pkgx deno compile -A --output main --target aarch64-apple-darwin main.ts on linux always generate executable for linux.

$ file main
main: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, not stripped

I wonder if that's related to this: denoland/deno#22690

Does it work with older version? if you do pkgx +deno~1.40 deno compile... does it help?

[jhheider]

note that you also have two --output statements to the same destination. i don't know if that significant with the placement order of flags.

it appears the issue is not related to Deno itself but rather to the Deno installation from pkgx. It works pretty good in ubuntu:latest and deno:latest

[jhheider]

And those are the up-to-date version as well? I can look into it, but based on that issue versions was my first guess.

[tsirysndr]

Yes, I can confirm that I am using the latest version of deno (1.45.3)

ok, interesting one. the problem is this:

runtime:
  env:
    DENORT_BIN: '{{prefix}}/bin/denort'

so, that line is there because their recently-added linux/aarch64 support targeted the glibc for ubuntu22.04 and we support much further back than that. if i comment that out, i can cross-build the apple targets (with unzip) as it grabs their downloadable runtime.

so, I think for now, I'm going to remove this, and explicitly set it in the test stanza. we'll need to update the couple of builds that rely on it (pkgx) being one of them, but that's not a big deal. when i merge this, it should Just Work™ for you without needing to wait on the build, since we're just changing the configuration. should be ready shortly.
