PulseAudio compilation log (zip)

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

The error in the log is:

error: implicit declaration of function 'pa_thread_make_realtime' is invalid in C99

Implicit function declarations should only be a warning in Xcode 11 and earlier. They will be an error rather than a warning as of Xcode 12. This makes me suspect you have installed the Xcode 12 beta command line tools. Yes we should fix this but if you want to avoid these problems for now, downgrade to the latest Xcode 11 command line tools.

Hi Ryan,

This is what i suspected too. In fact i never installed a beta version of Apple tool on my Macbook. I only want to use stable version, as this computer is only use in production.

I suspect that Apple push the beta version by error on the AppleStore, that a caught while updating XCode.

How to check the CLT version installed exactly ? How uninstall the beta in favor to the stable release ?

Thanks in advance

Best regards

It's confirmed. I install XCode 11 and CLT working with this version, and, PulseAudio compile fine now.

I'm sure to not upgrade XCode and CLT to a beta version on my production computer. I only use official AppStore updates. Sound like Apple push a beta version in the space and i installed this update without to double check.

This file can be closed.

Ryan,

It's confirmed. Apple push a beta release of CLI over system update. Look my screenshot taken today after to have reverse back to an older stable version of XCode + CLT on this computer.

There is no reason for that. Only stable release must be available here. Fr me it's clear : it's a bug from Apple or it's a volumntary policy to force users to test this premature version in production.

Macports must be warn about to use non supported version of XCode and CLT before to compile a package, to prevent side effects.

Best

is your system still registered as a beta test system?

[cgilles (HumanDynamo)]

Hi Ken,

Of course no... I only have a Apple developer account to be able to get and install Xcode DMG image, that all. I never test MacOS system or application on this computer, it's a production machine...

I'm not payed by Apple to do this kind of job. I develop opensource desktop application (digiKam) which is not uploaded in Apple Store. I don't develop for Iphone, Ipad.

So for me, this kind of situation is a time latency policy. I lost one week with a lots of compilation failure before to understand that Apple force beta use by error (i hope)

I had a look at the Pulseaudio source code, and it turns out that it is an upstream bug that can be fixed by adding a single import statement. I have submitted ​https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/8386 with a patch that fixes the problem.

[chrstphrchvz (Christopher Chavez)]

I reproduced this failure with Xcode 12 beta 5 command line tools.

@rseichter has opened an issue and submitted a patch upstream: ​https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/-/issues/982 ​https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/-/merge_requests/365

[michaelld (Michael Dickens)]

I've reproduce this too, and it's the correct fix. Thx for the upstream PR to fix it.

pulseaudio: fix missing util.h import

This commit adds a patch which addresses an upstream bug, i.e. the
missing import of util.h, which causes a compilation failure with
Xcode 12 command line tools.
