Hello Guix,

I have a local package with a compile script that
I need to add to our local GUIX packages.

I tried to use trivial-build-system with
gcc-toolchain input, all works well when I compile
it manually in a 'guix shell' but when I try to
define a package I ran into this error:

ld: cannot find crt1.o: No such file or directory
ld: cannot find crti.o: No such file or directory
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

I cannot produce correct binaries with
gcc-toolchain, here is a minimal package
definition with the above problem. Could you
please tell me how to solve this problem ?

(define-public SimpleTest
   (package
    (name "SimpleTest")
    (version "0.0.0")
    (source
     (origin
      (method url-fetch)
      (uri ".../simpletest.tgz")
      (sha256
       (base32 "0nx8dgs5n4s1alp8lnp7a96czdll8bb7ljbg152yk7m0mr07728d"))))
    (inputs `(("gcc-toolchain" ,gcc-toolchain-9)
              ("gzip" ,gzip)
              ("tar" ,tar)))
    (build-system trivial-build-system)
    (arguments
     `(#:modules
       ((guix build utils))
       #:builder
       (begin
         (use-modules (guix build utils))

         (let* ((source (assoc-ref %build-inputs "source"))
                (out (assoc-ref %outputs "out"))
                (gzip (assoc-ref %build-inputs "gzip"))
                (gunzip-bin (string-append gzip "/bin/gunzip"))
                (tar (assoc-ref %build-inputs "tar"))
                (tar-bin (string-append tar "/bin/tar"))
                (gcc-dir (assoc-ref %build-inputs "gcc-toolchain"))
                (gcc-bin (string-append gcc-dir "/bin/gcc")))

           (let* ((packages (alist-delete "source" %build-inputs))
                  (packages-path (map cdr packages)))
             (setenv
              "PATH"
              (apply
               string-append
               (getenv "PATH") ":"
               (map (lambda (p) (string-append p "/bin:"))
                    packages-path))))

           ;; (setenv "GCC_EXEC_PREFIX" gcc-dir)
           ;; gcc: fatal error: cannot execute 'cc1': execvp: No such 
file or directory

           (display (list "gcc-bin" gcc-bin)) (newline)

           (mkdir-p out) (chdir out)
           (copy-file source "simpletest.tar.gz")
           (invoke gunzip-bin "simpletest.tar.gz")
           (invoke tar-bin "xvf" "simpletest.tar")
           (delete-file "simpletest.tar")
           (chdir "simpletest")
           (invoke gcc-bin "simpletest.c" "-o" "simpletest")

           #t))))

    (synopsis "Simple Test")
    (description "Simple Test")
    (home-page "None")
    (license license:gpl3+)))

Hi,

I have little experience with Guix packages, but I ran into a similar
issue using guix shell --pure recently, and I believe that you need to
add glibc to your dependencies.

I suppose that guix shell works for you because you already have glibc
available in the active profile.  I'd expect guix shell --pure to fail
with the same error.

Thanks for your idea but no luck, still the same error with glibc added :-/

Perhaps `find /gnu/store/ -name "crt1.o"` will give further hints?

Good luck!

Yes, it is already part of gcc-toolchain (gcc-toolchain-9.4.0/lib/crt1.o)

Adding "-L" flags to gcc does not help

Because ‘guix shell’ sets up a proper profile; quite unlike the 
trivial-build-system.

Using trivial-build-system here *is* the bug.  It's not a starter kit 
for building better things; it's for trivial packages that don't need 
building.

Rather than waste your time fighting that fact, use the 
gnu-build-system.  It is that starter kit.

If your tarball doesn't provide some standard GNU things like 
./configure or ‘make check’, that's quite common.  You can simply 
(delete 'configure), set #:tests? #f, etc.

Happy building,

T G-R

Thanks for your help, I will use the gnu-build-system and customize it 
as you suggest.

About customizing I have another question, at the end of the build I 
have messages like:

warning: collision encountered: ...

I would prefer to manage myself what is copied to the profile or what is 
not and where, is it possible ?

This collision is about?  What do you as inputs for your package
definition?

You mean skip the automatic references, right?

It is about header files or binaries with the same name coming from my 
local package sources, I want to be sure either to only copy the one 
needed to the profile or not to copy it if it is only helper binaries.

I would like to copy only what has been compiled/installed in some 
directories and not other for instance.

Cheers,

Emmanuel
