This is false. There are many critics "in Unix", of Makefiles, GNU
Autotools, the C language including its preprocessing, the shell
language, various utilities, POSIX API's, and almost imaginable element
of the whole cornucopia. Many are well-informed, experienced and have
well-reasoned opinions.

And yet I still can't trivially compile pnminvert.c into pnminvert.exe 
using just a C compiler.

I need X, Y and Z to do so under WSL, and it still doesn't work. The 
following is after going through an interactive configure process 
(apparently I need half a dozen existing image DLLs already installed 
(isn't this supposed to replace them?), plus Libxml2, plus flex, plus my 
mingw installation apparently doesn't support all needed features.

Even the message from the config process says, Do not be surprised if 
make fails.

(This stuff always reminds me of the Tootsie-Frootsie sketch from the 
Marx Bros' A Day at the Races. You start with a simple requirement then 
end up with a massive pile of junk that in the end is unusable.)

Unsurprisingly, the existence of critics in the C and Unix world
doesn't magically fix an obscure netpbm build problem.

Looks like the linker doesn't understand the --image-base option.

That option exists somewhere for some good reason.

I can't imagine why something like netpbm would need exotic linker
options, but there is probably some reason it was introduced.

I have this in the man page for ld:

       --image-base value
           Use value as the base address of your program or dll.  This
           is the lowest memory location that will be used when your
           program or dll is loaded.  To reduce the need to relocate
           and improve performance of your dlls, each should have a
           unique base address and not overlap any other dlls.  The
           default is 0x400000 for executables, and 0x10000000 for
           dlls.  [This option is specific to the i386 PE targeted
           port of the linker]

It looks like stray cruft to me, and the value they are using is
the documented default one anyway.

It would be more productive to take this up with the netpbm project
than the comp.lang.c newsgroup.

Quite. I can't imagine why it would need lots of other less exotic 
things too. It's hard to think of a set of tasks that would be more 
portable.

It's just more opportunities for failure and more limited portability.

This is not specific to that product, it's just something that came up, 
which I decided to investigate. But it seems to be quite typical.

I've never seen the above specific problem with the --image-base
passed to the linker.

There are many environments out there; and the people who make the
software only work with a few (sometimes only one). If you only build
your program on Linux, it might not work on WSL, MacOS, Cygwin or
Solaris or what have you.

It's not uncommon for people who build free software programs
("downstream people") into packages and distros to apply patches for one
reason or another.

One problem is that the downstream people don't always communicate
with the developers ("upstream people"). It's less effort to just patch
something in your world, and not inform upstream that you had to do
this.

Sometimes people have a negative experience reporting something
upstream, which results them in having spent extra effort, yet still
having to continue apply their rejected patch. That discourages them
from trying again the next time they have to patch something in the
same program or another.

I've caught distros patching some of my programs for this and that, by
peeking into their repos and bug reporting systems.  I would secretly
fixd the problem, making sure to do in a way such that their patch would
not apply any more. Then watch them pick up a new release and remove the
patch. No e-mails or anything exchanged at all.

You have to give Microsoft a chance. WSL2 came out less than 5 years ago, 
so you can understand it still has a few bugs in it. You can’t expect WSL 
to be the sole focus of its attention, giving it is also trying to port 
Windows to ARM, and acquire game-development companies, and also building 
some kind of AI functionality into Windows.

Wait for the next version, and see if that’s any better.

You keep insisting so. It would be simple enough to prove your point, by 
stripping out this “needless” complexity and proving you can build the 
code much more simply.

Otherwise, you just fall into the “methinks he doth protest too much” 
school of Windows sufferers.

This is exactly what I started doing, with a view to extracting some 
parts of it since I didn't need a 270Kloc library.

Below is as far as I got in about an hour. This reads a PGM file from 
stdin, and writes a PGM file to stdout. This only does the headers. I 
need to decide what processing to do on the image data read from stdin 
before it's passed to stdout; I had in mind simply inverting the data.

However, I just didn't like how it was done. The following is distilled 
quite a bit; if I wrote it, it would be a lot more compact. But 
generally reading and writing files like PGM is so trivial, that it 
would be easier to write it myself from scratch.

I also like to read an entire file into a buffer, and write out an 
entire file, while this code prefers to do that serially. I gave an 
example of how that works now for me:

     a := bmload("test.pgm")
     bmsave("itest.pgm", bmneg(a))

The point is, the C file below, even when completed, needs no special 
configuration process, no scripts, no makefiles, you just use a C compiler:

   c:\c>mcc inv
   Compiling inv.c to inv.exe

   c:\c>inv <test.pgm
   P5
   600 800
   255

But perhaps /you/ can explain why such a INVERT tool would needs such an 
elaborate process:

   c:\net>mcc pnminvert.c
   Compiling pnminvert.c to pnminvert.exe
   netpbm/pm_config.h 18
   Can't find include file in:netpbm/pm.h Line: 17

Even if I use WSL to get a pm_config.h file, it goes wrong on something 
else.

