Cross does not work on MacOS

[nbigaouette-eai]

I'm trying this out on a project of mine (thanks by the way! 👍 ) but cannot compile a static binary.

The project unfortunately does not link with error adding symbols: Archive has no index; run ranlib to add one:

 -> cross build --target=x86_64-unknown-linux-musl
   Compiling runner v0.1.0 (file:///project)

Seems the problematic crate is isatty. This crate has a single dependency libc.

Not sure how to investigate this further... 🤔

[japaric]

Do you have steps to reproduce? I can't repro with:

$ cargo new --bin hello && cd $_

$ cargo add isatty

$ tail -n2 Cargo.toml
[dependencies]
isatty = "0.1.5"

$ cross build --target=x86_64-unknown-linux-musl && echo OK
OK

$ rustc -V
rustc 1.22.0-nightly (dcbbfb6e8 2017-10-12)

[nbigaouette-eai]

Using the empty hello I get:

That's with stable (1.21). If I try nightly it also fails:

 -> rustup run nightly rustc -V

 -> rustup run stable rustc -V
rustc 1.21.0 (3b72af97e 2017-10-09)

I'm on macOS Sierra...

[japaric]

Ohh, yeah. cross doesn't support macOS, only Linux hosts (this is written on the README). On macOS, cross does exactly the same as cargo so you are seeing is what you would normally see if you ran cargo build --target x86_64-unknown-linux-musl there.

#131 will add support for both macOS and Windows but I haven't had any chance to review yet.

[nbigaouette-eai]

haaaaaaa hahaha ok sorry about the noise then! I guess I've been spoiled by rust's cross-platform compatibility :P

The same for me. cross does not seems to run docker at all
