 Randy Eckenrode | I would have caught the setproctitle issue sooner if it rebuilt my system configs more frequently. I got out of the habit while running a staging branch for a while (because full rebuilds on staging take forever). It wouldn’t be the first Darwin issue I’ve fixed. | 17:32:59 |
| Randy Eckenrode | What’s wrong with Swift on Darwin this time? ☹️ | 17:33:20 |
| Randy Eckenrode | Oh, swiftc crash during build. Not touching that one with a 10m pole. I’m super burnt out on the Swift 6.2 update. Those crashes are not fun to debug. | 17:37:27 |
 whispers [& it/fae] | it's not darwin specific, swift is failing on master on linux too (iirc gcc 15 fallout, though idk if the cause is different on darwin) | 17:37:30 |
| Randy Eckenrode | Swift shouldn’t even be using GCC to build. | 17:37:45 |
| whispers [& it/fae] | oh yeah right, darwin's issue are separate | 17:38:06 |
| Randy Eckenrode | AFAIK it’s technically possible but not really supported upstream. | 17:38:21 |
 emily | tbh it's not easy for users to tell they're lagging behind except when they are missing some specific update :/ | 17:42:33 |
| emily | there's a lot of support requests from users in general where it later turns out they're on some months-old commit and had no idea | 17:42:49 |
 samasaur | there is a PR for GCC 15 compatibility but it just lets the linux build get farther before hitting the actual issue at hand. the linux failure has been there for a while but this darwin failure is new | 19:13:14 |
| Randy Eckenrode | Can’t Linux just use Clang instead of GCC? | 20:05:49 |
| * Randy Eckenrode looks at upstream issue. It’s a libstdc++ 15 issue? | 20:06:41 |
| samasaur | I haven't really looked into the GCC issue because it'd hit that other issue I don't understand | 20:07:06 |
| samasaur | I think the PR "solves" it (aka it gets farther and hits the other issue) | 20:07:46 |

 eveeifyeve | Does anyone know why nixpkgs-review takes a long time to eval using github eval. before it starts actually doing the work? | 03:44:54 |
| Fabián Heredia | I don't feel it takes a long time, probably close to the network requirement of a couple do en MBs of data being transfered. | 03:54:17 |

 Lun | If you accidentally try to kick off a 50k package rebuild it can oom/hang forever at that stage iirc | 04:00:35 |
 dish [Fox/It/She] | GHA has slow CPUs and low RAM | 04:00:49 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | if you're talking about nixpkgs-review-gha | 04:01:00 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | if not, then its just taking a while | 04:01:08 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | it is what it is | 04:01:13 |
 K900 | @emily have we forgot about time64 by default? | 09:26:20 |
| K900 | I lost track | 09:26:29 |
 Grimmauld (any/all) | You mean https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/420063 ? | 09:31:48 |
| K900 | Yeah | 09:32:56 |
| K900 | I'm thinking we should just send it | 09:33:22 |
| K900 | As we're early in the cycle | 09:33:36 |
