Build error on macOS, tag v26.0 builds fine

mjdietzx commented at 8:19 pm on January 21, 2024: contributor

Is there an existing issue for this?

I have searched the existing issues

Current behaviour

I can’t build master on macOS

Expected behaviour

Builds fine when I checkout tag v26.0. I don’t remember getting this error in the past

Steps to reproduce

The build commands I’ve tried result in this error:

0./autogen.sh &&./configure --with-gui=yes && make clean && make -j 4

0./autogen.sh && ./configure CC=clang CXX=clang++ --without-bdb --with-gui=yes && make clean && make -j 4

0./autogen.sh && ./configure CC=clang CXX=clang++ --with-incompatible-bdb --enable-suppress-external-warnings --with-gui=yes && make clean && make -j 4

Which version of clang are you using?

You’ll have to use at least version 13 or 14, depending on your build settings, but an even later version would be better.

How are you getting the dependencies?

I just compiled it in a box with Brew following the official instructions, and I could build it. When using a box with Macports, the build breaks too (still not sure why…)

Both have Apple clang version 15.0.0 (clang-1500.1.0.2.5) in Sonoma 14.2.

I would check the clang version on your system, in any case the dependencies doc now states that the minimum required clang is 14.

Cannot replicate on a fresh install of macOS 12.0.1 which has Apple Clang version 13.1.6 and the command line developers tools script installed Xcode 13.4. Note that, according to this, It does seem that depending on when you had installed macOS 12.0.1 and when you had setup the environment, that it would have came with clang 12.0.0.

Which version of clang are you using?

0Apple clang version 13.0.0 (clang-1300.0.29.30)
1Target: x86_64-apple-darwin21.1.0
2Thread model: posix
3InstalledDir: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin

I tried building master @ f1ab078ed7742c3350438f0315846948cf317e67 on my newer MacBook Pro. Builds properly with no errors. Where clang version is:

0Apple clang version 14.0.0 (clang-1400.0.29.202)
1Target: arm64-apple-darwin22.1.0
2Thread model: posix
3InstalledDir: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin

in any case the dependencies doc now states that the minimum required clang is 14.

I did not realize this. That explains it.

How are you getting the dependencies?

In both cases I install/update dependencies with brew, eg: brew install automake boost ccache git libevent libnatpmp libtool llvm miniupnpc pkg-config python qrencode qt@5 sqlite zeromq. The PITA is clang (because it is installed by Xcode)

I think the conclusion is that I’m on clang 13 and need to upgrade. I’ll close this issue (I don’t have the will power to upgrade Xcode/clang on that machine right now and verify, but if it doesn’t resolve the issue when I get to this I’ll report back)
