libcinnamon-js.so still not loaded. #4500

marguerite · 2015-08-10T14:47:20Z

I‘m using openSUSE and I maintain Cinnamon. Everything updated to the latest version.

In my ~/.xsession-errors-:0:

Window manager warning: Log level 16: Failed to load shared library 'libcinnamon-js.so' referenced by the typelib: libcinnamon-js.so: Can not open shared object file: No such file or directory

As I noticed we have had the ugly hacky patch to link /usr/lib64/cinnamon/libcinnamon-js.so to /usr/bin/cinnamon so that we packagers no longer need to "chrpath" or "patchelf" things (by the way, patchelf has a serious bug for almost a year, don't use it).

My cinnamon's runpath:

/usr/bin/cinnamon: RUNPATH=/usr/lib64/cinnamon

But during start, all js applets still can't be loaded.

Using strace, I got:

open("/usr/lib64/cinnamon/libcinnamon.so", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3

which indicates that runpath is recognized, but:

open("/usr/lib64/libcinnamon-js.so", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

/usr/bin/cinnamon doesn't even try to open "/usr/lib64/cinnamon/libcinnamon-js.so" :-(

please help me to debug this?

Check the rpath

chrpath -l /usr/bin/cinnamon

it should return

$ chrpath -l /usr/bin/cinnamon
/usr/bin/cinnamon: RPATH=/usr/lib64/cinnamon

If it has the wrong path set run

chrpath -r /usr/lib64/cinnamon /usr/bin/cinnamon

If it doesn't have any rpath set you will need to run

patchelf --set-rpath /usr/lib64/cinnamon /usr/bin/cinnamon

leigh123linux · 2015-08-11T06:01:29Z

Try this in your spec file instead

# fix rpath for CinnamonJS
chrpath -r %{_libdir}/cinnamon %{buildroot}%{_bindir}/cinnamon
chrpath -l %{buildroot}%{_bindir}/cinnamon

NixOS/patchelf#10

I can't use patchelf, cinnamon will segfault with GLIBC_2.2.5 symbol not found in libc.so.6 when it actually has. Because the above bug.

And the/usr/bin/cinnamon RUNPATH=/usr/lib64/cinnamon is the output from chrpath -l. Still the same after running -r.

Seems I can have the RPATH you mentioned but RUNPATCH

leigh123linux · 2015-08-11T06:51:32Z

I have no RUNPATH here only RPATH

$ readelf --dynamic /usr/bin/cinnamon | grep PATH
 0x000000000000000f (RPATH)              Library rpath: [/usr/lib64/cinnamon]

leigh123linux · 2015-08-11T06:59:50Z

I note in you spec file you dont disable rpath in configure

%build
NOCONFIGURE=1 ./autogen.sh
%configure                          \
   --disable-schemas-compile        \
   --enable-compile-warnings=yes       \
   --with-ca-certificates=%{_sysconfdir}/ssl/ca-bundle.pem
make %{?_smp_mflags}

I use this in fedora

NOCONFIGURE=1 ./autogen.sh

%build
%configure \
 --disable-static \
 --disable-rpath \
 --disable-schemas-compile \
 --enable-introspection=yes \
 --enable-compile-warnings=no

sed -i -e 's! -shared ! -Wl,--as-needed\0!g' libtool

make %{?_smp_mflags} V=1

%install

marguerite · 2015-08-11T16:30:49Z

I'll test if disable rpath works...and why did you disable as-needed? If the absorbed hacky patch works:

chrpath/patchelf won't be needed...(I doubt that)
the linking to libcinnamon-js.so should survive through as-needed...

because it was what the patch meaned to be, see

http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-commit/2012-05/msg00780.html

leigh123linux · 2015-08-11T17:34:11Z

The as-needed was probably a leftover from some test and I will remove it

http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/cinnamon.git/commit/?id=4f0f616eddf4694781263a61871a08396adff39f

The options that might be useful to you are

--disable-rpath

and

--disable-static

marguerite · 2015-08-12T00:37:24Z

Hi, I added "--disable-rpath" and "--disable-static".

chrpath -l /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/cinnamon-2.6.13-3.2.x86_64/usr/bin/cinnamon
/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/cinnamon-2.6.13-3.2.x86_64/usr/bin/cinnamon: RUNPATH=/usr/lib64/cinnamon

still RUNPATH not RPATH

https://build.opensuse.org/build/home:MargueriteSu:branches:X11:Cinnamon:Factory/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/x86_64/cinnamon/_log

marguerite · 2015-08-12T03:16:45Z

I found my old changelog, seems I researched on this issue before:

- fix boo#904414: Cinnamon 2.4 Applets fail to load
  * /usr/bin/cinnamon has RUNPATH by default, but only
    RPATH can find /usr/lib(64)/cinnamon/libcinnamon-js.so
    have to explicitly set RPATH=/usr/lib(64)/cinnamon  
  * we use chrpath/patchelf to delete RUNPATH and force
    set RPATH. As RUNPATH will "hide" RPATH and OBS may
    have DT_RUNPATH for all builds, we can never set
    RPATH by patch (the RPATH in Makefiles will end up
    to be RUNPATH anyway)

And since patchelf has a serious bug, this method is no longer available.

