cargo-generate bug iconv libiconv match libraries

linking error between macOS and macport provided libiconv library #1208

The problem is widespread and long lasting with many long discussions.

_libiconv or _iconv undefined symbol on Mac OSX

 

R-Problems with iconv on macOS

Longstanding GHC linking issues when multiple iconv libraries are installed on macOS (Haskell #18743)

 

long discussion:

MacOS iconv linkage misdetection (also deprecation warnings) #830

 

libiconv breaks compatibility with OS-provided #57821

 

rav1e @0.6.6: iconv linking fails, expecting symbols from MacOS's iconv lib #68026

rav1e: build fails due to git_allocator missing members #68178

 

Examples of possible fixes: 

ghc: Bugfixes for test and iconv linking #8523

Fix i/macOS libc++ initialization on early instrumentation #194

frida/frida-core

 

solution: libiconv on Mac OS X

FindIconv: Problem on macOS with mac ports

Ryan Carsten Schmidt @ryandesign · 1 year ago

I can't imagine how cmake could possibly help you with this problem. The only thing cmake does is tell you where libiconv is located. It should not matter at all to your application whether it tells you about a system copy of libiconv like the one in /usr on macOS or a third-party copy of libiconv like the one in /opt/local provided by MacPorts, so long as you use both the headers and the library from the same place. The only way the problem you're experiencing could occur is if you're using the headers from one place and the library from another, so Don't Do That.

 

Part 2: rustup; why; using git

 

rustup; why

Turns out rustup is essential to many projects (zed, redox).

 

curl –proto ‘=https’ –tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

https://www.rust-lang.org/learn/get-started

Don't forget to update every once in a while (see Issue #1208 ).

rustup update

 

Ignore what I said:

https://snownosx.blogspot.com/2024/04/a-cleaner-rust-install-on-macos-127.html

 

rustup self uninstall

Using git

git - the simple guide - no deep shit!

Why Linux will take over the world!

Linux reaches 4%

   will take over in 2040!

 No. 

Linux distributions can be usable even by regular folk depending on how they use them.  For web browsing, working on documents, spreadsheets and drawing its usable its fine.

 But once you go off a very narrow path of those basic tasks you may wind up fiddling with apt, peering into the terminal, trying to install package mostly succeeding but sometimes failing in mysterious ways.

setup steps (with brew)

Install rustup package manager first and then have rustup install rustc, cargo.

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
rustup toolchain install stable

 

the rust compiler is rustc
