Hello team! I'm maintaining goose CLI in openSUSE & i have observed that the latest version has introduced the v8 crate as dependency to the project. Since OBS does not allow downloading binaries from internet during build time, it's throwing an err [ 203s] error: failed to run custom build command for v8 v145.0.0

Does the goose-cli crate really need the v8 engine as build / runtime dependency? Your help is greatly appreciated

I have to build v8 from source, if the CLI is dependent on it

hi - sorry for the slow reply. I'm guessing we use v8 for the code mode that we have. @alexhancock could we make this an optional dependency and not have code mode if not found?

v8 build form source is causing this err?! L88 @ https://build.opensuse.org/projects/science:machinelearning:mcp/packages/goose/files/goose.spec?expand=1

bumped to 1.27.1 and have the same error with ahash 😕

https://build.opensuse.org/package/live_build_log/science:machinelearning:mcp/goose/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/x86_64

Looks like the no default flag did not disable the v8 build ?

%{cargo_build} --package goose-cli --no-default-features --features disable-update

@jh-block any way we can temporarily bye pass this ?

Hmm, very odd. It seems to work correctly here:

🐚 ~/dev/goose (v1.27.1) cargo tree -p goose-cli -i v8 -e features
v8 v145.0.0 (/Users/jhugo/dev/goose/vendor/v8)

│   │   │       │           │       │   └── goose-cli feature "default" (command-line)

vs.

🐚 ~/dev/goose (v1.27.1) cargo tree --no-default-features -p goose-cli -i v8 -e features
error: package ID specification `v8` did not match any packages

I also installed cargo-auditable to try to match the build process in the build log and ran the same command cargo auditable build --offline --locked --release --package goose-cli --no-default-features --features disable-update as the build log shows. The build completed successfully and I confirmed from the output that v8 was not built. I suspect that I didn't fully replicate your build environment though.

My suspicion is that cargo always evaluates the registry patch (at the end of Cargo.toml in the repository root) that we use to override the v8 dependency, even when the dependency is not used. And some interaction between the way it handles patched dependencies and the vendoring that you're doing is causing the failure.

A workaround would be to remove those last two lines from the Cargo.toml in the repository root; they are not needed since you are building without code mode.
