Thank you @albertony @dg0yt @walbourn and @miyanyan

[BillyONeal]

Several changes here have potential registry-wide impact so I've submitted a world rebuild: https://dev.azure.com/vcpkg/public/_build/results?buildId=122788&view=results

[walbourn]

Verified using the October 2025 GDKX (new layouts only), the updated xbox community triplets in #48159, and removing the manual use of VCPKG_ENV_PASSTHROUGH with this updated tool build.

• Passthroughs all work including the scenario of building directxtex[xbox]:x64-windows

• Verified the xbox hash is picking up xbox\include\gxdk.h when using the new layouts.

Seems like =skip is not handled correctly?

/vcpkg/vcpkg: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so.4: version `CURL_OPENSSL_3' not found (required by /vcpkg/vcpkg)

Looks like we need to figure out where this version constraint is coming from and stop it somehow. The whole idea was "if you had a curl we could run before you should have the .so"

[dg0yt]

The whole idea was "if you had a curl we could run before you should have the .so"

... says the registry where supported triplets have static library linkage 🤔

Switching from CLI to ABI, you trade CLI problems for ABI problems. IIUC CURL_OPENSSL_3 is the result of building with SONAME 3, and the error is from running with SONAME 4. And the distros do their own thing.

Just static link curl? Because that is probably what you want either way unless you want to ship it with the exe an adjust RPATH to ORIGIN

[dg0yt]

I think the idea is still to avoid distributing curl. Which would need a TLS lib. Which would need...
(The shared lib is dlopened, not linked IIRC.) The lib is linked.

[BillyONeal]

... says the registry where supported triplets have static library linkage 🤔

Curl is special in that they have provided an unchanged ABI for ~18 years. We don't default to that because the vast vast majority of our registry do not do that. Crucially they have had a much more stable ABI than any of the TLS backends.

That would force us to dynamic link to the TLS backend which is a nonstarter because they have a worse ABI compat story than curl, and we can't statically link that as that's tied to user TLS policy.

[dg0yt]

Curl is special in that they have provided an unchanged ABI for ~18 years. ... Crucially they have had a much more stable ABI than any of the TLS backends.

IIUC that's why dlopen should work well for the small set of API actually used by vcpkg.

OTOH I see why distros would want to track the system-wide effect of switching curl's TLS backend between openssl and gnutls.

Hi, saucer maintainer here - what issues has the library caused lately? Anyway I can help?

The error you mentioned seems to be nothing related to saucer directly - seems like GitHub had some uptime problems.

All downloads are supposed to be fetched by portfile.cmake (with vcpkg_from_Xxx so they can be asset cached); the "inner" upstream build system should not be downloading things.

I'm assuming all dependencies are available in vcpkg (except cpm), if that's the case I could either replace the CPM bootstrapper with a local one (one that does not download) upstream, or the vcpkg port could patch it
