Core_Libs build fails on compling sys_metrics (Alpine/PostmarketOS | ARCH=aarch64 | glibc=musl)

[etihwjd]

I was trying to build this for my tablet as there isn't a pre-compiled package for Alpine/PMOS. The build (somewhat unsurprisingly) fell at the error below. I don't know if this is a problem with the glibc -> musl conversion, if it's an issue with the crate itself, or a problem between the chair and keyboard!

I don't have any rust/programming experience (I'm a healthcare professional! 👍 ), but I'm happy to have my handheld to help squish any bugs!

What is your Rust target? (rustup target list)

[etihwjd]

Hi Martin, apologies for the delay. The output of rustup shownon-priviledged is:

Default host: aarch64-unknown-linux-musl
rustup home:  ~/.rustup

stable-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl (default)
rustc 1.83.0 (90b35a623 2024-11-26)

Running the same command as root (sudo) is:

Default host: aarch64-unknown-linux-musl
rustup home:  /root/.rustup

stable-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl (default)
rustc 1.83.0 (90b35a623 2024-11-26)

Just fixed the issue you reported, if you face another one, feel free to comment here and I'll reopen :)

[etihwjd]

Thank you very much! I'll give compiling a go again later when I get back to my machine.
