Describe the bug
Unable to install sytest's perl dependencies following step 3 in README.md.

To Reproduce

  1. Clone sytest repo. Setup perl env vars as in the readme.
  2. ./install-deps.pl
  3. This fails when installing Alien::Sodium. There's a complaint when building libsodium about alignment.
make[3]: Entering directory '/home/dmr/.local/share/.cpan/build/Alien-Sodium-1.0.8.0-2/_alien/libsodium-1.0.8/src/libsodium'

I think this is now causing sytest:testing to fail to build.

See the action and a specific run: https://github.com/matrix-org/sytest/runs/4091959405?check_suite_focus=true#step:5:4467

I'm guessing this happened after https://tracker.debian.org/news/1272843/gcc-defaults-1194-migrated-to-testing/ (the timing seems about right)

Indeed:

gcc-defaults (1.192) experimental; urgency=medium

  * Default to GCC 11.

I think we need to migrate away from Crypt::NaCl::Sodium, which seems to be abandonware.

https://metacpan.org/pod/Crypt::Ed25519 seems to be a good alternative, however to be able to drop Crypt::NaCl::Sodium altogether we need our dependencies (in particular Protocol::Matrix) to also drop it. To that end, I've filed https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=140079.

neilalexander added a commit that referenced this issue Dec 9, 2021
This marks the `testing` image as experimental and allows the builds of the stable images to continue even if the experimental ones fail.

It's nice to know when something in `testing` will break CI for a future Debian version, but it probably shouldn't stop us from successfully building existing images based on the stable distributions.

looks like @leonerd doesn't have time to update Protocol::Matrix right now, so to avoid this being a blocker for us, let's just vendor my patched version in to sytest. (it's only 317 lines).

richvdh added a commit that referenced this issue Jan 5, 2022
First we vendor in `Protocol::Matrix`. Then we patch it to use `Crypt::Ed25519` instead of `Crypt::NaCl::Sodium`. Then we switch the rest of sytest to use `Crypt::Ed25519`.

Hopefully fixes #1114, and generally makes sytest a whole lot easier to install.
