2.1 Top 5 Active Issues:
We consider active issues to be issues that that have been commented on most frequently within the last week. Bot comments are omitted.
-
Building Enola on Mac OS X with Bazel requires Xcode (unrelated to Nix): This issue describes a build failure when attempting to compile the Enola project on Mac OS X using Bazel, where the build process fails due to the absence of the
clangtool despite it being installed, indicating a possible requirement for Xcode rather than just the command line tools or Nix packages. The user reports that addingclangto the Nix configuration did not resolve the problem, and the error messages suggest that the Bazel apple_support repository expects Xcode to be installed for successful compilation.- The comments suggest upgrading the apple_support dependency and point to a related issue indicating that the problem is due to Xcode not being installed. The proposed next steps include reproducing the issue on a Mac, installing Xcode to verify if it resolves the problem, documenting the findings, and potentially setting up continuous integration for Mac builds.

-
How to use Bazel in a Nix Flake Output: This issue addresses a problem where the Bazel build output of a Nix flake works on one machine but fails on another and in continuous integration due to network access restrictions during the build process. The goal is to document solutions to this problem and make a related pull request mergeable as soon as possible, while also considering future improvements.
- The comments discuss the difficulty of the issue, exploring approaches such as performing Bazel downloads earlier in the build phases, using alternative Bazel packaging methods like
buildBazelPackage, and consulting various resources and examples to understand Bazel integration with Nix. They also mention a related Nix issue about network restrictions and consider temporarily recommending the--no-sandboxflag as a workaround. - Number of comments this week: 2

2.2 Top 5 Stale Issues:
We consider stale issues to be issues that has had no activity within the last 30 days. The team should work together to get these issues resolved and closed as soon as possible.
- Run SpotBugs during build to flag code quality issues: This issue proposes integrating SpotBugs into the build process to automatically detect and flag code quality problems. It references several resources related to SpotBugs and Bazel rules, indicating a focus on leveraging existing tools and community discussions to implement this functionality effectively.
- Maven Model: This issue discusses the use of the
pkg:URI scheme for identifying Maven packages, noting that while it appears in some contexts, it is not an official IANA standard and conflicts with other uses such as those by theuri-schemepackage for Node.js. The author suggests creating an Enola-specific URL template for Maven artifacts to avoid these conflicts and inquires whether existing standards from the Security (CVE) community or SPDX could be leveraged instead. - Java Model: This issue is about enhancing the
enolacommand-line tool to list Java types such as classes and enums when using thegetcommand with a specified JAR file, and to enable retrieving references to these types. It also suggests incorporating an integration test that utilizes a method for obtaining the full path of a JAR from a class, which could support related functionality described in a previous issue. - .owl (and .owl.xml) extension should be recognised as application/owl+xml, and loaded: This issue addresses the problem that files with the .owl and .owl.xml extensions are not being recognized with the correct media type of application/owl+xml, causing them to be loaded as application/octet-stream instead. As a result, when attempting to load these files, the system fails to identify any "Things" within them, indicating improper handling of the file format during the loading process.
- .rdf (and .rdf.xml) should be loadable (as what?): This issue concerns the inability of the system to properly load files with the extensions .rdf and .rdf.xml, as demonstrated by a failure to detect any "Things" when attempting to load an RDF file. The user reports that despite the file being recognized with the media type application/rdf+xml, the loader does not successfully process the content, indicating a need for improved support or handling of these RDF file formats.

2.4 Closed Issues
This section lists, groups, and then summarizes issues that were closed within the last week in the repository. This section also links the associated pull requests if applicable.
Issues Closed This Week: 4
Summarized Issues:
- Maven dependency version conflicts: Multiple Maven modules appear in various sub-modules with conflicting versions, causing warnings during dependency pinning. Efforts are focused on ensuring consistent versioning across the project's Maven dependencies to avoid these conflicts.
- issues/1685
- Maven repository warnings with bzlmod modules: A warning occurs when the Maven repository named 'maven' includes contributions from multiple bzlmod modules like "grpc-java" and "protobuf," causing them to be resolved together. The suggested solution is to suppress the warning by specifying the contributing modules in the root MODULE.bazel file.
- issues/1686
- Build failures due to ccache on read-only filesystem: A build failure on Fedora 42 was caused by ccache attempting to create temporary files on a read-only filesystem during a Bazel build. This issue did not occur on an identical laptop setup and was resolved by clearing the Bazel cache.
- issues/1701
- Removal of obsolete GitHub Actions workflows: Obsolete GitHub Actions related to ASDF and other workflows were removed and disabled in the repository settings to clean up unused or deprecated automation scripts. This cleanup helps maintain the repository's automation hygiene.
