Build deps on Windows does not work

Build deps on Windows does not work

[Angelo Graziosi]

Reading http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/tree/admin/nt/dist-build/README-scripts, under "For snapshots from Master", I did this:

mkdir -p ~/emacs-build/deps
cd ~/emacs-build/deps

wget http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/plain/admin/nt/dist-build/build-dep-zips.py

./build-dep-zips.py
Extracting deps
Initial pkgs ['mingw-w64-x86_64-giflib', 'mingw-w64-x86_64-gnutls', 'mingw-w64-x86_64-harfbuzz', 'mingw-w64-x86_64-jansson', 'mingw-w64-x86_64-lcms2', 'mingw-w64-x86_64-libjpeg-turbo', 'mingw-w64-x86_64-libpng', 'mingw-w64-x86_64-librsvg', 'mingw-w64-x86_64-libtiff', 'mingw-w64-x86_64-libxml2', 'mingw-w64-x86_64-xpm-nox']
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./build-dep-zips.py", line 259, in <module>
    deps=extract_deps()
  File "./build-dep-zips.py", line 100, in extract_deps
    subdeps = immediate_deps(pkgs[n])
  File "./build-dep-zips.py", line 76, in immediate_deps
    depends_on = [x for x in package_info if x.startswith("Depends On")][0]
IndexError: list index out of range

Maybe I am missing something... but I am wondering if this is caused by recent Python updates on MSYS2. What do you think? 

I run 'pacman -Syu' daily.

TIA

That script is not designed to be particularly robust, I am afraid. It 
works for me.

Given your name and email address, are you using an Italian locale? If 
pacman doesn't say "Depends On" that would probably break it.

If you just want the dependencies zip, you could always use the one on 
alpha.

indeed I had to change "Depends on" with "Dipende da" and "None" with "Nessuno".

Thanks,
 Angelo.

A better workaround, nay, fix, would probably be to run the subprocess
with the LANG environment variable overridden to the value "C".

I think Windows programs don't guarantee that this will take effect,
since the MS runtime doesn't support the LC_* and LANG environment
variables.

Maybe the script itself can do this...

Hmm, this sounds familiar, what happened to Juan José García-Ripoll's patch from
https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2020-03/msg00664.html
