aystem version that is not
identical to the kernel actually running (great feature!)
Most of the time this works just fine (it certainly
works fine for building most packages - a few tha use
linux compat mode fail, there's another PR about that).
Howwever, when using "pkg_comp chroot" the results are
not consistent.
>How-To-Repeat:
As follows. First, include
NETBSD_RELEASE=3.0
(or something like that in your $HOME/pkg_comp/default.conf
- if you don't use default.condf then add the necessary -c
options to the commands below). You should not be running the
same kernel version as the one given as NETBSD_RELEASE
Then
pkg_comp makeroot
And, the bit that shows it, which I will cut/paste ...
jade# pkg_comp chroot
PKG_COMP ==> Mounting sandboxed filesystems
PKG_COMP ==> Entering sandbox `/local/pkg_comp/default'
pkg_comp:default.conf# uname -a
NetBSD jade.coe.psu.ac.th 3.0 NetBSD 3.0 (LIBKVER) #0: Tue Jan 19 00:00:00 UTC
2038 root@localhost:/sys/arch/i386/compile/LIBKVER i386
pkg_comp:default.conf# exit
PKG_COMP ==> Unmounting sandboxed filesystems
jade# pkg_comp chroot uname -a
PKG_COMP ==> Mounting sandboxed filesystems
PKG_COMP ==> Entering sandbox `/local/pkg_comp/default'
NetBSD jade.coe.psu.ac.th 3.99.15 NetBSD 3.99.15 (GENERIC-1.696-20060125) #8:
Wed Jan 25 04:59:39 ICT 2006
kre%jade.coe.psu.ac.th@localhost:/usr/obj/current/kernels/JADE_ASUS i386
PKG_COMP ==> Unmounting sandboxed filesystems
Notice that with just "pkg_comp chroot" libkver is
being used as intended, but with pkg_comp chroot command
it does not.
This is particularly relevant with things like
pkg_comp chroot lintpkgsrc -p
(or other similar lintpkgsrc options), as that then
always finds packages like devel/p5-perk-headers to
be out of date (as the package has the kernel version
embedded into it - it always builds as 3.0 using libkver,
but then is checked iwth the real kernel version visible)
>Fix:
Scatter more uses of LD_PRELOAD around.
