| @shadowninja55:matrix.org | has anyone used tinycc? gcc seems to read NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE or something that includes include paths, while tinycc is missing a ton and requires me to specify them manually. | 19:38:44 |
| @shadowninja55:matrix.org | it makes me think tinycc on nixpkgs isn't wrapped correctly or something. | 19:38:53 |

Is there some information somewhere about the minimal package set needed to bootstrap a nix system ? I'm not aware of any, but agree it's interesting ;) | 11:02:43 |

 andi- | You can look at the bootstrap tarball. From the top of my head those contain:
- static busybox (with unxz, ash and tar applet in i686 mode but could be 64bit as well on x86)
- patchelf to patch the binaries included in the tarball
- glibc
- a reduced set of GCC libs (for example the C++ std::fs .so is missing)
- a version of bash, gzip, coreutils and i believe GNU make

- obviously a copy of glibc

| andi- | I've a branch where I tried to get rid of patchelf during the bootstrap phase we ca could use relative RPATHs. | 11:32:38 |

| andi- | That work ended up requriing patching each and every binary in the tarball (after unpacking) with a wrapper script that invokes the correct dynamic loader with them... Not sure how Guix gets around that issue of the bootstrap files requiring a dynamic loader. | 11:34:08 |
| andi- | All the talk about the minimal bootstrap are great but how do you execute the very first shell that you spawn you MES stuff with? | 11:34:40 |
