@nbp:mozilla.orgnbpI do not know, but maybe increasing the size of the header could be a temporary hack in relrhack, to satisfy patchelf until patchelf can be fixed.16:22:26
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbp * I do not know, but maybe increasing the size of the header could be a temporary hack in relrhack, to satisfy patchelf until patchelf can be fixed. (just a guess, I haven't look the issue deeply yet)16:22:43
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbpis there a patchelf channel where people would know?16:23:34
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatThe only patchelf-related room I can find is this wide one? https://matrix.to/#/#systems-programming:nixos.org16:25:20
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunat(i.e. I don't know a good channel)16:26:00
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunat * (i.e. I don't know a good channel/room)16:26:28
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunat * (i.e. I don't know a good channel/room/place)16:26:45
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatA github ticket could be used for this, though that's a less "chatty" place.16:27:39
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatI wonder if FF compiled by ourselves will also suffer from this, once it reaches these changes.16:28:25
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatThat's certainly a more important package than the binary one.16:28:48
@hexa:lossy.networkhexamaybe just invite mic92 here?16:29:11
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatCould be. I have no idea how many people are active around patchelf really.16:29:44
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatEither way, if a place doesn't exist, inviting them all here might be the easiest way.16:30:30
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa invited @joerg:thalheim.ioMic92.16:31:31
@joerg:thalheim.ioMic92 joined the room.16:31:54
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunat👋 the mic is yours, I guess16:37:41
@joerg:thalheim.ioMic92Patchelf is fun. You fix 1 bug and create 3 new ones.16:38:25
@joerg:thalheim.ioMic92And than you get emails from people that complain about c++14 because it doesn't work on their 15 year old OS.16:39:22
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatNow I see that nixpkgs patchelf defaults to 0.15 whereas upstream is at 0.18.16:41:40
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatBut if it goes like 1 for 3, maybe it's better to default to the oldest version.16:42:04
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatSo perhaps the first quick attempt would be to simply try with later patchelf?16:42:33
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunat(in case we're in luck)16:42:39
@joerg:thalheim.ioMic92yeah. there were some regressions, that prevents upgrading.16:43:14
@joerg:thalheim.ioMic92I remember D being an issue.16:43:22
@joerg:thalheim.ioMic92Maybe also something with emacs?16:43:34
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatWhen you'd like a Hydra jobset to update the default, ping me. Even if just for testing an unstable version or something.16:43:42
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatBut that's... a bit tangential to the current topic.16:44:05
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunat * When you'd like a Hydra jobset to update the default, ping me. Even if just for testing an unstable version before release or something.16:44:29
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbphas a bug been opened on bugzilla.mozilla.org ?17:03:30
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbpat least to collect the investigation somewhere.17:04:02
