Hey,

Looks like this one has the same root cause as #465. In this case it's related to ls. Since ls is not used by formula directly, I am not sure how to properly fix that, but you should be able to workaround it in the same way you did it with #465. Just install coreutils and prepend them to the PATH.

Meanwhile will think about better solution.

May 17 '22 14:05 d12frosted

Good call, I added coreutils to my PATH and got past this error... and hit another, this time with awk 😖

Brew-installing awk (rather than using the system awk in macOS seems to get past this though.

:open_mouth: so many things to install; thank you for sharing

May 17 '22 15:05 d12frosted

next build failure involves Apple gzip, brew installing that seems to resolve it, though, and the build succeeds now! 🎉

So I've prepared a (possible) fix - #468. I would be grateful if you test it locally after you revert you changes to PATH. Basically, you can do the following (assuming jq is installed):

cd $(brew tap-info --json d12frosted/emacs-plus | jq -r '.[0].path') && git switch fix/stdenv-build
brew install emacs-plus@28 [OPTIONS].

Thank you in advance :)

May 17 '22 17:05 d12frosted

Since that PR makes sense in general and the build is green, I will merge it in ~12 hours, so I have more room for being responsive if this change breaks someone. Still, your testing results would be much appreciated 🙏

May 17 '22 17:05 d12frosted

Hmm, no luck - it still fails with the tar error I saw first. I commented out the relevant PATH prepends for GNU tools and ensured that I had the latest changes from your branch too - currently checked out to 3a0c8b52 .

May 17 '22 17:05 jidicula

Thanks for giving it a try. I guess with tar it's because I need to modify PATH a little bit earlier as downloading and unpacking happens before install function is invoked. Alright, tomorrow with try to move it earlier.

In case you feel bored, you can try to install gnu-tar, add it to PATH and see if everything else is working. I mean, ls and awk are used during build, so I expect them to work now.

May 17 '22 19:05 d12frosted

Oh ok, I just tried on your patch with gnu-tar on my PATH but no coreutils in PATH and it still failed with the previous ls error 😦

Really strange. In this case I am not sure what's wrong. Gonna read some brew sources to better understand how they bake PATH. Thanks for testing though! Will come back once I have ideas.

P.S. Not merging that PR yet.

May 18 '22 05:05 d12frosted

Ok, got another idea. TL;DR - please try building with https://github.com/d12frosted/homebrew-emacs-plus/pull/468/commits/542f0c00de2e74326f38bf6e5954cfbf6a7d3346. In case it doesn't work, run with --verbose flag and share output.

So there were two mistakes.

Formulas that override built-in commands put binaries under bin directory with altered name (for example, tar => gtar). Binaries with original name reside in libexec/gnubin directory. So one of the changes in my latest commit is to append these gnubin directories to the PATH in addition to bin.
Some of the utilities (like tar) are used before install function is invoked. But we need proper tar sooner. That's why I also moved PATH setup to initialisation phase.

While I was playing with this, I added few debug lines in various places:

p ENV['PATH']
system "which", "tar"
system "which", "ls"

Basically, I want to see what these binaries resolve to. If you build with --verbose flag, you might notice output from system calls. And actually it provides more information on what command is run at each step.

Before my changes, ls was either system one or installed from nix. Now it works as expected.

The current code is quite dirty, just want to see if that works.

Still fails. Very odd, it looks like it's still grabbing macOS tar instead of gnu-tar.

I see. Thanks for testing. Not sure why it picks incorrect tar. Will dig into it later.

May 18 '22 14:05 d12frosted

The thing is that I can't reproduce the error. What I tried:

Set the PATH to /opt/homebrew/opt/llvm/bin:/opt/homebrew/bin:/opt/homebrew/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Library/Apple/usr/bin (basically default macOS PATH + homebrew basic stuff).
Revert my changes.
Install the package using build script in the root of the project.

