staticfloat/homebrew-julia

small repository to install julia

This tap is not actively maintained

To install Julia through homebrew, use Homebrew cask; brew cask install julia.

To install Julia from source, follow the instructions on the main Julia github repo.

This tap is still published as an example of how to build Julia and various dependencies for the curious and enterprising dev looking to build Julia on Homebrew.

homebrew-julia

A small tap for the Homebrew project to install Julia. Installation instructions:

$ brew update
$ brew tap staticfloat/julia
$ brew install julia

Common Issues

If you are building Julia from source and you see errors about libgfortran.dylib, you most likely need to reinstall the latest gcc, openblas-julia, suite-sparse-julia and arpack-julia:

$ brew update
$ brew rm gcc openblas-julia suite-sparse-julia arpack-julia
$ brew install gcc openblas-julia suite-sparse-julia arpack-julia 

See this thread for technical details as to why gfortran dependencies require this treatment.

Building a bleeding-edge version of Julia

If you wish to test the newest development version of Julia, you can build with the --HEAD option:

$ brew install --HEAD julia

Note that to run the test suite you must also pass the --HEAD option to brew:

$ brew test -v --HEAD julia

Using OpenBLAS HEAD or specifying CPU targets

If you wish to test the newest development version of OpenBLAS with Julia, you can do so by manually unlinking OpenBLAS, and installing the HEAD version of the formula:

$ brew unlink openblas-julia
$ brew install openblas-julia --HEAD

This will install the latest develop branch of OpenBLAS. Julia will happily link against this new version, but unfortunately SuiteSparse will not, so we must recompile SuiteSparse and therefore Julia:

$ brew rm suite-sparse-julia julia
$ brew install julia

When installing OpenBLAS on that shiny new piece of hardware that just came out, note that OpenBLAS may not have the software available to autodetect your processor type. You can manually specify a CPU target architecture by specifying --target when building OpenBLAS. For instance, to specify the Sandybridge archiceture (a good fallback for most modern macs):

$ brew install openblas-julia --target=SANDYBRIDGE

Rebuilding the system image

When building Julia, the file base/userimg.jl, if it exists, will be included in the cached of compiled code. If there are large libraries that you use often, it can be useful to require those in this file, for example:

require("Gtk")
require("DataFrames")
require("JuMP")

By default, the userimg.jl file does not exist, but you can create it yourself and then rebuild the Julia system image. Place a userimg.jl file into /usr/local/Cellar/julia/<julia version>/share/julia/base (Assuming Homebrew has been installed to /usr/local), then run build_sysimg.jl (located in the folder immediatebly above the base directory) to rebuild the system image. The script has many options, to see them all run ./build_sysimg.jl --help, but if you just want to replace the current system image with the new one you're about to build (and most people do just want that) simply run:

$ ./build_sysimg.jl --force

Upgrading Julia

To upgrade Julia, remove and reinstall (Typically you will be doing this when living on the latest development version, so we have included all --HEAD commands here):

$ brew rm julia
$ brew install --HEAD julia

Run tests after upgrading to make sure everything is functioning as expected. Even when Julia is able to build, the tests might still fail due to dependencies.

$ brew test -v --HEAD julia

If compilation of Julia fails, or the tests fail, you may have to remove these dependencies and recompile:

$ brew rm julia arpack-julia suite-sparse-julia openblas-julia
$ brew install -v --HEAD julia && brew test -v --HEAD julia

This procedure is necessary after upgrading gcc, as the location of the gfortran libraries changes.

Outdated SHA in openblas64-julia.rb

I got this error when trying to install 64 bit julia:

Updating the formula to the 'actual' SHA fixed the install error:

I think the 32 bit openblas-julia.rb may also need to be updated.

brew install --HEAD -v julia

The error output is:

Julia brew fails on OS X 10.7.5-x86_64

https://gist.github.com/ghuiber/4720025

fftw seems a duplicate for homebrew's fftw

If you have already brew install fftw, then the (sym)linking step of julia fails.

brew link julia
Linking /usr/local/Cellar/julia/HEAD... 
Error: Could not symlink file: /usr/local/Cellar/julia/HEAD/lib/libfftw3.dylib
Target /usr/local/lib/libfftw3.dylib already exists. You may need to delete it.
To force the link and delete this file, do:
  brew link -f formula_name

To list all files that would be deleted:
  brew link -n formula_name

Install fails with undefined symbols apparently from LAPACK

I'm trying to install julia with brew install --HEAD -v julia.

