Arch dropped ICU-22132.patch for 78.1
https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/icu/-/commit/8637e8414c14f1a8c346a9a8337a318193794db6

This patch was previously necessary for Thunderbird 115's calender tab to function correctly.
This appears to no longer be a problem.

Still no lead on the symbol issues, can't get it to add -v to the LDFLAGS either.

Currently fails with symbol errors.

I have determined that the symbol errors are prefix pollution libicu 77.1 -> libicu 78.1 . I don't know a good way to work around them other than that to avoid those errors, you must build using a clean Docker container by using docker container kill termux-package-builder and then docker container rm termux-package-builder.

Should have thought of that, must have been from the ffmpeg rebuild tests.

There is a problem with libgnustep-base with NDK r28c, but it has to do with Objective-C and unfortunately I don't understand it and have not been able to fix that.

Yeah I got nothing...
I can try making the linker more verbose, but I don't think I'm gonna be able to solve this.
I'll split it out into a separate branch, and if we can't get libgnustep-base building I think we should consider (temporarily) disabling it until we can get it to build against NDK 28c/29.

Looks like webkitgtk-6.0 ran into a Skia issue.

[TomJo2000]

The CI is getting hit pretty hard by the rebuilds.
I'll cancel the current batch and we'll do the FFMPEG one first.

That is also related to NDK r28c. I tried to fix that for a long time (several months), but I haven't been able to. The error is extremely complicated.

I believe the error is likely to be reproducible on FreeBSD once FreeBSD attempts to bump their webkit2-gtk package to a version closer to the version that Termux packaged. I also believe that the error might also be possible to bisect not only to NDK r28c, but also to a commit somewhere in between webkitgtk 2.46.5 and webkitgtk 2.48.0. I haven't confirmed that.

[TomJo2000]

CI was running out of space.
It looks like it was spidermonkey's fault.
It's full build directory grows to about 6.7GiB.
So I added it to big-pkgs.list.

This error in the current Rust in some packages error: implicit autoref creates a reference to the dereference of a raw pointer can be coerced to warning in the general case by inserting #![warn(dangerous_implicit_autorefs)] at the top of the .rs file in between the end of the first comment and the beginning of the first code,

termux-packages/x11-packages/thunderbird/0035-fix-for-rust-1.89.patch

Line 7 in e74419f

+#![warn(dangerous_implicit_autorefs)]

but I'm not sure if there is any case where doing that could have a side effect or not. I don't really know what it means

[TomJo2000]

Got everything that will build building now.

Let's look at the damage.

• libgnustep-base takes unar with it as a revdep.
• webkitgtk-6.0 takes epiphany and zenity with it.
  • zenity takes down marco, which would take down MATE, so that's an immediate blocker for the whole rebuild.

This PR cannot go ahead until we have webkitgtk-6.0 building again.

[TomJo2000]

Looks like I accidentally dropped mpd's rebuild at some point.
Doing it now.
