Subject: Investigating Cirrus CI FreeBSD failures
Date: Fri, 20 May 2022 20:38:53 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9cc31276-ab78-fa8a-9fb4-b19266911211@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I spent a bit of time investigating the Git Cirrus-CI failures on FreeBSD.
It seems something goes wrong with the Perl installation, as most failures 
are in t9001-send-email.sh, and the error messages are:

ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.32/mach/CORE/libperl.so.5.32: Undefined symbol "strerror_l@FBSD_1.6"

The first instance is in t9001.6. (See for example [1]).

I know next to nothing about Perl or FreeBSD, but simply changing our image
to FreeBSD 13.0 makes all failures in t9001 disappear [2]:


diff --git a/.cirrus.yml b/.cirrus.yml
index 0d94d89f6c..d1ea14362f 100644

   install_script:

Is this something that we should do ? Or should we stick to FreeBSD 12
and try to debug this installation problem ?

Cheers,
Philippe.
