Blosc: v0.3.0 => v0.4.1 failed at CentOS

[mmikhasenko]

During the update the package building failed witht the error:

============================================[ ERROR: Blosc ]=============================================

LoadError: BinaryProvider.LibraryProduct("${HOME}/.julia/v0.6/Blosc/deps/usr/lib", String["libblosc"], :libblosc, "Prefix(${HOME}/.julia/v0.6/Blosc/deps/usr)") is not satisfied, cannot generate deps.jl!
while loading ${HOME}/.julia/v0.6/Blosc/deps/build.jl, in expression starting on line 40

=========================================================================================================

It is not clear to me what the problem is.

Previous version still works.

I can confirm the same issue on CentOS7.
Thanks for providing the suggestion to use an older version.

What is the output (with the latest version) if you do

rm(Pkg.dir("Blosc", "deps", "usr"), recursive=true)
Pkg.build("Blosc")

Thanks for the help

Try

push!(ARGS, "--verbose")
Pkg.build("Blosc")

to get more informative output.

The previous suggestion to delete and reinstall Blosc folder surprisingly solved the problem at my computer.

Thank you for your answers!

[stevengj]

Would be good to know what is causing it to fail for @codles, though, since users shouldn't have to manually delete the deps/usr directory to upgrade.

The same problem occurs on Centos7 julia v0.6.0 for v0.4.2 and

julia> rm(Pkg.dir("Blosc", "deps", "usr"), recursive=true)
julia> Pkg.build("Blosc")

does not solve the problem only version v0.3.0 works. Same Error:

Probably the same as JuliaInterop/ZMQ.jl#176 … the only thing we can do is to add a fallback to deps/build.jl that builds from source if the binary is not working (because of libstdc++ incompatibility).

[dragozzine]

Had essentially the same error on our Debian 8 machine when trying to install the newest version (v.0.4.2) on julia v0.6.0. Deleting the old files using "rm" did not work, but going back to v0.3.0 using Pkg.pin did work. Just pointing out that this isn't just a CentOS7 problem. Thanks Steven for all your work on julia and these packages.

[stevengj]

A PR that adds a manual build fallback would be welcome.

[stevengj]

Can someone on CentOS confirm that this is fixed in the latest master?

Pkg.add("CMakeWrapper")
Pkg.checkout("Blosc")
Pkg.build("Blosc")

[mmikhasenko]

I switched to Julia from the provided Linux binaries. I can only confirm that current Blosc master builds fine together with CMakeWrapper. Hopefully, someone with from-source-julia can confirm that the problem is solved. Thank you @stevengj !
