LibreSSL build hangs on `checking size of time_t... 4`

Hi seems like the ARM build hangs while building LibreSSL:

...
[Build]    checking size of time_t... 4
[Build]     ** Warning, this system is unable to represent times past 2038
[Build]     ** It will behave incorrectly when handling valid RFC5280 dates
[Info]     Still working...
[Info]     Still working...
...

Works fine on x64 builds though.

The build command in Dockerfile.template, looks like this, nothing special:

FROM resin/raspberrypi3-alpine-buildpack-deps:latest AS builder

RUN wget https://github.com/libressl-portable/portable/archive/v2.6.4.tar.gz\
  && tar -xvf v2.6.4.tar.gz\
  && cd portable-2.6.4\
  && ./autogen.sh\
  && ./configure --prefix="/usr/local/ssl"\
  && make check\
  && make install

Any ideas?

Hi. We will be looking into this and come back as soon as we have something. Thank you for understanding.

Any luck with this issue on the ARM build machines?

@ab1 I’ve just taken a look at this issue, and the dockerfile you provided. The tweaked file below builds, evenutally. The autogen.sh takes a really long time, but then the next push uses the cached layer so don’t worry too much.

FROM resin/raspberrypi3-alpine-buildpack-deps:latest AS builder

RUN apk --update add libtool autoconf automake

RUN wget https://github.com/libressl-portable/portable/archive/v2.6.4.tar.gz\
  && tar -xvf v2.6.4.tar.gz\
  && cd portable-2.6.4\
  && ./autogen.sh\
  && ./configure --prefix="/usr/local/ssl"\
  && make check\
  && make install

CMD echo "hello world!"

It started working in the last few days without any changes from my side.

That is simultaneously really good and really irritating. Oh well, sometimes these things happen.
