Hi,

I'm trying to run the arduino port built for HEAD/i386. This is using the binary pkg repository.

Description    :
Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on
flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software. It's intended for artists,
designers, hobbyists, and anyone interested in creating interactive
objects or environments.

The Arduino software consists of a development environment (IDE) and the
core libraries.

.. is this missing some dependency on something?

I'm running 9.1-RELEASE and don't really use the arduino ide.

The only libpthread.so.0 I see on my system is part of linux_base-f10. I installed arduino and xorg and deinstalled linux_base-f10 on a spare box and
I can get the arduino ide to run via X over a ssh session.

I also see two versions of librxtxSerial.so. One is installed by arduino and the other by rxtx-openjdk6. On my test system it looks like the rxtx-openjdk6 version is the one being used and it only depends on libc.so.7.

I poked at the configure script for the comms/rxtx source package but it doesn't look to me as if it would ever directly add -lpthread to LDFLAGS on any version of FreeBSD. Can you determine which librxtxSerial.so you're running? I used ls -lu after running arduino. See if you can figure out if the FreeBSD 11 librxtxSerial.so depends on libpthread.so.0.

(In reply to leres from comment #2)

Hi,

root@lucy-11i386:/home/adrian # pkg info | grep rxtx
rxtx-openjdk7-2.2p2_2          Native interface to serial ports in Java
root@lucy-11i386:/home/adrian # pkg info | grep arduino
arduino-1.0.6,1                Open-source electronics prototyping platform

That's all I know. I'm using the binary packages made for -HEAD i386, and I update every month. It's still not working even with the most recent update.

So, how's it ending up not actually working?

Comment 4 James Elstone 2015-05-13 19:57:21 UTC

The [RXTX] port, that [arduino] depends on, requires the "libpthread.so.0" which can be found in the port "./emulators/linux_base-c6".

This is installed into /usr/local/lib/compat/libpthread.so.1 by the [linux_base-c6] port.

The [RXTX] port is lacking this dependancy, and a bug for the [RXTX] port has been raised, with a proposed patch attached.

(Please see bug reports for RXTX that you will encounter once you resolve the issue you reported; it has a static code base located at http://rxtx.qbang.org/ which hasn't been updated since 4th Feb 2009).





https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=196892
This core dump is occuring in the [RXTX] port as it issues a SIGABRT to a thread, which forces the prcoess to perform a core dump.  
I suspect in JRE (OpenJDK) the handling of this had a different effect than OpenJDK 7+.

An upstream bug in RXTX has been reported, with proposed patch attached.

Given the recent fixes applied to and PRs closed for comms/rxtx, is the original concern still an issue?

There's no -HEAD package for i386 yet, so I guess it's all even more broken again. :(

Please try it out on i386 -HEAD; it'll be very obvious.

Hi Adrian,

any update on this?