I ran into two related problems:

1. When installing and failing, the linker warns:
   ld: warning: directory not found for option '-L-lopenblas'
   and then it fails with

I found the problem to lie in one of the patches which assumes that the environment variable USRLIB is defined and then defines LIBBLAS as -L$(USRLIB) -lopenblas

Since by default this environment variable is undefined, -L -lopenblas didn't work.

1. When installing with USRLIB=/usr/local/Cellar/openblas/0.2.4/lib brew install --HEAD -v julia, this time openblas was found but there are still missing symbols:
   Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64: "_dlarf_", referenced from: void spqr_private_apply1<double>(long, long, long, double*, double, double*, double*, cholmod_common_struct*) in libspqr.a(spqr_front.o) "_dlarfb_", referenced from: void spqr_larftb<double>(int, long, long, long, long, long, double*, double*, double*, double*, cholmod_common_struct*) in libspqr.a(spqr_larftb.o) "_dlarfg_", referenced from: double spqr_private_house<double>(long, double*, cholmod_common_struct*) in libspqr.a(spqr_front.o) "_dlarft_", referenced from: void spqr_larftb<double>(int, long, long, long, long, long, double*, double*, double*, double*, cholmod_common_struct*) in libspqr.a(spqr_larftb.o) "_zlarf_", referenced from: void spqr_private_apply1<std::complex<double> >(long, long, long, std::complex<double>*, std::complex<double>, std::complex<double>*, std::complex<double>*, cholmod_common_struct*) in libspqr.a(spqr_front.o) "_zlarfb_", referenced from: void spqr_larftb<std::complex<double> >(int, long, long, long, long, long, std::complex<double>*, std::complex<double>*, std::complex<double>*, std::complex<double>*, cholmod_common_struct*) in libspqr.a(spqr_larftb.o) "_zlarfg_", referenced from: std::complex<double> spqr_private_house<std::complex<double> >(long, std::complex<double>*, cholmod_common_struct*) in libspqr.a(spqr_front.o) "_zlarft_", referenced from: void spqr_larftb<std::complex<double> >(int, long, long, long, long, long, std::complex<double>*, std::complex<double>*, std::complex<double>*, std::complex<double>*, cholmod_common_struct*) in libspqr.a(spqr_larftb.o)
   Googling this symbols makes me think LAPACK should be linked. But I'm stuck here.

I'm running Mountain Lion and the doctor tells me I'm good to go. Any idea on how to fix this?

Error: openblas-julia did not build

I went through previous issues posted here and none of them seemed to match this one. I even tried building openblas-julia with the --use-clang flag with no success. Any ideas what the issue may be?

version.jl fatal: No names found, cannot describe anything.

Getting the following messages
version.jl
fatal: No names found, cannot describe anything.
linalg.jl
Warning: replacing module Base
version.jl
fatal: No names found, cannot describe anything.

Similar issue was stated here JuliaLang/julia#2747

Building Julia outside of the homebrew environment does not produce such errors.

Despite the above fatal errors Julia builds but running the test
$brew test -v julia
produces the following output

lighttpd, fftw, arpack-ng cannot be linked. Homebrew has it already.

Looks like lighttpd is built by julia, right? It's a dupe to homebrew's and that can make the brew link to fail. See below:

OpenBLAS/LAPACKE build fails on Haswell

I incurred in a slightly contorted series of problems installing Julia on a Haswell machine running Mavericks. There seemed to be no difference between 64-bit and 32-bit mode. (This also affects builds straight from JuliaLang/julia. I opened the issue here because I was able to find a simple workaround that works well with brew.)

Here is what happens when I try to use the Julia tap. With a straight brew install julia, the build fails because the linked version of OpenBLAS can't detect the CPU. (See OpenBLAS #332.)

make: *** [getarch_2nd] Error 1
Makefile:127: *** OpenBLAS: Detecting CPU failed.

Fair enough. Since Haswell detection and optimization are included in OpenBLAS develop, I can brew install openblas-julia --HEAD before Julia and other dependencies. Alternatively, I can just work around the detection by passing the --target flag without pulling develop. Unfortunately both these builds fail as as I hit the rather quirky OpenBLAS #334, a problem with the lapacke makefile.

make[3]: *** [../../../libopenblas_haswellp-r0.2.9.rc1.a] Error 1
make[2]: *** [lapacke] Error 2
make[1]: *** [lapackelib] Error 2
make: *** [netlib] Error 2

The solution I have found so far is to add this patch to the openblas-julia formulae. The patch can only be applied to the lapacke makefile as of OpenMathLib/OpenBLAS@d518681 (currently in develop but not master), so it is still necessary to install openblas manually rather than letting the Julia formula resolve it as a dependency.

