Verification

• My brew doctor output says Your system is ready to brew. and am still able to reproduce my issue.
• I ran brew update and am still able to reproduce my issue.
• I have resolved all warnings from brew doctor and that did not fix my problem.
• I searched for recent similar issues at https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues?q=is%3Aissue and found no duplicates.

What were you trying to do (and why)?

For now rqlited -version and rqlite -v gives version 8.
Platform: macOS arm64, installed via homebrew

What happened (include all command output)?

Current output:

$ rqlite -v
Version 8, commit unknown, branch unknown, built on unknown

$ rqlited -version
rqlited 8 darwin arm64 go1.23.4 sqlite3.46.1 (commit unknown, branch unknown, compiler gc)

$ rqlited /tmp/rqlite
...
[rqlited] 2025/01/03 19:09:34 rqlited starting, version 8, SQLite 3.46.1, commit unknown, branch unknown, compiler (toolchain) gc, compiler (command) unknown
...

What did you expect to happen?

Output a full version, like 8.36.3

Step-by-step reproduction instructions (by running brew commands)

brew install rqlite

rqlite -v

rqlited -version

rqlited /tmp/rqlite

This should be easy to fix (I guess). It would require a change to https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/r/rqlite.rb such that the commit, branch, and version were passed to the build command.

You need to add:

-X github.com/rqlite/rqlite/v8/cmd.CompilerCommand=gcc -X github.com/rqlite/rqlite/v8/cmd.Version=$VERSION -X github.com/rqlite/rqlite/v8/cmd.Branch=master -X github.com/rqlite/rqlite/v8/cmd.Commit=$commit -X github.com/rqlite/rqlite/v8/cmd.Buildtime=$buildtime

to the existing ldflags. $commit should be the git commit has, and $VERSION should be the version e.g. v8.36.0. $buildtime would be current timestamp.

For reference you can see how rqlite does it official builds, and set those linker flags, here: https://github.com/rqlite/rqlite/blob/master/.github/workflows/build.sh#L61
