Bug ID: 425652
Summary: Directory path with dot leads to failing MacOS builds
Product: frameworks-kwindowsystem
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: macOS
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: m...@xyquadrat.ch
CC: vonr...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
When building applications that in some way depend on KWindowSystems on MacOS,
the codesign executable crashes and leaves the build failing (see e.g.
https://binary-factory.kde.org/view/MacOS/job/Elisa_Nightly_macos/900/).
According to Hannah, this is the case because of the . (dots) in the directory
name, which for some reason codesign program by Apple doesn't like at all. If
we could remove these dots, we wouldn't need to blacklist KWindowSystems for
nearly every single application on Binary Factory.
I believe that the path with dots comes from the last line of this file:
https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kwindowsystem/-/blob/master/src/config-kwindowsystem.h.cmake
Given that I have absolutely no experience with the code, I am reluctant to
change something, as I have no idea where this could break things.
