@takentakentaken:matrix.orgDisplay NameIs Lix planning to support multi-user without systemd (just asking)?18:32:05
@takentakentaken:matrix.orgDisplay NameSorry if it was too common of a question or I have misinterpreted the docs for the Lix installer18:33:10
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusThat's not a goal we pursue but the features we may be using for multi-user are reasonably support-able, if you care about this, I suggest being in touch with Lix development to get a hang of which features we plan to depend on18:35:06
@takentakentaken:matrix.orgDisplay NameOkay18:35:32
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusOTOH: cgroup delegation xattrs, socket activation, nsresourced-like delegation of sub-uids (probably will take some time until it is required)18:35:34
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusAlso: putting the daemon in a supervisor cgroup (we don't do it ourselves, so an init system would need to run the right dance to move things in the right hierarchy)18:36:01
@takentakentaken:matrix.orgDisplay NameMay I ask, your an developer or part of the Lix team? (Just curious)18:37:23
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusI am part of the Lix core team18:37:32
@takentakentaken:matrix.orgDisplay NameOkay18:38:04
@neindochoh:catgirl.cloudneindochoh! / Seti (they/them)sounds like a variant of https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/1112 perhaps?21:18:02

@adobo:is.nota.liveadobo hi! i've been trying to install Lix on an existing Nix installation, but I'm on MacOS 12, so I don't have /usr/lib/libc++.1.dylib, which makes the installation fail. I tried downloading libcxx through Nix and MacPorts to supply the libs, but I don't know how to point the installer to where those are 04:12:56
@emilazy:matrix.orgemily it's normal to not have libraries in /usr/lib, those have been virtual for many releases. the problem is rather that Nixpkgs no longer supports macOS < 13 (and nor does Apple, even for security updates) 04:19:27
@adobo:is.nota.liveadoboyeah, i know my version isn't supported anymore, but i was hoping i could still get some things to work04:23:08
@emilazy:matrix.orgemily OCLP is probably your best bet. (but note that x86_64-darwin support is being dropped by the end of the year too, and ofc every aarch64-darwin machine can run newer macOS) 04:37:33
@adobo:is.nota.liveadoboah okay, thank you! i'll look into it. unfortch i do have the intel chip 🫠05:40:38

In reply to @raitobezarius:matrix.org
Also: putting the daemon in a supervisor cgroup (we don't do it ourselves, so an init system would need to run the right dance to move things in the right hierarchy)
Are all of those required for the daemon or just nice to have and to guarantee everything runs as expected? E.g. uid delegation I guess would risk conflicts or something, or would Lix refuse to run without knowing about the delegates ranges? And I’d expect socket activation to not be required if someone is willing to just have the daemon running always. I know nothing about the daemon implementation
