lb: library not found for -lassuan about gpgme HOT 15 CLOSED

Gitpod gives you a Linux box that your ide can connect to.

from gpgme.

@sylvek @kaovilai thanks for investigating.

IIUC libassuan implements one of the protocols between gpg-agent and gpgme. This protocol is swappable, so it might be possible that your version has it compiled out.

I realised while you were removing things from LD_FLAGS that the reason it still works is probably because pkg-config is already setting these correctly. pkg-config is pretty new to this project #26

So I think the fix is just to remove LD_FLAGS entirely and leave it to pkg-config which should know how gpgme was configured.

I've raised an MR #35 - Before I merge, would you be able to test that it works? Thanks!

My current workaround is https://gitpod.io/

from gpgme.

@sylvek It should work on macos though I've never used M1. I've even setup a macos workflow https://github.com/proglottis/gpgme/blob/master/.github/workflows/go.yml#L41

I wonder if your gpgme is unlinked or something? Sorry I can't be more specific as I don't have macos right now.

Could try install libassuan as well but didn't work for me.

brew install gpgme libassuan

from gpgme.

My current workaround is https://gitpod.io/

Sorry @kaovilai i didn'yt understand what your link could help 🤔

@proglottis is it possible that the issue is coming from the version of gnupg?

This might do something haven't tested yet. It's possible libassuan brew package currently doesn't install everything for aarch64.

Maybe if this line can remove -lassuan we'd be good.

@sylvek I believe the issue is not on other libs but libassuan installation alone.

The homebrew recipe only checks that a binary exists and works.

  test do
    system bin/"libassuan-config", "--version"
  end

It doesn't check that header files are available for other programs.

from gpgme.

🤔 I removed -lassuan and -lgpg-error and it seems building.

// #cgo pkg-config: gpgme
// #cgo LDFLAGS: -lgpgme

I'll do more tests tomorrow.

from gpgme.

you can brew install libgpg-error so no need to remove that.

from gpgme.

@proglottis can you enlighten us why we need to link libassuan? can it be avoided?

from gpgme.

@proglottis i did a test, and everything worked as expected 👍

from gpgme.

Thanks all. I've cut a release with the fix https://github.com/proglottis/gpgme/releases/tag/v0.1.3
