# Build Arguments
ARG USER_ID=1001
ARG GROUP_ID=1001
ARG USER_NAME=coder
ARG JULIA_VERSION=v1.12.4
ARG PDI_VERSION=1.10.0

# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 1. System Dependencies Installation
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Rationale:
# - 'neowofetch': Replaces 'neofetch' which has been removed from Debian Trixie repos.
# - 'python3-setuptools': REQUIRED for PDI compilation. Python 3.12+ (shipped with Trixie)
#   removed 'distutils', causing CMake/PDI detection scripts to fail without setuptools.
# - 'dbus-x11' & 'xvfb': Essential for running GTK applications in a headless Docker environment.

# Build Configuration (Make.user) - CRITICAL FIXES FOR DEBIAN TRIXIE
# 1. USE_SYSTEM_LIBUNWIND=0: Forces internal libunwind. System libunwind on Trixie causes Segfaults.
# 2. noexecstack: Security flag required by modern Linux kernels.
# 3. -gdwarf-4: CRITICAL FIX. GCC 13+ defaults to DWARF-5 debug format, which is incompatible
#    with Julia's current unwinder, leading to immediate Segfaults on startup.

# RUNTIME ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES - CRITICAL SETTINGS
# 1. LD_LIBRARY_PATH: STRICTLY excludes '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu'.
#    Reason: Preventing "DLL Hell". Including system paths forces Julia to load system
#    libraries (e.g., system libglib) instead of its own Artifacts, causing undefined
#    symbol errors (e.g., 'g_string_copy'). We prioritize Julia and PDI libs.
ENV LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/julia/lib:/usr/local/julia/lib/julia:/usr/local/lib

# 2. GTK_A11Y=none: Disables GTK Accessibility Bus to suppress "org.a11y.Bus" warnings in logs.

# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 5. JULIA PACKAGES INSTALLATION
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Optimization:
# - Operations are consolidated into a single RUN instruction to reduce Docker layer count.
# - xvfb-run: Executes in a virtual framebuffer. Essential for 'Pkg.precompile()'
#   of Gtk4 and ProfileView, which require a display server even during installation.
