Atemu | Ah disambiguation: on building the lix project | 20:57:39 |
jaen | Part of it is probably because they spawn `nix` to write the dynamic derivation | 20:57:40 |
jaen | Or maybe lix uses some feature they don't support yet | 20:57:58 |
jaen | But for AOSP it's certainly the sheer scale | 20:58:09 |
Atemu | Ah, hm it might not worked on Lix now that I think about it but I built some other medium sized project and it could barely handle that and took quite a lot of time to even begin building anything | 20:59:01 |
Atemu | If we're going to make it incremental, I think the only way forward is the hard way; packaging every AOSP project as a drv and wiring them together ourselves | 21:01:42 |
Atemu | If you have experience with ninja, make and the like, there's probably lots you could help us with here | 21:02:33 |
jaen | In reply to @atemu12:matrix.org If we're going to make it incremental, I think the only way forward is the hard way; packaging every AOSP project as a drv and wiring them together ourselves Maybe so, but I wouldn't discount it until it has a proper parallel parser (part I was working on) and doesn't have to spawn nix to do things with derivation. If both those are fixed and it still chokes - fair enough, I guess. | 21:06:48 |
