 Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | no guarantees, but i might learn something, so i'll give it a casual poke | 10:04:19 |
 Alyssa Ross | Must be bisectable at least | 10:05:11 |
| Alyssa Ross | I just haven't had the time | 10:05:18 |
| Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | i can do the bisect | 10:08:13 |
| Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | that at least isn't hard | 10:08:24 |
| Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | just takes a while because waiting for gcc compiles | 10:08:49 |
| Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | so uh, i just got a gcc build fail on the way to bootstrap tools... | 10:27:26 |

whatever this is

 K900 | That's a stupid stdenv bug, the real error should be above that | 10:30:09 |
| Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | There is also /nix/store/mr6bjhlhd966kl6f2wmggsan6mbs5bcj-bootstrap-stage3-stdenv-linux/setup: line 297: /nix/store/7xs7kwm3010k16fmgfpypwiy0wxx03fn-binutils-patchelfed-ld-wrapper-2.44/nix-support/libc-ldflags-before: No such file or directory which might be concerning | 10:31:58 |
| Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | but i accidentially killed the log, oops. Gemme 5min to upload it to termbin again | 10:32:28 |
 Vladimír Čunát | I saw a similar case. And the relevant part seems to be ld complaining about libiberty. | 10:35:21 |
| Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | ye | 10:38:53 |
| Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | libiberty.a, did we kill the static build? | 10:39:14 |
| Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | hmm, no, that bootstrap stage builds libiberty itself instead of pulling the dedicated package | 10:43:03 |
| Vladimír Čunát | 🤷 let's wait which commit the blame falls on. Hopefully it will help. | 10:44:06 |
| Vladimír Čunát | So this one?
411faf46e2c8 gcc: build with --enable-default-pie configure option (#439314)
| 11:22:38 |
| Vladimír Čunát | Reconfirmed breaking nix build -f pkgs/top-level/release.nix stdenvBootstrapTools.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.test on this commit and OK on its first parent (the staging branch lineage). | 11:33:49 |
| Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | uh oh | 11:38:32 |
| Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | that is a fat mass-rebuild, so how will we fix it? | 11:39:09 |

Trying the naive thing rn

| Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | if this works, then we are done | 11:46:27 |
| Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | if this doesn't work, then emily will have to fix it XD | 11:47:05 |
| Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | HOLY SHIT THAT WORKS | 11:53:51 |
| K900 | Welp | 11:54:11 |
| K900 | Mes when | 11:54:20 |
 @wolfgangwalther:matrix.org | lucky emily, then. | 11:54:25 |
| Grimmauld (migrated to @grimmauld:m.grimmauld.de) | tbh i have no idea wtf i am doing, but if this works then i won't complain | 11:55:08 |
| Vladimír Čunát | Off the top of my head I'm not sure how many times we roll gcc, i.e. whether the final build (stdenv.cc.cc) will really be PIE enough. But surely better this for now than blocking for long. | 11:56:59 |
