Extrae build fails because of removed file

[quentin-ag]

Level

Minor

Component

Extrae

Environment

• COMPSs version: 2.7
• Java version: 1.8.0
• Python version: 3.8.5
• GCC version: 10.2.0
• Operating System: Linux (Manjaro)[1]

[1] successfully reproduced on Debian 10, CentOS 7 and Arch Linux.

Description

The build process of Extrae fails because a necessary file cannot be found. The logs show that it is removed.

Minimal example to reproduce

cd ${compss_src}/builders
./buildlocal ${compss_target}

The error can then be reproduced with the same command as executed by buildlocal:

cd ${compss_src}/builders/tmp/dependencies/extrae
./install ${compss_target}/Dependencies/extrae true

Exception

./install ${targetDir}/Dependencies/extrae true exits during the make clean install instruction with the error message

chmod: cannot access '${compss_target}/Dependencies/extrae/etc/extrae-vars.sh': No such file or directory

Below is the relevant excerpt from the full output:

N.B. I have overwritten some file paths, such as ${compss_src}.

Expected behaviour and workaround

The build should not fail. Supposedly, ${compss_target}/Dependencies/extrae/etc/extrae-vars.sh should not be removed.
I worked around the issue by not removing it at all:

diff --git a/etc/Makefile.am b/etc/Makefile.am
index 8ff09aeb..5ea9db2d 100644
--- a/etc/Makefile.am

This modification solved the issue for me. However, it does not look like a clean fix.

This bug seems to be in the Extrae part. We are trying to migrate to de master branch. I will contact you to check if the issue still fails with this version. If it will not fix the issue, we will forward the error to Extrae team.
