Summary

0014855: Unpacking Qt 5.2.1 source distribution fails (ExternalProject_Add)

Description

The Qt project offers their source code as a ZIP file for Windows systems[1]. CMake fails to extract the file with the error message “archive_read_next_header(): Invalid central directory signature”[2] when using it as an external project via ExternalProject_Add. Upstream libarchive fixed an issue in this direction, which may be related: <http://code.google.com/p/libarchive/issues/detail?id=257>. [^]

Notes
(0035588) David Cole (manager) 2014-03-31 15:15	As a workaround, until this is addressed/fixed, you can simply switch to using the *.tar.gz file -- that works, even on Windows. I just built Qt 5.2.1 that way last week actually. However, I had to patch the source tree to add missing ".gitignore" files (at the root and in qtbase) in order to get "configure.bat" to work properly...

(0035589) Brad King (manager) 2014-03-31 15:17	CMake supports building against an external libarchive. Can you please try building upstream libarchive and CMake from source with CMAKE_USE_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_LIBARCHIVE on?

(0035590) hansmi (reporter) 2014-03-31 15:34	Thank you for the quick responses! I first reproduced the issue on my main Linux machine running Debian Jessie/testing. Then I proceeded to build libarchive from upstream's Git master branch (revision 00f4bd8) and linked a custom CMake build against it. I can confirm that the archive can now be unpacked.

(0035591) Brad King (manager) 2014-03-31 15:44	Re 0014855:0035590: Great, thanks for trying that so quickly. I will look at updating CMake's builtin libarchive.

(0035692) Brad King (manager) 2014-04-14 09:37	I've updated libarchive in our Git master branch: Merge topic 'update-libarchive' http://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=commitdiff;h=11a6b3d5 [^]
