Help installing corosync from tar file

nbsjbsd · Dec 19, 2015

Hey all,

I'm messing around with HA on FreeBSD. I managed to get CARP going as well as HAST but I want more control on a cluster than HAST can give. Given that I have a fair amount of experience with Corosync and Pacemaker I thought it would make sense to go that route.

I've run into an issue when running ./configure while trying to install Corosync. The process craps out at nss with this error:

Code:

checking for nss... configure: error: in `/root/heartbeat/corosync-2.3.3':
configure: error: The pkg-config script could not be found or is too old.  Make sure it
is in your PATH or set the PKG_CONFIG environment variable to the full
path to pkg-config.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables nss_CFLAGS
and nss_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

I've looked unsuccessfully for a package called pkg-config and nss appears to be installed as you can see from this output:

Code:

root@wellesley:~/heartbeat/corosync-2.3.3 # pkg install nss
Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...
FreeBSD repository is up-to-date.
All repositories are up-to-date.
Checking integrity... done (0 conflicting)
The most recent version of packages are already installed

Anyone got any ideas where to start on this?

Thanks

The scripts tries to detect nss using pkg-config but the devel/pkg-config port is long gone from FreeBSD ports was replaced by devel/pkgconf. From /usr/ports/UPDATING:

Code:

20120726:
AFFECTS: users of devel/pkg-config
AUTHOR: bapt@FreeBSD.org

devel/pkg-config has been replaced by devel/pkgconf

# portmaster -o devel/pkgconf devel/pkg-config
or
# portupgrade -fo devel/pkgconf pkg-config-\*

pkgng:
# pkg set -o devel/pkg-config:devel/pkgconf
# pkg install -f devel/pkgconf

Try installing devel/pkgconf first with # pkg install pkgconf. If that doesn't work you'll have to fix the configure script yourself to make use of the installed devel/pkgconf.

Since there is no port for corosync could you make a FreeBSD port out of it yourself if you're successful in building it (and the other one too)? The process isn't that hard, ask for help here or on the freebsd-ports mailing list. Start here:

If I get it working I'll give it a shot.

Hey thanks for that - it got me one step closer. Now I just have to figure out this error:

Code:

checking for LIBQB... configure: error: Package requirements (libqb) were not met:
Package libqb was not found in the pkg-config search path.

Missing library obviously. I'll dig around unless someone has some ideas.
