cmake undefined symbol archive_write_add_filter_zstd

User_IWJFBMay 27 2021 — edited May 27 2021

I started a free 4-core ARM instance on OCI.
I used Oracle Linux, according to the OCI web page it uses:
Oracle-Linux-8.3-aarch64-2021.05.12-0
I logged in and installed cmake using the command:
sudo yum install cmake
When I try to run cmake I get the following error:
cmake: symbol lookup error: cmake: undefined symbol: archive_write_add_filter_zstd
Here is the output from ldd /usr/bin/cmake

Hello.
I had the same problem as you have described.
There is a bug in cmake. You can fix it via upgrade (or downgrade - not preferred).
Best regards.

================

Problem:
# oraclelinux:8
$ dnf install cmake
$ cmake --version

cmake: symbol lookup error: cmake: undefined symbol: archive_write_add_filter_zstd

Solution:

* upgrade
You can install the latest stable version from the official cmake source code repository - https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake, which already have a fix for your problem.

Remove existing cmake:
$ dnf remove cmake

Download newer cmake:
# Download cmake for your aarch64 architecture from https://cmake.org/download/
$ curl -LOJ https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/releases/download/v3.20.3/cmake-3.20.3-linux-aarch64.tar.gz
$ tar -xzf cmake-3.20.3-linux-aarch64.tar.gz

Run cmake:
$ ./cmake-3.20.3-linux-aarch64/bin/cmake --version

   cmake version 3.20.3

* downgrade - not preferred

Downgrade from cmake-3.18.2-9.el8 (currently, this is the default version) to cmake-3.11.4-7.el8.

List available versions:
$ dnf --showduplicate list cmake

   Available Packages  
   cmake.src        3.11.4-3.el8   ol8\_appstream  
   cmake.x86\_64     3.11.4-3.el8   ol8\_appstream  
   cmake.src        3.11.4-7.el8   ol8\_appstream  
   cmake.x86\_64     3.11.4-7.el8   ol8\_appstream  
   cmake.src        3.18.2-9.el8   ol8\_appstream  
   cmake.x86\_64     3.18.2-9.el8   ol8\_appstream

Remove existing cmake:
$ dnf remove cmake

Install older version of cmake:
$ dnf install cmake-3.11.4-7.el8

Run cmake:
$ cmake --version

   cmake version 3.11.4

Yep, AFAIR the problem could also be solved by upgrading or installing libarchive.

User_5D5S8

I do confirm that it can be solved with "dnf install libarchive" as well. Thanks.
