            Bug ID: 11236
           Summary: util-linux fails to build on Travis CI when python
                    also selected
           Product: buildroot
           Version: 2018.02.1
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: Other
          Assignee: unassigned at buildroot.uclibc.org
          Reporter: frankv at helium.com
                CC: buildroot at uclibc.org
  Target Milestone: ---

Here is a link to the build output.  Notice that Python.h cannot be located.

The failure only occurs when building on Travis CI.  The same defconfig builds
just fine on my Ubuntu 16.04 laptop.  I tried adding python-dev to apt packages
in .travis.yml to no avail.

--- Comment #1 from Yann E. MORIN <yann.morin.1998@free.fr> ---
Frank,

As discussed on IRC, this is an environment problem on TravisCI.

I suggested you investigate what /opt/pyenv/shims is for, and similarly
for all the other stuff in PATH. You may have to sanitise the PATH
somehow before calling Buildroot.

Otherwise, there's not much we can do about it... :-/

> I tried adding python-dev

Which I explained on IRC was useless because your error is about building
util-linux for the target, so the host python devel files are useless.

Closing as not reproducible on a standard environment...

Hi,

@Yann Morin:
I think you confound Frank and me. I was on IRC and you told me to investigate
more.

I would keep this open. Maybe we can fix this in buildroot.

Thanks, Raphael.  Many Buildroot users like me rely on Travis CI.  It sucks
that Travis CI is still on Ubuntu 14.04 and I doubt that building inside a
Docker image will fix the issue.  Probably some form of PATH sanitization as
Yann points out is what's required.  Let me know if I can help in any way.

Cheers,
Frank

(In reply to Frank Vasquez from comment #3)
What would be the problem with using a docker image of the latest
debian/ubuntu? What did you try to fix this problem? Did it work? Sadly I had
no time for further debugging yet.

I will try reconfiguring my Travis CI build with an Ubuntu 16.04 Docker image
when I get a chance.

I can successfully build util-linux with python also selected on Travis CI
inside a Docker container.
