security-check.py
Perform basic ELF security checks on a series of executables.
symbol-check.py
A script to check that the (Linux) executables produced by gitian only contain allowed gcc, glibc and libstdc++ version symbols. This makes sure they are still compatible with the minimum supported Linux distribution versions.
Example usage after a gitian build:
find ../gitian-builder/build -type f -executable | xargs python util/symbol-check.py
If only supported symbols are used the return value will be 0 and the output will be empty.
If there are 'unsupported' symbols, the return value will be 1 a list like this will be printed:
.../64/test_bitcoin: symbol memcpy from unsupported version GLIBC_2.14
.../64/test_bitcoin: symbol __fdelt_chk from unsupported version GLIBC_2.15
.../64/test_bitcoin: symbol std::out_of_range::~out_of_range() from unsupported version GLIBCXX_3.4.15
.../64/test_bitcoin: symbol _ZNSt8__detail15_List_nod from unsupported version GLIBCXX_3.4.15
update-translations.py
Run this script from the root of the repository to update all translations from transifex. It will do the following automatically:
- fetch all translations
- post-process them into valid and committable format
- add missing translations to the build system (TODO)
See doc/translation-process.md for more information.
gen-manpages.sh
A small script to automatically create manpages in ../../doc/man by running the release binaries with the -help option. This requires help2man which can be found at: https://www.gnu.org/software/help2man/
