Somewhat frustratingly, I only discovered this could be resolved with a
manifest change after first wasting hours trying to detect unicode text
in the NSIS installer, and warning the user that they'd need to change
their system locale if unicode text was found. Also tried adjusting the
locale with setlocale() on program startup, which did not help, perhaps
because it needs to be set before libc init.
All platforms:
- rename scripts/ to tools/: Bazelisk expects to find its wrapper script
(used by the Mac changes below) in tools/. Rather than have a separate
scripts/ and tools/, it's simpler to just move everything into tools/.
- wheel outputs and binary bundles now go into .bazel/out/dist. While
not technically Bazel build products, doing it this way ensures they get
cleaned up when 'bazel clean' is run, and it keeps them out of the source
folder.
- update to the latest Bazel
Windows changes:
- bazel.bat has been removed, and tools\setup-env.bat has been added.
Other scripts like .\run.bat will automatically call it to set up the
environment.
- because Bazel is now on the path, you can 'bazel test ...' from any
folder, instead of having to do \anki\bazel.
- the bat files can handle being called from any working directory,
so things like running "\anki\tools\python" from c:\ will work.
- build installer as part of bundling process
Mac changes:
- `arch -arch x86_64 bazel ...` will now automatically use a different
build root, so that it is cheap to switch back and forth between archs
on a new Mac.
- tools/run-qt* will now automatically use Rosetta
- disable jemalloc in Mac x86 build for now, as it won't build under
Rosetta (perhaps due to its build scripts using $host_cpu instead of
$target_cpu)
- create app bundle as part of bundling process
Linux changes:
- remove arm64 orjson workaround in Linux bundle, as without a
readily-available, relatively distro-agonstic PyQt/Qt build
we can use, the arm64 Linux bundle is of very limited usefulness.
- update Docker files for release build
- include fcitx5 in both the qt5 and qt6 bundles
- create tarballs as part of the bundling process
