Description
Trying to build 2.16.0 on OpenBSD with python 2.7, py-qt4 4.11.4 and py-sip 4.16.8, i always get a python process segfault when pyuic-wrapper.sh is called (with random inputs, in the several .ui files shipped within qgis..)
FAILED: python/plugins/GdalTools/tools/ui_widgetGrid.py
cd /home/obj/ports/qgis-2.16.0/build-amd64/python/plugins/GdalTools/tools && /usr/obj/ports/qgis-2.16.0/qgis-2.16.0/scripts/pyuic-wrapper.s

and everytime the traceback is the same:

Of course building 2.14.3 with the same py-qt4/py-sip versions has no issues... so what could have changed in qgis python core that triggers this ? I dont see anything dubious in python/core/qgsfeaturerequest.sip git log, maybe the python 3 migration ongoing work ?

And fwiw, i managed to build qgis 2.14.4 without issues in the same environment, but it crashes in the exact same way at startup.

Not sure, sorry. I doubt it's a dependency version issue, since it compiles ok even on trusty. This sip stuff is really a whole lot of black magic and very hard the troubleshoot when things go wrong.

Well, reverting 1bc17e6 locally allows me to build 2.16.0, and it starts fine...
So the problem seems to lie in assigning a default value to a method argument which isnt "a simple type", or maybe because it's a static member ? I agree with you that this sip stuff is black magic, and i know nothing to python either :)

With 2.16.1 and the commit reverted, qgis crashes at startup on a different sip call stack..
#0 0x0000083fa3a8f4d5 in sip_api_get_reference () from /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sip.so

#2 0x0000083fa3a9a7a9 in sipVariableDescr_descr_get () from /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sip.so
That stuff is fragile as hell.

And if i come back to 2.16.0, it now does a SIGBUS at startup, with a different trace, but also related to qgis version check..

And it seems that 'new' failure on qgis version checking is a fallout of c9838cc which was also backported to 2.16 branch. sigh.

And locally reverting c9838cc too allows me to run 2.16.1. Something's wrong somewhere with sip and static non-basic types ? Jürgen, any idea ?
#9
Updated by landry Landry Breuil over 7 years ago
Fwiw, updating sip from 4.16.8 to 4.18.1 seems to fix all the build & runtime issues..

Updated by Nyall Dawson over 7 years ago
Maybe the minimum sip version should be bumped as a result..?

trusty has SIP 4.15.5/PyQt4 4.10.4/Qt 4.8.6 and apparently doesn't have these issues (see http://dash.orfeo-toolbox.org/viewConfigure.php?buildid=241408).
