[Bug 1906277] Re: PCL armhf FTBFS

[Brian Murray]

Hello Kyle, or anyone else affected,

Accepted pcl into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcl/1.7.2-14ubuntu0.1
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.

** Changed in: pcl (Ubuntu Xenial)
       Status: In Progress => Fix Committed

** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-xenial

  PCL armhf FTBFS

  Fix Committed
Status in pcl source package in Bionic:

Status in pcl package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * PCL fails to build on armhf in Xenial due to
  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=835292

   * The patch fixes this issue by backporting the fix from Debian:
  https://salsa.debian.org/science-
  team/pcl/-/commit/f559d014ee8960f84100d6b6cd8e7372de15fbb4 (with a
  slight tweak to keep things safer)

  [Test Case]

   * Build PCL on armhf, note that it fails to build with opengl-related
  errors (see this build log as an example:
  https://launchpadlibrarian.net/508382337/buildlog_ubuntu-xenial-
  armhf.pcl_1.7.2-14build1.1_BUILDING.txt.gz)

   * Apply this patch and build PCL again, note that it succeeds because
  Qt (the package that is including gles on armhf only) is not installed

  [Where problems could occur]

   * This is fixing a failure to build on armhf: no one can possibly be
  currently using it, and the fix is armhf-specific. Regression
  potential is low unless a typo is made in the patch.
