weird bug updating minimals

weird bug updating minimals

[Thomas A. Schmitz]

Hi all, Mojca,

after Taco resolved one issue with the latest luatex, I was trying to  
update on my osx-ppc box, and I am encountering a strange bug: when I  
run the ./first-setup.sh script, the rsync processes fail with this  
message:

MtxRun | using script: ./bin/mtx-update.lua

dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib
   Referenced from: /bin/sh
   Reason: Incompatible library version: sh requires version 7.0.0 or  
later, but libiconv.2.dylib provides version 5.0.0

and so on. Now this box has several more or less abandoned  
installations of darwinports and fink, but this looks like it's trying  
to link to the library provided by the system (OS X 10.5.6) and  
complaining it's too old. Any pointers to this one?

All best

Thomas

Hmmm ... libiconv? Is that comming from luatex? The only dependencies
listed on this computer seem to be:

> otool -L luatex
luatex:
        /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0,
current version 88.3.11)
        /usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0,
current version 7.4.0)
        /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0,
current version 1.0.0)

I have (cross-)compiled the binaries on 10.4.something, so ... I'm
confused. Is your library too old or is the required library too old
(older than the one you have)?

Well, good question... It looks like this happens when the script  
tries to run rsync, but I have no reason why this should involve  
libiconv:

mtx update | running command: rsync -rpztlv --stats     
contextgarden.net::'minimals/current/misc/setuptex/' '/Users/tas/ 
context/tex/.'
run | rsync -rpztlv --stats    contextgarden.net::'minimals/current/ 
misc/setuptex/' '/Users/tas/context/tex/.'
dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib
   Referenced from: /bin/sh
   Reason: Incompatible library version: sh requires version 7.0.0 or  
later, but libiconv.2.dylib provides version 5.0.0

and so on

I would would seem that the library on my system is too old. But it's  
beyond me to find out which process is calling this library and which  
version I have installed... :-(

The immediate message comes from /bin/sh, probably from a nested call
with a modified library path (rsync sounds like a likely candidate to
me, but that is just guessing). luatex should not depend on libiconv on
any platform, and it doesn't alter the library search path (not that I
know of, in any case).

Best wishes,
Taco

I just logged into this box as another user, and I'm still getting the  
same errors, so it's not simply an environment setting or wrong binary  
being called, and seems to be a real problem on the system level. Is  
anyone else using minimals on osx-ppc and could report if it's working  
for them?

Hello Thomas,

I'm guessing blindly. Can you please try

> which rsync
> otool -L /wherever/is/rsync

and check if all the libraries exist. On my machine I have:

/usr/bin/rsync:
        /usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib (compatibility version 5.0.0,
current version 5.0.0)
        /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0,
current version 1.0.0)
        /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0,
current version 88.3.11)

/sw/bin/rsync:
        /sw/lib/libpopt.0.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current
version 1.0.0)
        /sw/lib/libiconv.2.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current
version 7.0.0)
        /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0,
current version 1.0.0)
        /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0,
current version 88.3.10)

The versions 5 and 7 seem suspiciosly similar to reports that your
system complains about. Does rsync work OK for simple commands?

Hi Mojca,

yes, rsync works normally for simple commands (that's how I get the  
first-setup.sh). My rsync is the normal system one in /usr/bin:

/usr/bin/rsync:
	/usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current  
version 7.0.0)
	/usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current  
version 1.0.0)
	/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current  
version 111.1.1)

You're still using 10.4, right? So could this be the reason?

What does
   locate libiconv.2.dylib
return you? Do you have any other version apart from the one in /usr/lib?
   otool -L /usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib
probably gives you 7.0.0, right?

My only explanation is that luatex shields some system libraries. I
have this for example ...

> otool -L /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.3.9.sdk/usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.3.9.sdk/usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib:
        /usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib (compatibility version 5.0.0,
current version 5.0.0)
        /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0,
current version 71.0.0)

Maybe, maybe, maybe ... the cross-compiled luatex binary includes
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10[whatever]/usr/lib/ into library search path
with bigger precedence and then luatex sees that library before the
one in /usr/lib when rsync requests it?

Taco - would that be possible? How could one check if that might be the case?
