[Bug 1913852] Re: zLib link failures on Xenial

 

Hello rojer, or anyone else affected,

Accepted golang-1.13 into xenial-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/golang-1.13/1.13.8-1ubuntu1~16.04.3
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
xenial to verification-done-xenial. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-xenial. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Title:
  zLib link failures on Xenial

Status in golang-1.13 package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in golang-1.13 source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [impact]
  Applications that use the "compress/zlib" package fail to build.

  [test case]
  $ cat > go.mod
  module github.com/foo/baz

  go 1.13
  $ cat > main.go
  package main

  import (
          "bytes"
          "compress/zlib"
  )

  func main() {
          var b bytes.Buffer
          w := zlib.NewWriter(&b)
          w.Write([]byte("hello, world\n"))
          w.Close()
  }
  $ go build -v

  The final command will fail before this is fixed and pass after.

  [regression potential]
  The fix is just preventing debhelper from stripping the zlib.a file in golang-1.13-go. Rebuilding the go toolchain one more time should not introduce any changes (the go project is pretty good about bootstrap hygiene).

  [original description]
  Backported go-1.13 came with issues with zlib.

  In some projects i see link errors:

  golang.org/x/crypto/openpgp/packet.(*Compressed).parse: relocation target compress/zlib.NewReaderDict not defined
  github.com/go-git/go-git/v5/plumbing/format/packfile.NewEncoder: relocation target compress/zlib.NewWriterLevelDict not defined
  github.com/go-git/go-git/v5/plumbing/format/packfile.(*Encoder).entry: relocation target compress/zlib.(*Writer).Reset not defined
  github.com/go-git/go-git/v5/plumbing/format/packfile.(*Scanner).copyObject: relocation target type.compress/zlib.Resetter not defined
  ...

  also reported in
  https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/osconfig/issues/279

  and compiling a trivial program (example from compress/zlib reference)
  causes crash during linking:

  module github.com/foo/baz

  go 1.13
