@roberthensing:matrix.orgRobert Hensing (roberth)Has new tests, so that's helpful, but a bit scary. Just learned about new regressions, so I'll be looking into those first11:31:09

So I was trying to get nix running on freebsd (inside kvm/qemu) and failing.

The port (https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/tree/sysutils/nix) doesn't compile (it uses an old version of nix and I don't know how to update it).
Nix doesn't have documentation on bootstrapping nix without nix (and even on linux entering the shell + meson setup doesn't work, you need configurePhase)
My last attempt was cross-compiling nix for freebsd from linux (this succeded) but both nix-build and nix build (with the experimental feature flags) fail with this error.

Is there some way to do this that I am missing? If there isn't then the cross-compilation is illusory and there's not actually freebsd support
