The happy case seems OK.

13:13:54 configure: debug: running configure on core repo...
13:14:54 configure: debug: running configure on enterprise repo...
13:15:01 configure: debug: running configure on nova repo...
13:15:06 configure: debug: running configure on masterfiles repo...

I will add a breaking core PR to this and see how it fares then.

This is looking good to me.

16:20:16 bootstrap-tarballs: debug: Running configure on core repository...
16:20:16 Failed to run ./configure -C in /home/jenkins/workspace/bootstrap-pr/core
16:20:16 --- Start of ./configure -C output ---
16:20:16 checking build system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
16:20:16 checking host system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
16:20:16 checking target system type... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu

and then later

16:20:16 checking for mdb_dbi_opennope in -llmdb... no
16:20:16 configure: error: Cannot find Lightning MDB
16:20:16 --- End of ./configure -C output ---
16:20:16 --- Start of config.log ---
16:20:16 This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
16:20:16 running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

and still later we see clearly what the problem was in finding lightning mdb:

16:20:17 configure:14850: checking for mdb_dbi_opennope in -llmdb
16:20:17 configure:14875: gcc -o conftest -pthread     -L/var/cfengine/lib -Wl,-R/var/cfengine/lib  conftest.c -llmdb    >&5
16:20:17 /tmp/ccaylvZp.o: In function `main':
16:20:17 conftest.c:(.text+0xa): undefined reference to `mdb_dbi_opennope'
16:20:17 collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

It is a lot of logs but I think it is worth it. Without the bug things should be nice and quiet. I will test that now.

last failure was due to a cache being full, retry here: (rhel-7 only)

craigcomstock · 2026-11-13T19:18:03Z

not sure why it failed, try again:

craigcomstock · 2026-11-13T20:15:20Z

I think I would prefer that the LAST thing I see is the tail of configure output aka "the overview" and then if/when I need to I can dig back further UP to find the details.

…ailure Removed $OPTS from configure script. It has been there since the initial commit but seems unused so will remove as it simplifies this script. Ticket: ENT-14916 Changelog: none

Not sure why, but lmdb cached package isn't being detected during configure.

craigcomstock · 2026-11-13T21:09:29Z

build host had cached the bad lmdb cfbuild package. rebuild:
