htop is broken?

[ALIGMSTEN]

Hello,

 

While testing adding efuse_xlate to extract the efuse version for h616 'opiz2' so that h6 and h616 can coexist, found the following with htop.

 

Issue raised with: htop 2.2.0 aborting. Please report bug at  http://hisham.hm/htop  >>>> pointed me back here. 

 

Please have a look and let me know if help needed.

 

Thanks,

Alistair

Hello Alistair.
What operating system?
Just delete this old one and install the one that comes with the system.

[ALIGMSTEN]

Thanks Leo,

 

That was straight from output of 'my' minimal test build conf. Built on win 7 virtual disk, I think mistakenly as oracle(64-bit) and not ubuntu, then quick check htop from root to see if the patches are working as expected.

 

It looks like old version, unsure why, haven't delved that deep into build scripts.

Have now started build from older ubuntu(64-bit) virtual disk, really don't know if that difference could be reason, not so clued up on this part of things, and probably not an effect.

 

Will let you know effect of different build and update the 'oracle' builds htop.

Well that strange apt says already latest?

Unfortunately, the system package from this OS will not work properly for CPU temperature and frequency.

I learned how to make the latest version from the developer's website:

https://github.com/htop-dev/htop/releases/tag/3.2.1

But it shows the processor frequency not constantly, but with some different time intervals. The temperature does not show at all.

 

The situation for today is like this. The old package that currently exists in the build system is either not being built (jammy) or is being built but does not work (Bullseye).

[Igor]

I have removed htop from our repository. We are at least good for the future.

[ALIGMSTEN]

Right thank you both for the reasons and solutions, to add must be bullseye here, because same issue with new build.

NB: htop relies on libsensors for temperature and fan readings, and libsensors is not known to the State of California (or us) to be particularly good on ARM (especially the Pi and its clones).

Now that Igor has cleared the repository of broken packages, you can install the system package and try to configure the library using this file

[going]

@ALIGMSTEN If you succeed with the configuration file, I will immediately add to the build system the construction of the current version of the htop package and configure it for our devices.

[ALIGMSTEN]

Thank you @going, will have a go later this evening.

[nordonsimf]

so now i try to delete\install htop and its en error.

Does htop avaible in future ?

[going]

@Igor The package has been deleted, but the metadata stores information about it

http://mirror.yandex.ru/mirrors/armbian/apt/pool/bullseye-utils/h/htop/htop_3.1.0-0~armbian20.08.2+1_armhf.deb  404 Not Found

Женя конечно ДА.

Of course YES.

Now it will be possible to install the package that is already provided by the base operating system.
In the future, perhaps we will collect the latest version being developed with our own fixes.

Index is syncing 24h later to avoid "file not found" when adding packages. We rarely remove packages ...

[ALIGMSTEN]

Building from htop source on the board and configuring very simple exercise.

 

alistair@orangepizero2:~$ htop --version
htop 3.2.2-dev

 

libsensors finds thermal on device 'opiz2' without configuration. I had a try to use the library by writing to it in c++, unfortunately had numerous compile issues, have not been able to extract the info I wanted yet. Time intervals are as @going has noted I did not look at source, beyond build at all and did not find configuration option, could easily missed if there.

Ok! This means that something has been fixed.

I was building this release htop/releases/tag/3.2.1

 

 I'll check the build from the head git.
