Three stage-2 builds -- brotli, libseccomp, meson -- stopped on /usr/bin/python: No module named build and building python-build means running `python -m build`. Its dependencies are the same cycle: packaging and pyproject-hooks are flit_core-backed, installing a wheel wants python-installer, and none of the six exist yet. On the host the cycle was already broken -- apt had python3-build -- so stage 1 never met it. Breaking it there again is not possible: apt has no python3-flit-core at all, so the backend all six need cannot be installed on the host by any means. Arch had already solved it, in the PKGBUILDs: `_bootstrap=1` selects a vendored builder that needs none of the six.

Ses dépendances sont le même cycle : packaging et pyproject-hooks passent par flit_core, installer une roue demande python-installer, et aucun des six n'existe encore. Sur l'hôte le cycle était déjà rompu — apt fournissait python3-build — donc l'étage 1 ne l'a jamais rencontré. Le rompre à nouveau là est impossible : apt n'a aucun python3-flit-core, donc le moteur dont les six ont besoin ne peut être installé sur l'hôte par aucun moyen. Arch l'avait déjà résolu, dans les PKGBUILD : `_bootstrap=1` sélectionne un constructeur embarqué qui n'a besoin d'aucun des six. C'est la voie prévue en amont pour exactement cette situation, et elle a remplacé une solution à demi écrite ici — trois hooks sur mesure appelant `python -m flit_core.wheel` puis dézippant dans $pkgdir — qui aurait réimplémenté ce que le PKGBUILD fait déjà correctement.

# Arch's own escape hatch for the Python packaging cycle. Sourced by the six

|
# hooks that need it; not a hook itself.

# THE CYCLE. Three stage-2 builds -- brotli, libseccomp, meson -- stopped on
|
|
#
|
|
# /usr/bin/python: No module named build
|
|
#
|
|
# and building python-build means running `python -m build`, which is
|
|
# python-build. Its dependencies are the same: packaging and pyproject-hooks are
|
|
# flit_core-backed, installing a wheel wants python-installer, and none of them
|
|
# exist yet.
|
|
#
|
|
# On the host the cycle was already broken -- apt had python3-build -- so stage 1
|
|
# never met it. Trying to break it there again failed for a reason worth
|
|
# recording: `apt-cache policy python3-flit-core` returns no candidate at all.
|
|
# Ubuntu does not package it, so the backend every one of these needs cannot be
|
|
# installed on the host by any means. Our own python-flit-core builds fine, but
|
|
# building a package is not installing it.
|
|
#
|
|
# ARCH ALREADY SOLVED THIS, and the solution is in the PKGBUILDs:
|
|
#
|
|
# if (( _bootstrap == 0 )); then
|
|
# python -m build -wn --skip-dependency-check
|
|
# else
|
|
# cd python-bootstrap
|
|
# python -m bootstrap.build
|
|
# fi
|
|
#
|
|
# python-bootstrap is a vendored builder that needs none of the six. Setting
|
|
# _bootstrap=1 is upstream's supported path through exactly this situation --
|
|
# far better than the alternative that was half-written here first, which was a
|
|
# per-package hook calling `python -m flit_core.wheel` and unzipping the result
|
|
# into $pkgdir by hand. That would have been three bespoke reimplementations of
|
|
# something the PKGBUILD already does properly.
|
|
#
|
|
# It also means these build on the HOST, where they had failed, so they need no
|
|
# stage-2 special handling at all.
