 Sarun Intaralawan | Hi, I've just discovered this `minimal-bootstrap` thing and I have a question. What's left before we can bootstrap stdenv from all of this? | 00:24:08 |
 K900 | It should be technically doable right now | 00:37:44 |
| K900 | But the real question is, why are you asking | 00:37:50 |
 dish [Fox/It/She] | There's some additional packages we need to add in order to have a proper set of bootstrap packages, and ideally they will support both x8664-linux and i686-linux. Other systems need other things besides more packages for support(there is an in-flight PR to add x8664-linux support to the existing i686-only bootstrap, but that will be merged sometime this weekend)
As an end-user, this still can't be used right now, since it doesn't have everything in static builds that the current bootstrap files have. Is there a specific use-case you need it for, or something else? This has been a fairly slow-going project just because its work few folks want to do, but I'm trying to push it forward and get us to a point that this could be used | 03:32:32 |
| Sarun Intaralawan | Well, I'm just interested. Last week I had a question of "How did stdenv got build in the first place?" and I fell into the usual rabbit hole after that. Excited for things that are coming up! | 07:04:28 |

 whispers [& it/fae] | ope, just tried nom-build -A minimal-bootstrap.test on master and also hit a hash mismatch as above. given it's on https://repo.or.cz/tinycc.git, I suspect this is the same problem that aux hit: these URLs are behind anubis (even the git archive URLs), and so sometimes you'll get served the anubis hash instead | 03:08:18 |
