this is a good thing to have and we should reinstate it after 3.18,
however it requires fixing a million things, which is a bit too much for
a sudden release build.
i forgot the implications of this aside from fixing strerror_r and how
much work it was, so put this back after 3.18 branch.
otherwise every package prints
>>> gotosocial-openrc*: Running postcheck for gotosocial-openrc
find: /builds/raspbeguy/aports/testing/gotosocial/pkg/gotosocial-openrc/usr/lib/python*: No such file or directory
the other postchecks already conditionalise on if [ -d, but we use a wildcard here
no actual package change
Python by default pre-compiles cache files in __pycache__ directories,
which we currently happily install along in python packages.
Theses .pyc files are rather big and the time/space tradeoff could be
left to users if we just split these out to a -pyc subpackage.
With this default_pyc helper, one can add $pkgname-pyc to their
package's subpackages and it will automatically split off the pyc files
in a package that will be automatically installed if the virtual 'pyc'
package is installed.
Note that this does not work so easily if there already were python
subpackages, the function could be adjusted to strip off the last dash
if required but that seems rather rare.
Random data, sizes:
- python3: currently 47MiB, split into 23M (main package) / 24M (pyc)
- py3-markdown: currently 700KiB, 368K (main) / 288K (pyc)
Random benchmark, with python3-pyc:
hyperfine --warmup 5 -m 100 \
"python3 -c 'import time; print(time.strftime(\"%T\"))'"
Time (mean ± σ): 24.5 ms ± 2.5 ms [User: 18.4 ms, System: 6.0 ms]
Range (min … max): 19.4 ms … 28.9 ms 148 runs
without python3-pyc (same as user without root permissions, root would
generate files on first root, for reference this command generates 184KB
of pyc files):
hyperfine --warmup 5 -m 100 \
-p 'rm -rf /usr/lib/python3.10/__pycache__ /usr/lib/python3.10/encodings/__pycache__' \
"python3 -c 'import time; print(time.strftime(\"%T\"))'"
Time (mean ± σ): 53.7 ms ± 4.3 ms [User: 39.3 ms, System: 14.3 ms]
Range (min … max): 47.0 ms … 65.6 ms 100 runs

Packages installing python3 site packages for python3 in version 3.x.y
depend on python3~3.x. This automatically adds the required
dependencies.
Unit test cases have been added by reusing the `py3-foo-and-bar` test
package. However, the path of that has been renamed to contain spaces
to be extra sure the logic is safe in regrade to spaces in path
names.
Otherwise, if a different REPODEST is being used (e.g. due to
`buildrepo -d <repo-dest>`) then the abuild invocation in the
created chroot will not write packages to the correct REPODEST.
Therefore, `buildrepo -R -d` does presently not work correctly.
This commit fixes this by also copying the REPODEST value from
the environment.
This fixes a regression introduced in 1582617eb8.
This reverts commit 489fc06e40.
this needs way more thought to work, see
32f314f8076d509bd4c541b1d250b3744947867f in aports
we should probably just create *-pyc splits instead. these
won't reduce mirror size, but at least allow easily uninstalling the cache.
Otherwise, user-set environment variables can leak into the container
and cause spurious build/test failures. A common example is the value of
the SHELL environment variable which is used by a lot of software.
Outside of the bwrap container I use ksh and my SHELL environment
variable points to /bin/ksh, however, inside the container /bin/ksh is
not available and hence software relying on $SHELL doesn't work
properly. This can cause annoying to debug test failures, e.g. !43430.
format-security warns of usage such as `printf(x)`, which is usually a
security hole.
int-conversion is very useful to find cases such as
```
error: assignment to 'const char *' from 'int' makes pointer from integer without a cast [-Werror=int-conversion]
msg = strerror_r(errnum, buf, buflen);
```
where the usage of things like the wrong strerror_r are legitimate
errors in the application that cause it to crash. it makes more sense
for the compiler to reject it instead, and this does that.
