So perhaps that is the best way to avoid having to deal with ABI/API

After that it is up to the maintainers of the dependant packages to
update their package and start using boost-1.75.
There is the implicit assumption that a patch that updates
boost for all the dependent ports should also provide fixes
if those ports fail to build after the update. That is
the major task.
There are "only" 490 ports that have boost in their Makefile.
Compare this to CMake, which has about 1900 direct consumers. While there's
less ABI-breakage and more configure- and build-time breakage, a CMake update
looks like this:
- build all the consumers with the current version of CMake
- fix the ones that don't build, or mark BROKEN
- bump CMake locally
- build everything again
- fix the ones that don't build
The actual CMake parts are the easy bits. Dealing with 15-year old C++ code
that happens to use CMake and falls over for totally unrelated reasons is the
real time sink. Ceph, too, is one of those things that eventually gets added
to my ignore list as "doesn't build in any recent ports checkout":
/usr/local/bin/ld: ../../../lib/libkv.a(LevelDBStore.cc.o):
(.data.rel.ro._ZTI17CephLevelDBLogger[_ZTI17CephLevelDBLogger]+0x10):
undefined reference to `typeinfo for leveldb::Logger'
I fix what I can, send mail to maintainers when I can't and so we hope that
progress happens
Hi Adriaan,
I understand your pain.
I'm in the squeeze that Ceph has moved to new version, which I do get to
build/test
in my jenkins builders. But I'm/was sort of waiting for the move to git
with ports.
And then figure out how to get things to work again with the latest
release.
Unfortunately I got little time at the moment, so progress there is slow.
And you are right that it hard to find the cause for this, since so many
things
have changed: Ceph source, Cmake config, llvm compiler and linker and
leveldb.
So the permutations are plenty.
If you want to fix the above (which I also got in my builders, and have
not found the
root cause for) you could add `-D WITH_LEVELDB=OFF` to the CMAKE options.
Hopefully I get around to submitting a patch to get ceph14 to v14.2.20
real soon now.
