Build .NET Core 6 under FreeBSD

  • Just a collection of script and patches put up into one place, to help getting automated builds.
  • For other versions, check proper tag with that name.
  • For common errors, look below.

Usage

  1. Run as root install_tools.sh
  2. init.sh
  3. build_runtime.sh
  4. (try to skip this and goto build_aspnetcore.sh) build_installer_without_aspnet.sh
  5. run tar zxfv ../../installer/artifacts/packages/Release/Shipping/dotnet-sdk-6.0.101-freebsd-x64.tar.gz inside aspnetcore/.dotnet to extract newly created SDK
  6. build_aspnetcore.sh
  7. build_installer.sh
  8. Get and use installer/artifacts/packages/Release/Shipping/dotnet-sdk-6.0.101-freebsd-x64.tar.gz
  9. clean.sh if you want to save disk space after use
  10. gather_output.sh to tar artifacts into one big file, for future use (doesn't make sense to compress this, as it contains compressed files already)

NB: you can use output SDK as seed (instead of the one that was crosscompiled), move it here and rename to sdk.tgz

Errors

If you get error like The author primary signature validity period has expired or The repository countersignature validity period has expired, this should fix it (run as root):

mv /usr/share/certs/blacklisted/VeriSign_Universal_Root_Certification_Authority.pem /usr/share/certs/trusted
certctl rehash

Don't do this on your production machine!

  • build may fail with SEHException - if you're on VM, try to limit CPU count to 1

Requirments

  1. Working SDK for FreeBSD - at the moment it's using binaries from https://github.com/Thefrank/dotnet-freebsd-crossbuild created during crosscompile under Linux
  2. Tested under FreeBSD 12.2, 12.3 and 13.0-STABLE/RELEASE
  3. 8GB+ of RAM recommended (with 4GB I saw some parts crashing)
  4. To run built SDK pkg install libunwind icu libinotify should be enough