pm_config.h is generated from a combination of pm_config.in.h,
config.mk and possibly inttypes_netpbm.h. And that config.mk is
generated from the Perl configure script. Just think of the amount of
broken code out there, that it has to deal with this sort of thing:

    sub printBadPngConfigCflagsWarning($) {
        my ($pngCFlags) = @_;

        warnUser("'libpng-config' in this environment (a program in your PATH) " .
                 "gives instructions that don't work for compiling for " .
                 "(not linking with) the PNG library.  " .
                 "Our test compile failed.  " .
                 "This indicates Libpng is installed incorrectly " .
                 "on this system.  If so, your Netpbm build, " .
                 "which uses 'libpng-config', will fail.  " .
                 "But it might also just be our test that is broken.");
    }

    sub pngLinkWorksWithLzLmMsg() {

        return
            "When we added \"-lz -lm\" to the linker flags, the link worked.  " .
            "That means the fix for this may be to modify 'libpng-config' " .
            "so that 'libpng-config --ldflags' includes \"-lz -lm\" " .
            "in its output.  But the right fix may actually " .
            "be to build libpng differently so that it specifies its dependency " .
            "on those libraries, or to put those libraries in a different " .
            "place, or to create missing symbolic links.";
    }

    sub printBadPngConfigLdflagsWarning($$) {
        my ($pngLdFlags, $lzLmSuccess) = @_;

        warnUser(
            "'libpng-config' in this environment (a program in your PATH) " .
            "gives instructions that don't work for linking " .
            "with the PNG library.  Our test link failed.  " .
            "This indicates Libpng is installed incorrectly on this system.  " .
            "If so, your Netpbm build, which uses 'libpng-config', will fail.  " .
            "But it might also just be our test that is broken.  " .
            ($lzLmSuccess ? pngLinkWorksWithLzLmMsg : "")
            );
    }

And look, it does supporting building on Windows as well, so maybe
you’re just doing it wrong:

    if ($platform eq "WINDOWS") {
        my ($djgpp, $cygwin);

        if ($OSNAME eq "dos") {
            $djgpp = askAboutDjgpp();
            if ($djgpp) {
                $cygwin = $FALSE;
            } else {
                $cygwin = askAboutCygwin();
            }
        } else {
            $cygwin = askAboutCygwin();
            if ($cygwin) {
                $djgpp = $FALSE;
            } else {
                $djgpp = askAboutDjgpp();
            }
        }

        if ($cygwin) {
            $subplatform = "cygwin";
        } elsif ($djgpp) {
            $subplatform = "djgpp";
        } else {
            $subplatform = "other";
        }
    }

That went wrong too. The third choice was 'mingw' not 'other'; but it 
then says:

"MinGW does not implement enough of the standard on which Netpbm relies 
to build out-of-the-box,"

MingW is pretty much gcc; so what esoteric features of the standard does 
it need?!

netpbm is lots of small self-contained programs. The one I played with 
was pnminvert.c, to negate an image. What does that do? Well, it reads a 
file like this:

P2
6 8
255
121 130 109 88 150 153
133 141 116 110 162 163
145 152 131 66 169 174
159 168 124 60 194 186
173 183 143 55 208 204
169 167 142 89 149 143
65 151 176 156 218 212
28 31 41 102 115 135

And writes out a file like this:

P2
6 8
255
134 125 146 167 105 102
122 114 139 145 93 92
110 103 124 189 86 81
96 87 131 195 61 69
82 72 112 200 47 51
86 88 113 166 106 112
190 104 79 99 37 43
227 224 214 153 140 120

Notice that all the numbers after the three lines of the header, have 
been subtracted from 255.

You can imagine that such a program can be written fairly simply (there 
are 7 different file formats along these lines).

So why on earth do we need all that Perl nonsense to be able to compile 
this one C file?

No need to imagine--the source code is right there in front of you:

    ldo@theon:netpbm-free-11.05.02> wc -l editor/pnminvert.c
    120 editor/pnminvert.c

> Notice that all the numbers after the three lines of the header,

Notice also that the code does not assume that pixel components have to be 
in [0 .. 255].

You've expressed my thoughts exactly. Why should I waste /my/ grappling 
with someone else's mess of a build process?

They invent loads of UNNECESSARY extra hoops to jump through, and expect 
everyone else, even those using different systems that don't even have 
those hoops, to do the same.

You suggested netpbm to avoid reinventing wheels. Sure, if you can 
actually access the wheels and get them to turn!

I take it however that you would never waste your time overhauling any 
process, any product, to make it smaller, tidier, nippier and generally 
more aesthetic?

There is no satisfaction in producing something to be proud of, 
something elegant, instead of taking a big mess of a distribution, 
cramming it into box and scrawling 'makefile' on the side?

A lot of us wonder about that too.  Even stranger, you don't waste your 
time trying to understand the issues you are having, or fixing them, you 
waste all of our times griping about them here - to people who didn't 
make the build systems in question, who aren't in a position to fix 
them, don't have the same problems themselves, and are not at all 
interested in the software in question.  And when we /do/ try to help, 
you don't listen - you just whine more.

I recommend you think hard about what you are doing with all that, and 
perhaps consider spending your time some other way.  Like talking about 
C, or asking questions about the many things you don't understand about 
C.  Even whining about the things you don't like about C would be better 
than whining about things you don't like about build processes!

I was under the impression that applications and libraries that were 
written in C, were written in C.

Apparently I was wrong. It seems almost unheard of to be able to create 
a runnable version of a C program by simply compiling the source code.

Because there's some unwritten rule that they must use at least half the 
features of Linux-Unix in order to achieve that.

How about that, a famously portable language that can only be built if 
you have half of Linux to hand.

For some reason, you seem to be particularly obsessed with C programs that 
you perceive to have this characteristic.

Here’s some simple advice: avoid those C programs, and stick to ones 
written for Microsoft Windows. Problem solved.

Because I do algorithms development, quite often I have to download code 
written by someone else for an academic readership, and not a package 
intended for end users. So the build system is not finely honed, and not 
many other people download that software. And very often getting it to 
build is a serious problem.

And of course whilst I can sometimes choose my platform, generally I 
either can't, or there are ther considerations which mean that ease of 
building things cannot be one.
