UUID error building Swift on Asahi Linux Fedora

Development Compiler
1

Hi,

I'm trying to build Swift from source using swift-5.9-DEVELOPMENT-SNAPSHOT-2023-08-11-a on Asahi Linux Fedora and I'm getting the error using the getting started guide. Was wondering what to do next?

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:230 (message):
  Could NOT find UUID (missing: UUID_INCLUDE_DIR UUID_LIBRARY)
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:600 (_FPHSA_FAILURE_MESSAGE)
  cmake/modules/FindUUID.cmake:23 (find_package_handle_standard_args)
  lib/Basic/CMakeLists.txt:10 (find_package)

Thanks,
Zane

Do you have the uuid-devel package installed? You’ll need the developer versions of the libraries swift depends on to build swift.

The closest reference I can give is the redhat ubi9 build container definition here.

Some of the package names may be slightly different, but that should be close enough to get started.

Thank you!

Ended up missing these

libcurl-devel libedit-devel libuuid-devel libxml2-devel python3-devel sqlite-devel

Now I am stuck on this message

[28/4344][  0%][1.226s] Building CXX ...keFiles/LLVMSupport.dir/Signals.cpp.o
FAILED: lib/Support/CMakeFiles/LLVMSupport.dir/Signals.cpp.o

From looking around it looks likes its part of LLVM. I tired installing llvm and llvm-devl but still no luck.

Yeah, LLVM is built as part of the compilation process of building swift. There won’t be a meaningful package that you can download.

What is the error message from the compiler?

Ok I ran it again this morning and it looks like it completed.

Though, now when I try to run the swift binary I get the following output. I suppose I submit a bug with this?

Nevermind :person_facepalming:

Hi, I installed all of those packages on Asahi Fedora Remix but I still got compilation errors. Can you share a full list of packages that you installed or upgraded, if possible?

8

Sorry I wasn't able to actually get it to compile. Ended up just using the pre made package which last I used it gave a bunch of pointer warnings when compiling. Have not tried with 5.9 or 5.9.1.

sudo dnf install swift-lang

Oh OK thanks for the update.

Ya I would love to be able to run swift from source on Asahi but haven't figured out the right incantation to do so.

Thanks,
Zane
