i suppose i should take this opportunity to add disallowedReferences to rustc-unwrapped too, as long as we have to rebuild all of the rust packages anyway | 06:49:32 | |
I will ask in here. Can someone when the relibc is merged into nixpkgs, when there is a rustc update can you ping the redox team please? Because we will need to check if that breaks relibc as a lot of C Api's get changed on unstable. An example of this was with 1.94 with VaListImpl being renamed to VaList. | 22:20:22 | |

| Tbh I don't think putting relibc in nixpkgs is a good idea at this point because of its reliance on so many nightly features | 22:36:42 | |
| Redox upstream is aware that relibc doesn't build on newer rustc versions and the recommendation I got is "just use an older rustc" which isn't really an option for nixpkgs aiui | 22:37:56 | |
| I think nixpkgs probably has enough stuff in it to support doing Redox things with it out of tree, so that's probably best to do for the time being until the reliance on volatile nightly features goes away | 22:39:18 | |

In reply to @charles:computer.surgeryI don't think complaining at them every time a new rustc version breaks their build will accomplish anything other than being obnoxious; this is expected behavior with nightly rust | 22:41:08 | |
| I am working on fixing that currently. | 23:29:48 | |
| No not every version, but if it breaks relibc to let us know. | 23:30:17 | |

| It works again!! I made an upstream pr to fix it: https://gitlab.redox-os.org/redox-os/relibc/-/merge_requests/1204 however they need to update their toolchain first. | 01:35:09 | |

| (please correct me if I am wrong on this) i believe the issue that was being brought up was not this specific breakage, but the fact that if it breaks even somewhat constantly, it will be an additional(potentially unwanted) burden on the rust team to deal with its breakage, even if that is just alerting the redox team to said issue. I would agree with Charles that it may be prudent to let it break and deal with it later as relibc reduces its usage of nightly features. Your fixes are, i'd like to think at least, appreciated, but the issue is ongoing maintainance rather than a single specific incident | 05:26:21 | |
| yeah, that's indeed what i was trying to get at, in addition to the pressure this could/would then put on the redox maintainers | 05:28:32 | |
