Give zig, rust, go_win and go_xcaddy a small consistent surface for
locating the install directory and a binary inside it:
- path(): install/extract root for the artifact
- binary($name = '<default>'): full path to a binary under that root,
picking the artifact's natural layout (top-level for zig, bin/ for
rust and the go toolchains)
- isInstalled(): is the default binary present on disk
Callers that previously concatenated PKG_ROOT_PATH . '/zig/zig' (and
the equivalents for the other artifacts) by hand can call the helpers
instead, and any later code that needs to ask "is this toolchain
available" can use isInstalled() without rebuilding the path.
Switch the rust and go_win downloaders from baking PKG_ROOT_PATH into
the extract path at download time to the {pkg_root_path} template,
which ArtifactExtractor resolves at extract time. This keeps the path
stable across runs where pkg_root_path differs between download and
extract (e.g. containerised vs host builds).
The shell invocation runs `$CXX -c` to compile watcher-c.cpp to a .o,
which never links. Passing linker flags to a compile-only step is
either ignored or, with some flags, an error. Drop them.
ax_gcc_archflag has no Zen cpuid pattern and falls back to
-mtune=amdfam10, which under LLVM+LTO emits SSE4a extrq and SIGILLs on
Intel hosts. Disable the implicit --with-gcc-arch so host CPU features
do not bleed into the built binaries.
ftp.gnu.org is unreliable and frequently times out during CI builds.
ftpmirror.gnu.org is GNU's own CDN that auto-redirects to the nearest
mirror. This is the recommended download method per
https://www.gnu.org/prep/ftp.en.html
Also normalizes /pub/gnu/ paths to /gnu/ since ftpmirror only serves
the latter.
Affects: libiconv, gettext, gmp, idn2, libunistring, ncurses, readline
-fno-plt is an ELF-only flag that has no effect on macOS Mach-O
targets — clang emits "argument unused" when it encounters it.
Libraries like xz that run -Werror sanity checks during configure
promote that warning to a fatal error, breaking the build.
vswhere.exe defaults to searching Community, Professional, and
Enterprise editions only. CI environments typically install the
lightweight Build Tools product which is a separate product type
(Microsoft.VisualStudio.Product.BuildTools). Without -products *
the tool returns no results and the build fails with "Visual Studio
with C++ tools not found".
