@cyclopentane:aidoskyneen.eupentane ⭔i'd also like to attend more events these days but I got a job in embedded NixOS development recently that's pretty time consuming :D19:30:25
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rb:D nice!19:31:50
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbyea im doing numtide stuff these days19:31:58
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbgood to know that adding microg forces the big build to rebuild20:44:05
@atemu12:matrix.orgatemu12Basically anything forces the android drv to rebuild20:50:03
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rb:(21:02:04
@atemu12:matrix.orgatemu12And it's really hard to make it work differently21:02:29
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbI imagine, otherwise youd have done it21:02:44
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbAndroid really doesnt want to be split up im guessing21:03:06
@atemu12:matrix.orgatemu12There are separate parts but there's hundreds of repos and mapping them to drvs is not trivial21:04:10
@cyclopentane:aidoskyneen.eupentane ⭔someone of us has got to infiltrate google and nixify android upstream21:26:48

@oak:universumi.fioak 🏳️‍🌈♥️Wasn't the original creator of Robotnix (Daniel Fullmer) also experimenting generating different derivations for the different parts of the Android project (instead of building it as a one big thing)?10:55:18
@oak:universumi.fioak 🏳️‍🌈♥️https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tj8t0aRaUro There's a NixCon 2020 talk10:55:28
@oak:universumi.fioak 🏳️‍🌈♥️I guess the experiments are here https://github.com/danielfullmer/soongnix and here https://github.com/danielfullmer/blueprint2nix10:56:41
@atemu12:matrix.orgatemu12Yup10:56:54
@oak:universumi.fioak 🏳️‍🌈♥️I think the main problem is that we'd just need a team of contributors to maintain the solution11:06:01
@atemu12:matrix.orgatemu12Yehh11:11:00
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbit takes me an hour and a half to build android, so its not that big of a deal for me that i have to rebuild it11:59:41
@atemu12:matrix.orgatemu12Still annoying12:00:57
@atemu12:matrix.orgatemu12ccache can cut build time by ~half12:01:17
@atemu12:matrix.orgatemu12There's also some validation stuff you can disable; I've done it in my config12:05:32
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbisnt ccache deprecated?12:07:39
