2019-01-14GNU NCURSES and GNU Readline also built before GNU BashMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+2
Readline is a prerequisite of Bash and AWK, while NCURSES is a prerequisite of Readline. With the recent update of GNU Bash (and thus GNU Readline) on my host operating system, the pipeline crashed and I noticed this hole in the pipeline. In particular, AWK (which linked with Readline 7.0) would complain about not finding it and abort.
2019-01-08Updated versions of core GNU programsMohammad Akhlaghi-7/+7
During the last month, several core GNU programs were updated, so their versions in the pipeline have also been updated.
2018-12-31Updated Gzip and Gnuastro versions to standard buildsMohammad Akhlaghi-2/+2
Both Gzip and Gnuastro were being bootstrapped personally from their Git repository until now. But fortunately a new release of both came out last week and so to make things standard we are now using their standard tarballs. I also noticed that we weren't checking the version of Gzip or mentioning it in the acknowledgement section. This was also corrected.
2018-12-13Minor update in checklist, incremented Gnuastro versionMohammad Akhlaghi-1/+1
A minor correction was made in the checklist (since we only have one `foreach' loop in the top-level Makefile) and also the version of Gnuastro was incremented.
2018-12-11Updated the version of GitMohammad Akhlaghi-1/+1
The version of Git was updated to the most recent version (2.20.0).
2018-12-04Shared library absolute address fixed in Libgit2 and WCSLIB on Mac OSMohammad Akhlaghi-2/+10
The build systems of Libgit2 and WCSLIB on Mac OS does not account for installation in non-standard addresses: `Libgit2' keeps the absolute address of its build directory (not the installation directory) and WCSLIB doesn't write any absolute address at all (so the system uses the first one it finds). To address these issues, we are now using Mac OS's `install_name_tool' program to fix the absolute path within the installed shared library. Since the version of the library is actually present in its shared library name, in `dependency-versions.mk' we have also separated these two libraries so later when their version is changed, we are careful in correcting the shared library name also.
2018-12-03Preference for shared library linkingMohammad Akhlaghi-1/+1
Some high-level programs like Wget and cURL need to be built in shared mode because they also include dynamic loading of libraries. Therefore, if we only build the lower-level libraries in static mode, our own build will be ignored and they will go and find the system's shared libraries to link with. Because of this, for now, we have manually set the `static_build' variable in the configure script to `no'. Also, if the downloader fails, we'll delete the output (an empty file in the case of Wget) because it interefers with a target definition.
2018-12-02Wget and OpenSSL now installed as a basic dependencyMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+2
The TeX Live installer needs Wget to operate smoothly, especially on recent Mac OS systems that don't have Wget pre-installed. Also, it would be good for the pipeline to have its own downloader. So with this commit, the pipeline also installs Wget and OpenSSL which is a dependency. Many other small changes/fixes were done in this process.
2018-11-29GCC is now installed by the pipelineMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+6
The pipeline now installs GCC and all its necessary prerequisites.
2018-11-28Better control of shared library linkingMohammad Akhlaghi-1/+2
Until now we weren't explicity writing the full path of the dynamic libraries necessary for linking a program. But now with `-Wl,-rpath=$(ildir)' we ensure that the linker keeps the address of the dynamic libraries necessary for linking at linking time, not running time. Also, `pkg-config' is also built when preparing the basics. Several other minor corrections were made thanks to the great help of Raúl Infante Sainz.
2018-11-26High-level dependencies build without system's PATHMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+2
The high-level dependencies are now built without having access to the system's PATH. To do this, all the necessary software that we aren't building ourselves are now brought into the installed `bin/' directory using a symbolic link to the corresponding software on the host. To do this, it was also necessary to increase the number of basic/low-level packages that we are building, and add several more (Diffutils and Findutils). With this process in place, we now have a list of the exact software packages that we are not building our selves, enabling easy building of all such dependencies in the future.
2018-11-26sh executable now available in PATHMohammad Akhlaghi-1/+1
While working on a research project using this pipeline, I noticed that we don't have any `sh' executable within our PATH. However, some programs (including Gnuastro's configure script, when it is checking for shells to use with Libtool) check and use it. So after building Bash, we also build an `sh' symbolic link to point to the built Bash executable.
