libbitcoin-explorer 3.7.0 build issue #730
Comments
It seems that the versioning (xml metadata) was also bumped for bx dependencies. |
We are looking into this with @pmienk |
@pmienk explained to me that without updating the build output for explorer, it is trying to get the same version number as itself for other libs. This seems to be the behaviour for the past couple of releases. We have two options:
I like 1, cause it is less destructive. We can figure out how to decouple versions and/or do 2. later once you are settled in have internet. |
It’s been a while since I looked at versioning, but I thought we were decoupled and the consistency across repo versions was only a convention (and possibly a default). But if that’s not the case I agree, 1 is less disruptive - just remove the tag until we bump the version. |
Removed the v3.7.0 release and tag. Posted on the related issue on homebrew-core. Waiting to see if the issue is auto-resolved or @chenrui333 needs to do something to clear that out. |
@kulpreet, @evoskuil - As the last versioned release v3.6.0 across all repositories was performed in 2019, there have been significant changes which will prevent the current master of libbitcoin-explorer from compiling against the previous releases. There are 133 changes from v3.6.0 in libbitcoin-system alone. While many are build tooling changes, there are a significant number of code changes that will prevent building on updated compilers. For consistency, I would advocate for pushing v3.7.0 across all repositories after poking CI to reconfirm their success. |
Is it not possible to modify the build system parameters in the long term so that different versions of libbitcoin libraries can be pulled at the same time? That would avoid dependency hell of synchronizing multiple projects to the same release. |
One can always pull whatever version he wants, but the libraries must be compatible. The reason for versioning is in part to manage incompatibility. |
Builds verifying version3 HEAD (with explicit dependency upon v3.7.0): |
Issue resolved by coordinated v3.8.0 release. |
libbitcoin-explorer 3.7.0 requires libbitcoin-client >= 3.7.0, but there is no libbitcoin-client 3.7.0 release, did I miss anything?
relates to Homebrew/homebrew-core#139514