To help with that, I've created the following script:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

export PATH=/opt/homebrew/opt/llvm/bin:/opt/homebrew/bin:/opt/homebrew/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Library/Apple/usr/bin

./build 28 --verbose

And then after running it I see the following output:

I wonder if brew somehow resolves tar differently 🤔

May 18 '22 16:05 d12frosted

So basically, this is what brew tries to do:

tar --extract --no-same-owner --file /Users/d12frosted/Library/Caches/Homebrew/downloads/81fae34a5dbd8042af6a70512829e9d4a11e31e7067bf4da5c5bded31f757129--emacs-28.1.tar.xz --directory /private/tmp/d20220518-12034-b0gqyp

I tried with different tar binaries:

$ /usr/bin/tar --extract --no-same-owner --file /Users/d12frosted/Library/Caches/Homebrew/downloads/81fae34a5dbd8042af6a70512829e9d4a11e31e7067bf4da5c5bded31f757129--emacs-28.1.tar.xz --directory "$(mktemp -d)"
# works

$ /opt/homebrew/opt/gnu-tar/libexec/gnubin/tar --extract --no-same-owner --file /Users/d1
2frosted/Library/Caches/Homebrew/downloads/81fae34a5dbd8042af6a70512829e9d4a11e31e7067bf4da5c5bded31f757129--emacs-28.1.tar.xz --directory "$(mktemp -d)"
# works

(notice that I changed --directory output to $(mktemp -d))

How does it work for you?

Also, what is your PATH and shell?

May 18 '22 16:05 d12frosted

Ah, I also checked man of bsdtar (/usr/bin/tar is just a link to /usr/bin/bsdtar) and it seems that --extract is valid option. See https://www.mankier.com/1/bsdtar#-x

May 18 '22 16:05 d12frosted

Just FYI, I've updated the PR a little bit. But I still have not managed to reproduce the issue.

Sorry for the delay, some stuff came up and I couldn't devote any time to this.

Ok so running both of those commands (/usr/bin/tar and /opt/homebrew/opt/gnu-tar/libexec/gnubin/tar) work.

PATH is /Users/johanan/.rbenv/shims:/opt/homebrew/Cellar/pyenv-virtualenv/1.1.5/shims:/Users/johanan/.pyenv/shims:/opt/homebrew/opt/coreutils/libexec/gnubin:/opt/homebrew/opt/gnu-tar/libexec/gnubin:/Users/johanan/.dotnet/tools:/Users/johanan/.rbenv/shims:/Users/johanan/.rbenv/bin:/Users/johanan/.nodenv/shims:/Users/johanan/.nodenv/bin:/Users/johanan/.pyenv/bin:/usr/local/opt/openjdk@11/bin:/Users/johanan/.local/bin:/opt/homebrew/bin:/opt/homebrew/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/opt/X11/bin:/Library/TeX/texbin:/Users/johanan/.local/bin:/Users/johanan/go/bin:/bin:/usr/local/plan9/bin

My shell is zsh with oh-my-zsh plugins.

No luck with this either, very mystifying. It's odd that it's not being surfaced in CI either :/

error message is emitted either - do you have any idea? It doesn't look like what tar (either gnu-tar or macOS tar) emits when you pass it a bad flag:

❯ tar -q 
tar: Must specify one of -c, -r, -t, -u, -x

and

❯ gtar -q
gtar: invalid option -- 'q'
Try 'gtar --help' or 'gtar --usage' for more information.

Sorry for the delay, some stuff came up and I couldn't devote any time to this.

Sure, no worries. Plus I understand that it requires uninstalling Emacs and messing around with your environment. That's why I really advice you to use build script from the repository as it allows you to test installation without uninstalling Emacs 😸 Basically it just creates a formula called emacs-plus-local, which can be built alongside with emacs-plus. It fails during linking obviously, but we are testing how it builds.

Also you can create a script like this:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

export PATH=YOUR_PATH

./build 28 --verbose [OPTIONS]

That will help you with testing in specific PATH setup.

error message is emitted either - do you have any idea? It doesn't look like what tar (either gnu-tar or macOS tar) emits when you pass it a bad flag:

That's interesting observation. I have no ideas right now, but might be a good lead. Will take a look later.

Was closed automatically because I've merged that PR since it makes sense to have it anyways. But we know that your issue is not fixed yet. Will continue investigation.

Just had this exact same issue. I commented everything I was adding to $PATH and managed to go through with the installation. No idea what was actually breaking it.

I know it's an old issue, but in 2024 I still have the same issue. brew config:

@FledgeXu you can try removing the following line by brew edit emacs-plus@28 and installing again.

https://github.com/d12frosted/homebrew-emacs-plus/blob/5f068f6fe34eb9b431d87959f30f06945be3f587/Formula/emacs-plus%4028.rb#L8

Let me know if it helps.

Ah als, @FledgeXu please share the log of installing with --verbose flag 🙏
