emily | me too, but cleaning up Rust is more work than I have the capacity for right now :( | 09:08:32 |
emily | honestly we should really build std in a separate derivation always, I think | 09:08:40 |
emily | and with the right platform triples | 09:08:43 |
emily | rather than building a "rustc" that is actually just the target platform std | 09:08:54 |
Alyssa Ross | IIRC @Ericson2314:matrix.org didn't think it was possible some time in the past | 09:10:08 |
emily | why not? it's exactly what fastCross does, right? | 09:11:25 |
emily | like fastCross could just not link in the rustc in installation phase, and swizzle around the targets that it passes, and then we could wrap them together later | 09:12:09 |
emily | I guess the problem is that the non-cross compiler would still want to build the target std | 09:12:28 |
emily | -Zbuild-std at least helps… | 09:12:39 |
K900 | One day we'll have cargo-std-aware | 09:13:08 |
emily | patch Rust to accept -Zbuild-std on stable, do separate-Rust-crate-packaging, make std one of them 🙃 | 09:13:14 |
K900 | One day | 09:13:15 |
emily | it'll be awful with the current Rust packaging scheme. because we would build std for every single application | 09:13:38 |
emily | oh, I guess not because the FOD is compressed, right? Toma: why do we compress the FOD again? | 12:08:43 |
emily | anyway, maybe we could move the unpacking of the FOD into the actual Rust package build? | 12:08:54 |
Alyssa Ross | We'd need to do fetchCargoVendor2 for that | 12:13:56 |
Toma | It is compressed, because it is how they are downloaded, and it is also not uncompressed so that we don't have file system case sensitiveness bite us with different hashes | 12:13:59 |
Alyssa Ross | (Which doesn't mean we shouldn't) | 12:14:06 |
Alyssa Ross | ah right | 12:14:12 |
