$ samu
samu: file is missing and not created by any action: 'lib/CMakeFiles/jxl_export.dir'
Reproduce with samurai as of 217059f, ninja 1.11.1 works.
With ninja:
cd /tmp/libjxl/build && /usr/bin/python3.12 /usr/bin/a2x --format manpage --destination-dir="/tmp/libjxl/build" /tmp/libjxl/doc/man/djxl.txt
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/a2x", line 5, in <module>
from asciidoc.a2x import cli
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'asciidoc'
...
The build rule in question:
build cmake_object_order_depends_target_jxl_export: phony || lib/CMakeFiles/jxl_export.dir
Order-only dependency, which seemingly ninja treats as "if it cannot be built then ignore it"? If you manually edit build.ninja and switch it to | (implicit dependency rather than order-only) then ninja would error out too:
ninja: error: 'lib/CMakeFiles/jxl_export.dir', needed by 'cmake_object_order_depends_target_jxl_export', missing and no known rule to make it
I am not sure what the purpose of this rule is. There's no rule to make it, so it shouldn't be an order-only dependency as it cannot be "built" in or out of order.
My gut feeling is that this is samu not being bug-for-bug compatible with ninja, in a case where ninja is technically wrong.
@mgorny Is there a Gentoo issue for this?
I tried reproducing it, but it seems to just work for me...
I tried this with the current samurai commit (217059f), samurai-1.2 and using libjxl-0.8.2, the libjxl-9999 Gentoo ebuild and the git repo (libjxl/libjxl@bf2b765) as shown in the OP reproduction.
Gentoo's app-text/asciidoc can be used to get past the "No module named 'asciidoc'" error.
It was fixed in libjxl/libjxl@c87291f, so you need to use a commit prior to that.
Ah, reading the discussion in PR libjxl/libjxl#3196 was also helpful for understanding.
There is an argument that projects shouldn't produce invalid build.ninja files and perhaps the upstream fix is all that is needed to be done here?
note that muon has added some kind of ninja compilation, code forked from samurai with some modifications
I tried to make a minimal reproducer:
rule echo
command = echo $in
build foo: echo a || bBut this failed in the same way as samurai:
ninja: error: 'b', needed by 'foo', missing and no known rule to make it
So it needs to be a phony rule to ignore missing b:
rule echo
command = echo $in
build foo: phony a || band now ninja doesn't care that b is missing:
ninja: no work to do.
This seems to contradict the ninja docs that say
Semantically, the phony rule is equivalent to a plain rule where the command does nothing, but phony rules are handled specially in that they aren’t printed when run, logged (see below), nor do they contribute to the command count printed as part of the build process.
So I think this is a bug in cmake. Nothing in https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/add_library.html#id3 seems to indicate that object libraries must have at least one source file.

Good to know, but what does this have to do with this issue?
