New minor version.

comment:1 by Xi Ruoyao, 2 years ago

It depends on libsoup-3.

We can disable the feature using "-Dhttp=false" (if no one uses WebDAV here), or add libsoup-3 alongside with libsoup-2 (we can't replace libsoup-2 because other packages has not been ported to libsoup-3 yet). But, I have a feeling that adding libsoup-3 alongside with libsoup-2 can cause some tricky issue :(.

libsoup-3 can co-exist with libsoup-2.74: 

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     16 Feb 17 15:36 /usr/lib/libsoup-2.4.so -> libsoup-2.4.so.1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     21 Feb 17 15:36 /usr/lib/libsoup-2.4.so.1 -> libsoup-2.4.so.1.11.2
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 798624 Feb 17 15:36 /usr/lib/libsoup-2.4.so.1.11.2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     16 Mar 28 18:57 /usr/lib/libsoup-3.0.so -> libsoup-3.0.so.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     20 Mar 28 18:57 /usr/lib/libsoup-3.0.so.0 -> libsoup-3.0.so.0.0.5
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 754616 Mar 28 18:57 /usr/lib/libsoup-3.0.so.0.0.5

Adding that allows gvfs to build: 

30.3 Elapsed Time -  gvfs-1.50.0
 
md5sum : 6a8290053d3c0a8d8035b789d8ad3881  /usr/src/gvfs/gvfs-1.50.0.tar.xz

33628 kilobytes BUILD SIZE (32.839 MB)

At -j1. The meson sed is not needed.

The problem may be caused by co-existing soup2 and soup3 is:

  1. Say package A depends on B, A depends on soup 2, and B depends on a libsoup (2 or 3, automatically detected at building time).
  2. B is linked to libsoup3.
  3. A is linked to B, and libsoup2 (because A has some direct calls to libsoup2 API, not through B).
  4. Now when A starts, it aborts: ​https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libsoup/-/commit/9596a869414bb0811f1e1f6009c950ca7af81189

comment:7 by Bruce Dubbs, 2 years ago

We have 18 packages that have libsoup as dependencies. 11 of them are gnome which should be built all at once. The others are: 

geoclue2
uhttpmock
webkitgtk
gst10-plugins-good
libgrss
abiword
inkscape

Do we know if any of them have the above problem? Do any fail when buildign with libsoup3?

geoclue and libgrss are soup2-only, at least now.

gst10-plugins-good attempts to load soup3 at runtime (!), and if soup3 does not exist it falls back to soup2.

WebKitGTK is built with soup2, because evolution and gnome-online-accounts do not support a WebKitGTK build with soup3.

comment:9 by Xi Ruoyao, 2 years ago

And we need to take our dependency tracking method into consideration: saying A links to both B and libsoup2, and B has depend on libsoup2 but recently switch to "libsoup3 first, libsoup2 as fallback". Then in the book we won't have any record "A links to libsoup2" at all.

So my suggestion is just avoiding libsoup3 until it's adapted by downstreams widely enough.

OK, we'll have to use -Dhttp=false then. I hope the other packages have workarounds if they insist on libsoup-3.

Looking at my gvfs build log, I see:

Run-time dependency libsoup-3.0 found: YES 3.0.5

but that is the only reference to 'soup'.
