termux
[Bug]: dpkg: error processing package ffmpeg (--configure)
Problem description
I recently updated termux to v0.118.3 using this guide;
https://github.com/termux/termux-app#installation
I backed--up and restored my previous (very old) version of termux as directed here:
https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Backing_up_Termux
My first update after installing the new termux ran to 173 packages.
The update ran mostly OK, but I ran into an issue updating ffmpeg
Steps to reproduce the behavior.
~ $ pkg update
~ $ apt list --upgradable

dpkg/stable 1.22.6-5 aarch64 [upgradable from: 1.21.22]

findutils/stable 4.10.0-1 aarch64 [upgradable from: 4.9.0-2]

What is the expected behavior?
The expected behaviour was that ffmpeg would update without issues
Tried
~ $ apt purge ffmpeg
Followed by:
~ $ apt install ffmpeg
Same result

It is a recently-introduced bug that can be bisected, I will try to find a workaround. I can reproduce it.
@PorkPieHat while you wait for a solution, you can use ffmpeg7 package from TUR if you want, which is unaffected:
pkg install tur-repo
pkg install ffmpeg7
ffmpeg7
It is a recently-introduced bug that can be bisected, I will try to find a workaround. I can reproduce it.
Where does that bisect to exactly? Did it start happening with ffmpeg 8.0 or what?

no probably not. right now I am checking the behavior of FFmpeg + all dependencies built entirely with NDK r28c instead of NDK r29 (using this commit https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/commit/2de2878d08bd90ec345d1d37b61f79885cf16c4d + docker build -t ghcr.io/termux/package-builder scripts/ etc.)
@twaik unfortunately, NDK r29 has broken the libandroid-stub :(
Problem bisection commit in Termux: https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/commit/bd8b24b00afd94c7c33922bc5421159f59edff9e
Problem bisection commit in upstream: suspected to be in LLVM project, somewhere in between Clang 19 and Clang 21
(it could be in the Android-specific portion of NDK, but I suspect the change is more likely to be in an LLVM commit because of some evidence I noticed that is hard to explain, I could explain further if necessary)
Problem not reproducible on:
- Samsung Galaxy S8+ SM-G955F Android 14 aarch64
- Samsung Galaxy A70 SM-A705FN Android 13 aarch64
- Samsung Galaxy S9 SM-G960U Android 10 aarch64
Problem reproducible on:
- Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930U Android 8.0.0 aarch64
- Samsung Galaxy S III SPH-L710 Android 7.1.2 armv7l
- Sony Xperia Z5 E5823 Android 7.1.1 aarch64 (issue reporter device)
I can try to figure out how to fix it, but if I can't understand how, I have determined it would be possible to fix the problem as a last resort by building libandroid-stub with its own dedicated NDK version (similar to for example package aosp-libs).
I checked and rebuilding libandroid-stub with NDK r28c again makes the problem stop and then upgrading libandroid-stub makes the error come back.

Hope this helps

@PorkPieHat Actually, I mean to download the GitHub Actions artifact, from here, and install it to test,
Using this method, but on that PR instead of the PR in the video:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0f576782-3689-49f2-80d8-9c1dfe79034b
You need to be logged into GitHub to see the download link in the PR,
if you are able to do that, then you don't need to manually build it.
