Tests fail (SEGFAULT) on i686 architecture

[Hellseher]

Hi,

I refreshed imppg in Guix Astro to 1.9.2-beta and noticed tests started failing on i686 architecture.
Round 1:

Running 20 test cases...
unknown location(0): fatal error: in "ModifyToneCurvePointToOverlapWithSuccessor_ExecutionFails": signal: SIGABRT (application abort requested)
/tmp/guix-build-imppg-1.9.2-beta.drv-0/source/src/scripting/test/settings_tests.cpp(100): last checkpoint


50% tests passed, 1 tests failed out of 2

Total Test time (real) =   0.13 sec

The following tests FAILED:
          2 - scripting (SEGFAULT)
Errors while running CTest
make: *** [Makefile:74: test] Error 8

Test suite failed, dumping logs.

Round 2

TIFFFieldWithTag: Internal error, unknown tag 0xa407.

I've installed an i686 guix 1.4.0 in a VM. Can you post commands/steps for me to try to build ImPPG 1.9.2-beta? (By default, guix build imppg takes 0.6.5).

[Hellseher]

Hi,

It was merged on 30th of November with test only kept on x86_64, https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/gnu/packages/astronomy.scm#n905,
https://packages.guix.gnu.org/packages/imppg/1.9.2-beta/

You may need to pull the latests changes first:

guix pull

Make Qemu backend enabled to build for variety of architectures:
<your-config-file>.scm

;; ...
(service qemu-binfmt-service-type
         (qemu-binfmt-configuration
          (platforms (lookup-qemu-platforms "aarch64" "armhf"
                                            "i586" "i686"
                                            "mips64el" "powerpc"
                                            "powerpc64le" "riscv64"))))
;; ...

After that step, you may need to reconfigure the system to make the service availalbe:

guix system reconfigure path/to/<your-config-file>.scm

And try to build on i686-linux:

guix build --system=i686-linux imppg

Or maby try to cross compile

guix build --target=i686-linux-gnu imppg

I'll check for the option how to modify the #:test? condition without too much pain.

Thanks; I did guix pull, which updated a bunch of things, but then guix build imppg still sees only 0.6.5. I've found this command:

guix build imppg --with-source=imppg@1.9.2-beta=./imppg

but it turned out I need to clone the sources myself into ./imppg, and anyway the dependencies are not automatically resolved (e.g., Lua).

I'd be happy to investigate the test problem, but first I'd need precise, verified instructions on how to replicate this build/test environment (either guix-on-host-Linux, or docker/VM), with the possibility to tweak the ImPPG sources used.

Hi,

Sorry for confustion.

I think you may share which commit you are on right now:

guix describe
Generation 60   Dec 04 2024 10:21:25    (current)
  guix 1c4a008
    repository URL: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git
    branch: master
    commit: 1c4a00820a1ba6265d2d96f4f7804d0807d69dcc

Check the version of imppg provided by that commit:

guix time-machine --commit=1c4a00820a1ba6265d2d96f4f7804d0807d69dcc -- package --list-available=imppg
imppg   1.9.2-beta      out     gnu/packages/astronomy.scm:906:2

Build the verion from provided commit of the generation.

guix time-machine --commit=1c4a00820a1ba6265d2d96f4f7804d0807d69dcc -- build imppg
/gnu/store/jdkdhj2s8f1ifcq3h4yy0hrv16azx74i-imppg-1.9.2-beta

As all issues with tests are resolved during packaging for x86_68 and i686 (just ignored test suit) the build should be successfull.

It starts up just fine on x86_64 (have no i686 or aarch64 hardware to test on)

guix time-machine --commit=1c4a00820a1ba6265d2d96f4f7804d0807d69dcc -- shell imppg -- imppg

As you may noticed I've used 1c4a00820a1ba6265d2d96f4f7804d0807d69dcc commit of the https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git main repository providing packages, it may be reproudced bit-to-bit on your end.

Could you re-check with the latest version (2.1.0)? It's been likely fixed by 4f0cd6c63b.

Hi, thanks for response. I'm in process of getting ready Guix Astro Update 2025/11 and will include the fresh version of imppg

[Hellseher]

Hi,

x86_64 build has been successful with tests enabled:

successfully built /gnu/store/qbswpl68ryzkqb0s1fs8cmg84pzry32w-imppg-2.1.0.drv
/gnu/store/2pai1z6l6qz4fqdkg3gzdqvb8wddwfb3-imppg-2.1.0

[Hellseher]

I can't confirm the build on i686-linux yet, see the blocking issue on Guix side: https://codeberg.org/guix/guix/issues/4313
