does anything in practice use multiple registries? | 22:45:47 | |
Probably people using some internal packages, idk | 22:46:35 | |
Also even if they were to use multiple registries, in most cases there wouldn't be any clash, so we could just put everything into the tarballs/ directory of the FOD. | 22:48:37 | |
Btw I have https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/399775 which already has a POC implementation for using multiple registries (though it doesn't put everything into tarballs/) | 22:50:23 | |

I want to build a Dioxus desktop app with webview from GNU/Linux to Windows. So far, this does build
with Does nixpkgs not have the WebView2 runtime-related stuff or do I have to install the runtime on the target OS in order to run my app? | 15:15:58 | |
You definitely need it on the target | 15:16:24 | |
And we definitely don't have it in nixpkgs | 15:16:29 | |
As it's not redistributable | 15:16:35 | |
Is there any chance this can be included in the binary somehow? | 15:17:01 | |
Isn't webview2 part of windows? | 15:17:14 | |
No, it's a Microsoft proprietary library | 15:17:16 | |
Only on 11 | 15:17:25 | |
It is optional on 10 and N/A on older versions | 15:17:36 | |
And they are running Wine which most definitely isn't helping | 15:17:47 | |
Oh, so on that it should just work, if no other dependencies are missing? | 15:17:53 | |
Possibly | 15:18:00 | |
That's interesting. | 15:18:09 | |
Oh actually no it won't because you're building for MinGW | 15:18:12 | |
So presumably you'll run into Exciting ABI Fuckery | 15:18:18 | |
OK, is there a better way? | 15:18:36 | |
Build on native Windows | 15:18:43 | |
Are you saying Nix can't save me? | 15:18:57 | |
We don't really have good Windows support in nixpkgs | 15:18:59 | |
I am saying that nixpkgs, in its current state, can't save you | 15:19:09 | |
So you're telling there is a chance... | 15:19:22 |
