Unable to build on linux Aarch64, requires libatomic, but cannot find it

[ghost]

You are unable to properly finish compiling zig-bootstrap on debian AND fedora linux. (I've only included reproducible steps for fedora to keep things simplified as fedora is easier to set up) STEPS TO REPRODUCE: Download the iso for fedora 36 Workstation and set up a development environment with 12GB of ram and 4+ cpu cores.

sudo dnf update
sudo dnf groupinstall "Development Tools" "Development Libraries"
sudo dnf install clang cmake git
sudo dnf install libatomic

Then download bootstrap git clone https://github.com/ziglang/zig-bootstrap.git

Then attempt to build ./build -j4 native-linux-musl native NOTE: No, changing it to native-linux-gnu does not change the error, neither does changing the architecture to generic

And the result will be after alot of compiling - ( It does successfully at least build the stage 1 compiler..? )

Install the project...

See issue https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/10086 and pr https://github.com/ziglang/zig/pull/11828

Hm hm, checks out. If pr ziglang/zig#11828 is passed through I'll test fedora again and see if this can be closed.

Suggestion to close this.