Maybe upstream should implement a --disable-runpath configure option.

Kind Remind: the hacky patch won't work if DT_RUNPATH is set, because it only affects RPATH, which will be always hidden in that case.

leigh123linux · 2015-08-12T06:55:18Z

I'm not convinced this is a cinnamon issue

http://trac.kodi.tv/ticket/15497

https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=902421

from your buildlog, so it looks like that you have two build dep packages with broken .pc files

-Wl,-rpath -Wl,/usr/lib64 -Wl,-rpath -Wl,/usr/lib64

This rpath doesn't exist in my build

https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/cinnamon/2.6.13/5.fc22/data/logs/x86_64/build.log

marguerite · 2015-08-12T12:26:18Z

@leigh123linux thanks, I'll fix those pkgconfig files first.

marguerite · 2015-08-12T13:06:32Z

$ cd /usr/lib64/pkgconfig
$ grep -r "Wl" .
./libcrypto.pc:Libs.private: -Wl,-z,relro,-z,now -ldl -lz
./libssl.pc:Libs.private: -Wl,-z,relro,-z,now -ldl -lz
./gmodule-2.0.pc:Libs: -L${libdir} -Wl,--export-dynamic -lgmodule-2.0 -pthread
./gmodule-export-2.0.pc:Libs: -L${libdir} -Wl,--export-dynamic -lgmodule-2.0 -pthread

Here all I can get...should I remove -L${libdir} from gmodule-*.pc?

marguerite · 2015-08-12T13:11:55Z

It's weird, seems i586 wasn't affected

-Wl,-rpath -Wl,/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath -Wl,/usr/lib

doesn't exist, such strings only appears on x86_64

two-dogs · 2015-09-10T08:46:35Z

seeing the error "Window manager warning: Log level 16: Failed to load shared library 'libcinnamon-js.so' referenced by the typelib: libcinnamon-js.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
failed to create drawable" as of last opensuse-cinn-factory-tw upgrade, 10 sep-15, i dont see applets on panel, as described by https://github.com/marguerite previously, i am guessing i can symlink for the time being, and will try same, my xsessions log is here http://git.io/vZldT

System: Host: linux-gumo Kernel: 4.1.6-3-desktop x86_64 (64 bit gcc: 5.1.1) Desktop: KDE Plasma 5.4.0 (Qt 5.4.2) Distro: openSUSE 20150903 (Tumbleweed)

i symlinked the missing libcinnamon-js.so from /usr/lib64/cinnamon/ to /usr/lib64/ , logged in no issue, applets present, working fine.

leigh123linux · 2015-09-10T09:10:59Z

I wonder if this would fix the runpath packaging issue

./configure --disable-static --prefix=/usr
sed -i 's|^hardcode_libdir_flag_spec=.*|hardcode_libdir_flag_spec=""|g' libtool
sed -i 's|^runpath_var=LD_RUN_PATH|runpath_var=DIE_RPATH_DIE|g' libtool

marguerite · 2015-09-10T09:48:48Z

@leigh123linux

Sorry for the late reply, the last "-rpath /usr/lib64 -rpath /usr/lib64" error was coming from openSUSE's gettext-tools. So I spent the last whole month to push the fix.

Yes the method you mentioned will remove the runpath, but there will be no runpath/rpath applied at all. Neither right ones nor wrong ones.

As we discussed before, it is not needed to manually manipulate rpath/runpath now because libcinnamon-js.so is now linked by /usr/bin/cinnamon.

The fixes I did were to make cinnamon being built as upstream' codes intend it to be.

But now the problem is back to what I reported before: cinnamon doesn't behave like what it's coded to be, that is, no rpath on /usr/bin/cinnamon and can find libcinnamon-js.so

Hello,

I'm using opensuse 13.1 64bits whith cinnamon from this repo:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/Cinnamon:/Factory/openSUSE_13.1/

I had the same issue (failed to load shared library 'libcinnamon-js.so') and solved it by creating a new file "/etc/ld.so.conf.d/cinnamon.conf" containing "/usr/lib64/cinnamon". After running "ldconfig" and restarting, the problem was solved.

leigh123linux · 2016-11-28T00:55:47Z

@marguerite Is this still an issue with cinnamon-3.2.x?
