Build help

[ruzam18]

Hi there -
I'm trying to build this on Debian arm64, running into this:

"Specifically the "@esbuild/linux-x64" package is present but this platform
needs the "@esbuild/linux-arm64" package instead."

I notice there was a similar issue on fedora: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit-files/commit/84d8dc5db00a490b1d656177fd25ec26d1396e79

Wondered if someone could help me figure this out? Thanks!

This is an awkward npm check indeed. There's already esbuild-wasm which ./build.js will use, but that silly check breaks it. As a workaround, please run tools/node-modules install. If that doesn't work for some reason, you can also run npm install.

Hi Martin, I've run that, but it doesn't work. That errors out too. Kind Regards, Samuel Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/AAb9ysg>

Try:

rm -rf node_modules
npm install

I'm not a developer, I'm a fiddler! I normally use Fedora, but have to use Debian for this. Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/AAb9ysg>

I've done that too. It hangs up again on a non arm64 library. I've looked through the code but can't find the x64 reference for Debian. Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/AAb9ysg>

Sorry then, I can't think of anything else. packages.json has nothing specific to x86_64 -- If a mere npm install esbuild doesn't work on ARM, that's a bug for https://github.com/evanw/esbuild/issues

[ruzam18]

So I do npm install, make. NPM works, make is where it dies. Can I build the artifacts without make? Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/AAb9ysg>

Rephrase. Esbuild with Cockpit is selecting the x86 library on arm64 when the arm library is present. Samuel Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/AAb9ysg>
