Setting PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR overrides compiled default. This helps reduce
opportunistic linkage when pkg-config call finds modules installed on
system but not included in a formula's dependency tree.
- Previously I thought that comments were fine to discourage people from
wasting their time trying to bump things that used `undef` that Sorbet
didn't support. But RuboCop is better at this since it'll complain if
the comments are unnecessary.
- Suggested in https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/pull/18018#issuecomment-2283369501.
- I've gone for a mixture of `rubocop:disable` for the files that can't
be `typed: strict` (use of undef, required before everything else, etc)
and `rubocop:todo` for everything else that should be tried to make
strictly typed. There's no functional difference between the two as
`rubocop:todo` is `rubocop:disable` with a different name.
- And I entirely disabled the cop for the docs/ directory since
`typed: strict` isn't going to gain us anything for some Markdown
linting config files.
- This means that now it's easier to track what needs to be done rather
than relying on checklists of files in our big Sorbet issue:
```shell
$ git grep 'typed: true # rubocop:todo Sorbet/StrictSigil' | wc -l
268
```
- And this is confirmed working for new files:
```shell
$ git status
On branch use-rubocop-for-sorbet-strict-sigils
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
Library/Homebrew/bad.rb
Library/Homebrew/good.rb
nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)
$ brew style
Offenses:
bad.rb:1:1: C: Sorbet/StrictSigil: Sorbet sigil should be at least strict got true.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This leads to undesired linkage with LLVM's `libunwind` (because it
shadows the system's `libunwind`).
See, for example, Homebrew/homebrew-core#169354.
In some deprecated MacOS, e.g.10.13 High Sierra, when compiling formulae with --cc=gcc-XX, homebrew will raise "TypeError: Return value: Expected type Symbol, got type String with value".
Convert "other" string to symbol to solve this.
Having this would have been, or would be, useful on multiple occassions:
- Homebrew/homebrew-core#94724
- Homebrew/homebrew-core#136551
- #15372
I think it's time that we added this back.
Many (~60) formulae in Homebrew/core set this manually to prevent the
`openssl` Rust crate from vendoring OpenSSL.
Let's make handling this simpler by setting it globally instead.
Invoking `ld` with `-undefined dynamic_lookup` emits a warning starting
Xcode 14:
ld: warning: -undefined dynamic_lookup may not work with chained fixups
Chained fixups is a linker optimisation that results in faster binary
load times, and is enabled by default starting Xcode 13 when the target
is macOS 12 or newer.
However, this interacts poorly with `-undefined dynamic_lookup`, and
Xcode will disable chained fixups when it is invoked with this flag
starting Xcode 14.3. Until then, we may be shipping binaries that are
broken in subtle ways, so let's disable chained fixups when necessary
instead.
I patterned the changes here after the handling of `-no_weak_imports`.
The only difference is that we need to check the flags that were passed
to the linker first to see if we do need to disable chained fixups.

The compiler used to a build a formula is typically not needed during
the test.
This will allow us to get rid of some `:test` dependencies, which were
added to prevent `brew` from throwing a `CompilerSelectionError` because
the formula declares `fails_with` the default compiler.
This also helps us get more accurate results from `brew linkage` in
cases of unintended linkage with the compiler used to build.
Fixes#11795.
Some formulae declare multiple Python dependencies, and they can appear
in any order in the `deps` array. Let's make sure to prefer the newest
one when adding their `libexec/"bin"` directory to `PATH`.
When Homebrew/homebrew-core#107517 is merged, builds will no longer be
able to find `python@3.9` as `python3`. This is also what is likely to
happen to `python@3.10` when we add a `python@3.11`.
This is likely to break many builds, so let's make sure they can keep
finding a `python3` for formulae that don't have a dependency on the
latest Python3.
This is arguably something we should've done earlier: it also means that
builds that go looking for an unversioned `python` end up finding our
Python3 (whenever present in the build environment) instead of, say,
`/usr/bin/python` which is typically Python2.
