We use curl in LibreOffice development. Recently, a new contributor building LibreOffice on Debian 11 noticed that curl's Makefile in LibreOffice's workdir took 1.5 terabytes of space. This was observed with curl 7.85.0 and persists with 7.86.0.

While I don't see this infinite ballooning myself, my Makefile does get unusually large, 13.2 MiB. I am pasting below the result of printing duplicate lines with counts. This is on Arch Linux.

$ sort workdir/UnpackedTarball/curl/lib/Makefile | uniq -cd

I've seen this happen as well but I've not figured out why or what causes it...

Though this may not be a curl bug it would still be nice to know what causes it if you are able to bisect it.

I cloned curl repository and I can't repro the size problem after running configure with the options that LibreOffice uses. Makefile size is 68 KiB.

automake is 1.16.5

The 7.86.0 tarballs were made with 1.16.5 too, more specifically the 1.16.5-1.3 package in debian (unstable).

Sorry, this is not true: I was looking at the wrong Makefile! lib/Makefile does grow to 13.2 MiB.

The 628 number is curious. It seems to be the number of lib source files times two!

$ cd [curl-src]/lib
$ find . -name "*.[ch]" | wc -l

I tried running autoreconf and configure for a bunch of older tags, down to 7.32.0 or 70812c2. The size of the Makefile kept getting smaller, but is still 6.6 MiB at 7.32.0, with the repetition number being 448.

Right, because this is probably because of automake. If you would downgrade that, you could potentially figure out which version that introduced this behavior.

I have a local automake build set up now per https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/automake.git/tree/HACKING

Curl doesn't seem to have any env var for aclocal, though, so if I do

am=/home/user/automake
env PERL5LIB=$am/lib AUTOMAKE="$am/bin/automake" ACLOCAL="$am/bin/aclocal" autoreconf -fi

I get

aclocal: error: couldn't open directory '/tmp/amdev/share/aclocal-1.16': No such file or directory

Any ideas?

No, I mean I want to point to the built aclocal in automake/bin. Should I hardcode the path in curl source or what do you propose?

Where/how would such a "hardcode" be done? I don't see the curl source use aclocal anywhere..

Yeah, I was getting ahead of myself setting that ACLOCAL var. Anyway, here's what I get without it:

$ env PERL5LIB=$am/lib AUTOMAKE="$am/bin/automake" autoreconf -fi
libtoolize: putting auxiliary files in '.'.
libtoolize: copying file './ltmain.sh'
libtoolize: putting macros in AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS, 'm4'.
libtoolize: copying file 'm4/libtool.m4'
libtoolize: copying file 'm4/ltoptions.m4'
libtoolize: copying file 'm4/ltsugar.m4'
libtoolize: copying file 'm4/ltversion.m4'
libtoolize: copying file 'm4/lt~obsolete.m4'
libtoolize: Remember to add 'LT_INIT' to configure.ac.
configure.ac:129: error: version mismatch.  This is Automake 1.16i,
configure.ac:129: but the definition used by this AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
configure.ac:129: comes from Automake 1.16.5.  You should recreate
configure.ac:129: aclocal.m4 with aclocal and run automake again.
configure.ac:123: error: required file './compile' not found
configure.ac:123: error: required file './install-sh' not found
configure.ac:129: error: required file './missing' not found
automake: error: cannot open < /tmp/amdev/share/automake-1.16/am/header-vars.am: No such file or directory
autoreconf: error: /home/user/automake/bin/automake failed with exit status: 63

Any ideas?

Update: I got help from a colleague and realised that I had not done make install. So for latest automake the steps are

$ ./bootstrap ./configure --prefix=/tmp/amdev && make && make install

and in curl

$ am=/tmp/amdev
$ env PERL5LIB=$am/lib AUTOMAKE="$am/bin/automake" ACLOCAL="$am/bin/aclocal" autoreconf -fi
$ ./configure \
  --without-gnutls --without-mbedtls \
  --enable-ftp --enable-http --enable-ipv6 \
  --without-libidn2 --without-libpsl --without-librtmp \
  --without-libssh2 --without-nghttp2 \
  --without-libssh --without-brotli \
  --without-ngtcp2 --without-quiche \
  --without-zstd --without-hyper --without-libgsasl --without-gssapi \
  --disable-mqtt --disable-ares \
  --disable-dict --disable-file --disable-gopher --disable-imap \
  --disable-ldap --disable-ldaps --disable-manual --disable-pop3 \
  --disable-rtsp --disable-smb --disable-smtp --disable-telnet  \
  --disable-tftp  \
  --with-nss --with-nss-deprecated \
  --with-openssl \
  --without-ca-bundle --without-ca-path

I have now built automake 1.15 with

$ ./bootstrap.sh && ./configure --prefix=/tmp/amdev && make && make install

and I don't see the size issue! Will look into bisecting next (I have plenty of experience in that).

git bisect points to this as the bad commit: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/automake.git/commit/?id=08849db866b44510f6b8fd49e313c91a43a3dfd3

deps: fix corner-case "make distclean" bug

I checked with the preceding commit and it is without the problem.

Should I report it to automake or do you want to look into it/comment first?

Awesome work. Go on and report it, I don't know what more to do with this!
