 oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | Pain, they have added their own "vpython3" distirbution to the depot_tools of Chromium, I tried updating depot_tools since it was from 2020 | 02:54:36 |
| oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | Maybe it is possible to get it working if I autoPatchelf the binaries or something | 02:55:23 |
| oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | Or try to create similar Python environment with Nix and then patchShebangs | 02:57:30 |
 atemu12 | I thought chromium was built inside of an FHS container? | 02:58:52 |
| atemu12 | Like the android build? | 02:59:00 |
| oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | Can I use normal dynamic linking if I create FHS shell? | 02:59:33 |
| atemu12 | Yup | 02:59:52 |
| atemu12 | That's what it's for | 02:59:57 |
| oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | That's a thing to try tomorrow | 03:00:21 |
| oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | This mk-vendor-file.py calls some depot_tools/gclient.py flatten --pin-all-deps tool, and it seems to use some bundled "vpython3" tool, which is a virtualenv + some version of Python3 I think | 03:01:55 |
| oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | And they extensively do just call the process vpython3 everywhere | 03:02:41 |
| oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | They expect to find executable vpython3 in PATH | 03:03:10 |
| oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | They had repo tool, but then they had to write different tool for Chromium project | 03:04:05 |
 ryantrinkle | What's the smoothest phone and android to use with robotnix these days? | 16:58:52 |
| ryantrinkle | like, least likely to run into issues with building, updating, etc. | 16:59:16 |
| ryantrinkle | i'm on graphene now, but haven't updated in a long time | 16:59:35 |
 samueldr | if you read the past few days' chatter, those that got built for and installed are likely those that fit your criteria... | 17:12:26 |
| samueldr | ... but also I would presume that any that are currently well-supported by LineageOS in one of the supported release are almost just as likely to work well | 17:13:00 |
| samueldr | (IIRC the previously mentioned phones were a fairphone, 4 IIRC? and oneplus 5?(T?)) | 17:13:41 |
| samueldr | or uh... hmmm... lol https://github.com/nix-community/robotnix/blob/master/flavors/lineageos/supported_devices.toml | 17:14:47 |
| samueldr | ah right, instantnoodle is oneplus 8 https://github.com/nix-community/robotnix/pull/258 | 17:15:27 |
| samueldr | * ah right, instantnoodle is oneplus 8
| 17:15:38 |
| oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | Depends on what you want to run, I'd say if you want to run LineageOS then those devices supported by LineageOS are easy go | 21:00:13 |
| oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | If I'd buy a new Android phone right now, I'd probably go for 256GB model of Pixel 9 Pro | 21:00:39 |
| oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | I have instantnoodlep which is OnePlus 8 Pro, it's also a bit old at this point, the last officially supported update came out few months ago. (OnePlus usually supports their devices for 4 years.) Then I used my even older OnePlus 5T (dumpling) as a test phone, even that seems to run LineageOS 21. But I think that's because that LineageOS developer luk1337 puts quite much effort to supporting those devices | 21:03:52 |
| oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | https://github.com/melontini/bootloader-unlock-wall-of-shame | 21:06:14 |
| oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | What is cool about Pixel 8 and Pixel 9 is that they support the new ARM Memory Tagging Extensions | 21:10:25 |
