Task
Task: jq-static

jq 1.8.1 is a command-line JSON utility for viewing and transforming JSON.
Project link: github.com/jqlang/jq

Task:
Compile and install statically-linked jq to a specific location.

Difficulties:
Static linking requires correctly configuring the build.

Environment:
Ubuntu 22.04 on amd64, without internet access.

Execution log
SYSTEM

You are a package-building specialist operating a Ubuntu 22.04 bash shell via one tool: run_terminal_cmd.
The current working directory of every run_terminal_cmd is /home/peter.
Execution rules:
- Always pass non-interactive flags for any command that could prompt (e.g., -y, --yes, DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive).
- Don't include any newlines in the command.
- The environment is offline, assume you have all the necessary tools already installed.
If you encounter any errors or issues while doing the user's request, you must fix them and continue the task.
At the end verify you did the user request correctly.

USER

You are given a jq v1.8.1 source code at /home/peter/jq.tar.gz. Please compile the jq package and install it to /home/peter/result. Create a symlink from /home/peter/result/jq to the compiled jq binary. The binary should be statically linked.

Troubleshooting static build creation

I'm exploring how to make the final binary fully static by modifying build flags and configuration, especially focusing on passing -all-static to libtool during linking and ensuring LDFLAGS and CFLAGS include -static. I’m considering cleaning the build thoroughly and editing src/Makefile or environment variables to enforce static linking while accounting for dependencies and common pitfalls with glibc static linking.

compile-bench> cd jq-1.8.1 && sed -n '1,160p' src/Makefile
sed: can't read src/Makefile: No such file or directory

Reconfiguring build environment for static linking

I'm planning to rerun configure with static-related flags like LDFLAGS=-static and CFLAGS=-O2, then patch the generated Makefile (and maybe src/Makefile) to set jq_LDFLAGS = -all-static via sed. This should ensure static linking, but I’m aware Linux static builds might still face library dependency issues.

Summarizing final verification steps

Built jq v1.8.1 from /home/peter/jq.tar.gz with static linking by configuring with --disable-shared --enable-static, setting LDFLAGS=-static, enabling jq_LDFLAGS=-all-static, and compiling/installing into /home/peter/result. Confirmed the resulting binary at /home/peter/result/bin/jq is statically linked (ldd reports “not a dynamic executable”). Created the symlink /home/peter/result/jq → /home/peter/result/bin/jq. All requested artifacts are in place.

Task finished successfully, all checks passed!
Checks passed:
jq binary exists
jq is statically linked
jq works
