The xz attack shell script
Conan is a package manager for C/C++. See: https://conan.io/.
The way it works is that you can provide "recipes", which are Python scripts, that automate the process of collecting source code (usually from a remote Git repository, or a remote source tarball), patching it, making its dependencies and transitive dependencies available, building for specific platform and architecture (via any number of build systems), then packaging up and serving binaries. There's a lot of complexity involved.
Here are the two recipes I mentioned:
libcurl: https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/blob/master/r...
OpenSSL v3: https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/blob/master/r...
Now, for the sake of this thread I want to highlight three things here:
- Conan recipes are usually made by people unaffiliated with the libraries they're packaging;
- The recipes are fully Turing-complete, do a lot of work, have their own bugs - therefore they should really be treated as software comonents themselves, for the purpose of OSS clearing/supply chain verification, except as far as I know, nobody does it;
- The recipes can, and do, patch source code and build scripts. There's supporting infrastruture for this built into Conan, and of course one can also do it by brute-force search and replace. See e.g. ZLib recipe that does it both at the same time:
https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/blob/7b0ac710... -- `_patch_sources` does both direct search-and-replace in source files, and applies the patches from https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/tree/master/r....
Now, good luck keeping track of what's going on there.

Compiling CrowCPP on Windows and about to kms
It's available in Conan too https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/tree/master/recipes/crowcpp-crow though it's not well maintained so no promises if it's working
-
Is there a way to make sure that my friend on windows can compile my c++ project that i made on linux?
You need something like https://conan.io/center/ to install the dependencies. You're lucky because it works well with CMake.

Unable to compile cardano-cli on fedora due to missing libsodium
this may only be effecting fedora 39 users, but how i resolved it was by going to pkg config repo where then i checked out version 2.0. then i compiled, and installed pkg-config manually. double checked that the version was now 2.0 up from 1.9.5. then went back into the cardano node repo and packages were found successfully during compilation. not sure what is up with pkg-config not working on version 1.9.5 but i'm glad it's over, and hopefully this helps anyone else out suffering from the same thing. may the force be with you all.

Opinion: Don’t ask when [package] will land. It’s impolite and disrespectful of the maintainer’s time, unless you yourself are a maintainer.
pkgconf 1.9 seems to be only an unstable release series that will result in the stable 2.0. See NEWS

Trustworthy Computing in 2021
Is the author the same person that talks about Inclusivity, and then posts screencaps of other people they are having disagreements with to twitter, for their followers to sneer at? [1]
Is this the same person who uses the departure of a developer as a reason to "fix" a community [2], when the mailmap of one of their projects shows they are referring to their own faked departure? [3]
This stuff doesn't make the Alpine Linux project look good. I totally see that its very rude to attack a person like this, but i think its abusive behavior and needs to be called out.
