| sterni (he/him) | I never checked whether it is actually necessary, Randy set XATTR=/does-not-exist for some bindists. I just packaged the darwin one when GHC started failing because it started executing /usr/bin/xattr | 14:42:43 |
| sterni (he/him) | emily: ah it used to be a literal fork of the python one (i.e. apple distributed the original (?) tarball and an ed(1) script) http://github.com/nixos/nixpkgs/commit/283d622397539f196416657da9dc804a4ca89846 | 14:48:17 |
| sterni (he/him) | I guess now that that has changed, we it is better to use the C one | 14:48:29 |
 emily | the Nix store can't contain xattrs | 14:48:50 |
| emily | I believe it strips them automatically | 14:48:55 |
| emily | so most likely you do not need to give it anything | 14:49:01 |
| sterni (he/him) | but on write or on fixup | 14:49:14 |
| sterni (he/him) | though I guess that doesn't matter | 14:49:33 |

| emily | uhh, #if __linux__ :) | 14:49:44 |
| emily | I think that changed since though | 14:49:50 |
| sterni (he/him) | hm https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/413450 | 14:50:10 |
| emily | the bonus fun is that you can get com.apple.provenance ones in there that are difficult to strip because they're part of XProtect | 14:50:09 |