2018-11-25Pipeline now downloads and uses an input datasetMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+1
In most analysis situations (except for simulations), an input dataset is necessary, but that part of the pipeline was just left out and a general `SURVEY' variable was set and never used. So with this commit, we actually use a sample FITS file from the FITS standard webpage, show it (as well as its histogram) and do some basic calculations on it. This preparation of the input datasets is done in a generic way to enable easy addition of more datasets if necessary.
2018-11-22Ghostscript was updated to version 9.26Mohammad Akhlaghi-1/+1
A new version of the ghostscript package is now available, so the used version in the pipeline (previously 9.25) has been incremented to 9.26.
2018-11-19Removed GNU Binutils, CMake's built with its own bootstrapMohammad Akhlaghi-1/+0
When the C compiler is not GNU GCC, linking with GNU Binutils is going to cause problems. So until the time that we can include GCC into this pipeline, its best to avoid Binutils also. Also, for building CMake, we were relying on an installed CMake, but now, we are using its own `./bootstrap' script, so it can be built even if the host system doesn't have CMake. Also, for TeX Live, we are now setting a custom file as main target to avoid complications with symbolic links as targets in Make. Finally, when the user says they don't want to re-write an existing configuration file, no extra notices will be printed and the configure script will immediately start building programs.
2018-11-18Pipeline also installs TeX live and necessary packagesMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+1
Since the final product of the pipeline is a LaTeX-created PDF file, it was necessary to also have LaTeX within the pipeline. With this commit, TeX Live is also built as part of the configuration and all the necessary packages to build the PDF are also installed and mentioned in the paper along with their versions.
2018-11-17TeX Live also built within the pipeline (no extra packages yet)Mohammad Akhlaghi-1/+1
TeX Live is now also downloaded and built by the reproduction pipeline. Currently on the basic (TeX and LaTeX) source is built but no extra packages, so the PDF building will fail. We'll add them in the next commit.
2018-11-15Binutils and other compressors also included in pipelineMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+4
To have better control over the build, GNU Binutils, Bzip2, GNU Gzip, and XZ Utils have also been added to the pipeline. Some other minor cleanups and fixes were also implemented throughout the process.
2018-11-15Static linking flag added to LDFLAGS, using special Bash scriptMohammad Akhlaghi-1/+1
Until now, when a package was to be built statically, we were adding the `--static' option to `CFLAGS'. This was the wrong place to put it! It should be in the linking step (thus `LDFLAGS'). Also, based on Bash's configure script, we are now using the more generic form of `-static' (single dash, not double dash). On the other hand, the `--disable-shared' option isn't available in many of the packages and it is highly redundant with the `-static' option, so it has been removed to avoid an extra warning in such packages.
2018-11-14Lzip and Tar also built as basic dependenciesMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+2
To ensure the easy unpacking and building of the programs, Lzip and Tar are now also build during the initial setup phase. Some minor corrections were also applied to make things cleaner and smoother.
2018-11-13Most library versions are now also checkedMohammad Akhlaghi-2/+2
All the libraries that define their version string as a macro in their headers are now also checked in `reproduce/src/make/initialize.mk'. Also, the CFITSIO tarball now follows the same versioning style as the rest of the tarballs: a script is added to convert the version string into what is included in the tarball.
2018-11-13Version of programs checked on each run of pipelineMohammad Akhlaghi-4/+8
The version of all programs is now checked in `reproduce/make/src/initialize.mk' and the pipeline won't complete if any of the program versions change from those listed in `reproduce/config/pipeline/dependency-versions.mk'. Since the pipeline is systematically checking all program versions, we don't need Gnuastro's `--onlyversion' option any more. So it (and all references to it) have been removed.
2018-11-12Libcurl, Git, CMake, TIFF, Zlib also built at configure timeMohammad Akhlaghi-1/+6
During the configuration step several new programs that were necessary for a more complete controlled environment are now also downloaded and built statically.
2018-11-12Dependencies built at the start of the pipelineMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+15
To enable easy/proper reproduction of results, all the high-level dependencies are now built within the pipeline and installed in a fixed directory that is added to the PATH of the Makefile. This includes GNU Bash and GNU Make, which are then used to run the pipeline. The `./configure' script will first build Bash and Make within itself, then it will build All the dependencies are also built to be static. So after they are built, changing of the system's low-level libraries (like C library) won't change the tarballs. Currently the C library and C compiler aren't built within the pipeline, but we'll hopefully add them to the build process also. With this change, we now have full control of the shell and Make that will be used in the pipeline, so we can safely remove some of the generalities we had before.
