 mjm | i don't think the flake one is cached. the one in nixpkgs is | 16:33:26 |
 @jade_:matrix.org | use the lixFromNixpkgs overlay in the flake if you want to use lix from nixpkgs. | 20:29:14 |

use the lixFromNixpkgs overlay in the flake if you want to use lix from nixpkgs. I am a newbie, is there an example or something in the web i can look at. Otherwise i might switch to nixpkgs lix. I don't know why i did not use it in the first place, guess the lix homepage lead me to using the flake. | 04:37:31 |
| @jade_:matrix.org | the reason that you would use it is that there is a giant pile of software that does not use the nix from PATH | 04:37:59 |
| chfkch | Thank you all for your input. | 04:38:05 |
| @jade_:matrix.org | change nixosModules.default to nixosModules.lixFromNixpkgs in the flake instructions. then you are done. | 04:38:54 |

 antifuchs | sooo when using nixosModules.lixFromNixpkgs, does the nixos-module flake require pinning, too? I'm trying to build unpinned and am getting "major version (got 2.91.0) other than the one the module was designed for (expecting 2.92)." | 13:28:55 |
 Charles | is your nixpkgs up to date | 14:23:23 |
| Charles | or maybe you need to be using the nixos-unstable branch | 14:23:38 |
 aloisw | Lix in current unstable is 2.91. | 14:23:58 |
| aloisw | 2.92 is not in releasable shape right now since static and 32-bit builds are broken. | 14:24:33 |

 V. 🏳️⚧️ | Is there a way to do cross-compilation w/o compiling the entire toolchain from scratch? | 18:20:48 |
 K900 | Depends on which toolchai | 18:21:58 |
| K900 | * Depends on which toolchain | 18:21:59 |
| K900 | x86_64-linux to aarch64-linux should be cached at least up to stdenv on nixos-unstable | 18:22:09 |
| V. 🏳️⚧️ | If it is, I'm definitely not hitting that cache | 18:22:51 |

I'm compiling LLVM, GCC and binutils The GHA runner ran out of memory bruh 😭 | 18:51:13 |
| V. 🏳️⚧️ | Microsoft will bust down my door | 18:51:27 |
 Lily Foster | oh yeah building cross in GHA is gonna run out of RAM more than likely if it's the free runners, let alone disk space | 18:51:38 |
| Lily Foster | if you want crimes for more disk space in free GHA runners, i've got cursed arcana for that i can share. but uh, wow do i hate GHA so much | 18:52:17 |
| V. 🏳️⚧️ | Share, I'm broke as hell | 18:54:41 |

| Lily Foster | that removes a bunch of stuff and the easimon/maximize-build-space action actually takes the two disks GHA runners get, puts disk image files on them, LVMs them together, and them mounts on top of that. to unify disk space between the main and scratch disks | 18:58:25 |