A fork including these changes can be found at ndr-qef/homebrew-julia. On my machine, and with the caveats mentioned above, Julia builds and the tests pass.

You might want to push a fix that includes the makefile patch when OpenBLAS is compiled from head, but the result would be brittle: builds will fail if the makefile is changed in the develop branch. If the problem is uncommon enough, the risk is to break more installs than we fix.

The alternative would be to simply let those who have this issue temporarily tap the fork and wait for the fix to be applied upstream.

README.md - Homebrew's Python is framework on default now

You might want to update (simplify) the readme. No need for --framework. I changed that to be always the case.

Sometimes upgrading needing to remove all dependencies

Perhaps this is because I haven't upgraded julia for a while, but when I upgraded it by brew rm then brew install --HEAD, it installs fine but brew test -v julia fails. Then I removed everything brew rm julia arpack-julia suite-sparse-julia, reinstalled, and then test passes. Is this a bug or should it just be in the readme as part of upgrade instruction?

Julia fails to build because of absence of julia-release-webserver in recent versions of julia

Running the formula with the debug key I get

BuildError: Failed executing: install_name_tool -add_rpath /usr/X11/lib /usr/local/Cellar/julia/HEAD/bin/julia-release-webserver

The problem is easy to fix by commenting out line 189

system "install_name_tool", "-add_rpath", rpath, "#{bin}/julia-#{target}-webserver"

There is no julia-release-webserver in recent versions of julia.

Hi, I got:

You may want to create an API token: https://github.com/settings/applications
and then set HOMEBREW_GITHUB_API_TOKEN.

The second error just came in addition, I don't know what either means.

Cheers,

Caching git submodules

@samueljohn, I'm pinging you on this to get your input. I'm going through and cleaning up this formula, and I thought it would be neat to do the same trick with the submodules Julia uses (libuv, nginx, etc....) as you did with the downloaded copy of LAPACK in OpenBLAS; I want to make mini-formulae out of them and have Homebrew control the downloading of them rather than Julia, so that we don't have to re-download the entire git repo every time we update.

Do you know if this is possible/easy? If so, could you point me toward how to actually do it? Thanks! I'll incorporate it into this refresh of the formula, which should also address #15, allow us to build both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Julia, and all her dependencies, and be able to choose Accelerate-backed Julia or OpenBLAS-backed Julia!

Error: julia: failed

It looks like I installed Julia correctly with brew install --HEAD -v julia (output here). However, when I try to run the tests I get the following simple error message:

~  brew test -v julia

Error: julia: failed

Among others, brew doctor gives the following (I think irrelevant?) message:

Warning: Some keg-only formula are linked into the Cellar.
Linking a keg-only formula, such as gettext, into the cellar with
`brew link <formula>` will cause other formulae to detect them during
the `./configure` step. This may cause problems when compiling those
other formulae.

Binaries provided by keg-only formulae may override system binaries
with other strange results.

You may wish to `brew unlink` these brews:

Errors in suitesparse when compiling

When I attempt to compile, I get the error shown here.

Any ideas?

Unable to install after gfortran update

Hello,

The gfortran package in homebrew is dead atm. But I installed it manually.

I wanted to update my 64bit version of Julia, but after removing all the dependencies, my tests still fail. I'm curious what could cause this?

I'm running 10.8 and v. 4.8 of gfortran

Could not tap staticfloat/julia/suite-sparse

Hi SF,

I got the following error. I hope it's helpful to report it here.

Has the julia/suite-sparse repo moved?

$ brew install gfortran

Problems with gfortran-4.2

it wouldn't compile under gfortran 4.2. so that installing a newer gfortran instruction is now mandatory. should this be made into a 1-step process? i.e.

brew tap staticfloat/julia
brew install --HEAD julia

would also install homebrew/dupes/gcc --enable-fortran

fail to install: library not found for -lLLVMAsmParser

Have recently performed:

brew update
brew rm llvm && brew install --build-from-source llvm

and reinstalled newest Apple CL tools

Output from

brew install --HEAD -v julia

is here.
