Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/shadps4-emu/shadPS4/issues/1320

Builds are failing in the latest commits, presumably due to the recently-submitted Discord RPC PRs:

/home/testing/Desktop/shadps4/shadPS4/externals/discord-rpc/thirdparty/rapidjson-1.1.0/include/rapidjson/document.h:319:82: error: assignment of read-only member ‘rapidjson::GenericStringRef<CharType>::length’
  319 |     GenericStringRef& operator=(const GenericStringRef& rhs) { s = rhs.s; length = rhs.length; }
      |                                                                           ~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~

Note that this is not the same reason as discussed in #1195.

System information:

OS: Linux Mint 22 / kernel 6.8
CPU: Intel i7-10870H
GPU: Nvidia GTX 3070
Commit tested: c9f894c45a
Last known good commit: 7389cf3e89 (I can bisect if necessary)
Full build log: build.log

Your build is faililing on the discord external repo building.

L1208

no rapidjson, download

And your boost and fmt are below the minimums.

Thanks. I was able to avoid the no rapidjson, download message you found in the log by installing rapidjson-dev, though it still fails to build. There doesn't appear to be a CMake flag to exclude discord - is that possible?

Also, should it matter that the local boost and fmt libraries are below the minimum since it's building them from externals anyway? Otherwise the local versions are as available on the Ubuntu 24.04 repo, so I would imagine this would fail for anyone building on Ubuntu-based distros:

$ apt list libboost-dev
Listing... Done
libboost-dev/noble,now 1.83.0.1ubuntu2 amd64 [installed]
libboost-dev/noble 1.83.0.1ubuntu2 i386

$ apt list libfmt-dev
Listing... Done
libfmt-dev/noble,now 9.1.0+ds1-2 amd64 [installed]
libfmt-dev/noble 9.1.0+ds1-2 i386

Update: Apparently this issue only occurs when building with gcc (using gcc-14.0.1 here). However, since gcc is neither officially supported nor recommended for this project, it's not technically an "issue" so I'm closing this.
