Subject: Cross-compiling libfido2

Message-ID: <87leww94jv.fsf@eauchat.org> (raw)
Hello Guix!
I'm trying to build a raw image for a rock64 board, from my x86_64
laptop (using Guix on PopOS), and bumping into some
packages seemingly not ready for cross-compilation.
I am adding `(service openssh-service-type ...)` to the base
gnu/system/images/rock64.scm (building the original rock64.scm config
works fine), and my build fails at libfido2.
My config is
https://gitlab.com/wehlutyk/matrixbox/-/blob/eacc326b8a7d41f3113e3768302c59687402a536/config.scm
and building libfido2 fails at the configure phase with
```
(...)
-- Could NOT find PkgConfig (missing: PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE)
-- Checking for one of the modules 'libcbor'
-- Checking for one of the modules 'libcrypto'
-- Checking for one of the modules 'zlib'
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:206 (message):
could not find zlib
(...)
```
but no amount of moving pkg-config or zlib across inputs and
native-inputs changes anything.
In /tmp/guix-build-libfido2-1.9.0.drv-0/environment-variables, the only
pkg-config included in PATH is
pkg-config-aarch64-linux-gnu-0.29.2/bin/pkg-config, which makes me
suspect that the host pkg-config is needed in this case, and not found.
(Indeed, building manually from the left-over /tmp folder, using my normal
environment, and sourcing environment-variables, finds
/usr/bin/pkg-config, and cmake successfully configures the build; why do
report this and not a manual attempt on a clean environment? I couldn't
manage to ``guix shell`` into a container with cmake-minimal-cross as
cmake.)
Just in case, I played around with pkg-config-for-build which also
doesn't seem to be the solution.
Other packages relying on cmake and pkg-config, and prepared for
cross-compilation, don't seem to do anything different than libfido2
(e.g. cppzmq), so I'm out of things to try :)
Does anybody have an idea of what's going on? I could try to build
libfido2 without pkg-config, but maybe there is something simpler to try
out?
Thank you and happy hacking!
Sébastien
