@Las:matrix.orgLas John Ericsonwhat should I do to get 12668 merged, or has the equivalent work already been done? Haven’t been following development for a bit 17:02:14
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonequivalent work has not been merged17:06:38
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonyou can try doing a rebase17:06:46
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonand also let me try to find again the rebase I had done before17:06:59
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson Las: yeah l-as-goal-direct-io in my repo is a rebase that doesn't quite work of the first commit 17:11:43

@trofi:matrix.org@trofi:matrix.org left the room.05:27:17
@dramforever:matrix.orgdramforeveri can't reproduce this on 2.28.305:38:22
@dramforever:matrix.orgdramforever
$ nix eval '.#è'
4
$ nix eval '.#测试'
3
$ cat flake.nix  
{
  outputs = { self }: {
    "测试" = 3;
    "è" = 4;
  };
}

@dramforever:matrix.orgdramforeveroh wait does it have to be registry?05:39:30
@dramforever:matrix.orgdramforeveroh yeah that's odd.05:40:03
@dramforever:matrix.orgdramforever* oh yeah that's odd...05:40:06
@dramforever:matrix.orgdramforeverso the problem seems to be confined to parsing? i suspect the fix will be easy05:41:25
@dramforever:matrix.orgdramforever* so the problem seems to be confined to parsing flake urls? i suspect the fix will be easy05:41:33
@dramforever:matrix.orgdramforever

oh yeah this is so funny

$ nix registry add test path:$(pwd)
$ nix eval 'test#%C3%A8'           
4
$ nix eval 'test#%E6%B5%8B%E8%AF%95'

05:48:51
@dramforever:matrix.orgdramforeveryeah it's broken05:51:44
@dramforever:matrix.orgdramforever you can't nix profile install it 05:51:54
@dramforever:matrix.orgdramforever * you can't nix profile install it, for example 05:52:06
@dramforever:matrix.orgdramforeverbut i still think it's not fundamentally unfixable05:52:15

John Ericson i just noticed this meeting minutes https://discourse.nixos.org/t/2025-05-28-nix-team-meeting-minutes-229/65205 especially about #13042, and ... it doesn't really make sense to me.

Appears to be a problem with running 32-bit x86 on x86_64-linux. This should work, but is possibly host-dependent and seccomp may interfere.

No, it's trying to run 64-bit programs in a 32-bit derivation, which fails as expected. It should not work and the build is wrong.

The basic issue is that the code was written assuming cross

Incomplete sentence? If "assuming cross builds don't run tests" was meant then yes that's correct

(Temporarily dropping this here because I'm not sure where I should be putting it.)

@Las:matrix.orgLas Maybe I'm dumb, but I did git clone ... ; nix develop .#native-clangStdenv ; meson build and it fails now? 13:54:32

@Las:matrix.orgLas nvm... I forgot to do configurePhase, but I don't see why it's necessary 13:55:51
@Las:matrix.orgLas I really feel like meson build alone should do everything 13:55:58
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson
In reply to @Las:matrix.org
nvm... I forgot to do configurePhase, but I don't see why it's necessary
Because of extra arguments in the command line
16:06:08
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn EricsonBecause perl is non-standard16:06:25
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn EricsonMaybe it can be changed 16:06:31
