Description Anton Guda 2022-04-27 10:48:59 UTC
Description of problem:
Busybox is a special binary, which must be static. However, it requires
so from musl library.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
busybox-1:1.35.0-4.fc37.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpm -Uvh --test busybox-1.35.0-4.fc37.x86_64.rpm

Actual results:
error: Failed dependencies:
ld-musl-x86_64.so.1()(64bit) is needed by busybox-1:1.35.0-4.fc37.x86_64


Expected results:
Clean install without dependencies from any library.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 37 development cycle.
Changing version to 37.

Comment 2 Jonas Ã…dahl 2022-08-16 22:44:13 UTC
This issue breaks using `virtme-run` with -script-sh or -script-exec, as that works by copying the assumingly static /usr/sbin/busybox into a initramfs where it will assume it'll work without external shared objects. It doesn't, however, unless one *also* copies /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 into /lib in the initramfs. Doing that, I'd say is a work around, one should be able to assume /usr/sbin/busybox is a static executable, can one not, assuming no busybox-shared etc is installed.

This applies to F36 too. Should I clone this bug for F36?

Some other observations:

In F35, `ldd /usr/sbin/busybox` gives me "not a dynamic executable" while on F36 I get

	linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffc89161000)
	ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 => /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 (0x00007fa94925e000)

From busybox-1.35.0-4.fc36.x86_64:

$ rpm -qi busybox | grep Summary
Summary     : Statically linked binary providing simplified versions of system commands

$ rpm -qlv busybox | grep /usr/sbin

$ ldd /usr/sbin/busybox

        ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 => /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 (0x00007f4f4f6aa000)

Not static at all. :(

As another data point, this broke the upgrade of the RH kernel CI infrastructure from FC35 -> FC37 as the busybox executable was used standalone 😂.
