 Tomodachi94 (they/them) | (We could also introduce "prefixed" packages; we have one for coreutils for example, so it's not unprecedented) | 02:25:44 |
| Tomodachi94 (they/them) | * I don't think there's anything built-in, but my first thought was somehow prefixing the names of the executables. Symlinks maybe? | 02:26:18 |
 Ami | in terms of what i'd prefer to type in my shell, it'd be something like java8 -jar whatever.jar | 02:28:46 |
 Infinidoge 🏳️⚧️ | Python type beat | 02:58:10 |
| Infinidoge 🏳️⚧️ | While it would be slightly unorthodox to include in the base package, I think it would be nice to support | 02:59:42 |
| Infinidoge 🏳️⚧️ | Maybe we could Be The Change and convince JDK to start doing this in general | 03:00:00 |
|  @nullcube:matrix.org joined the room. | 09:59:00 |
 FliegendeWurst | Did anyone see this kind of build failure for openjdk8 before?
zip I/O error: No such file or directory
zip error: Could not create output file (was replacing the original zip file)
make[2]: *** [CreateJars.gmk:659: /build/source/build/linux-x86_64-normal-server-release/images/src.zip] Error 1
(it occurs on the staging branch)

 emily | you're probably just gonna have to bisect it | 11:50:30 |
| emily | have you tested with .override { stdenv = gcc13Stdenv; } though? | 11:50:37 |
| FliegendeWurst | In reply to @emilazy:matrix.org
have you tested with .override { stdenv = gcc13Stdenv; } though? yes, same error | 14:02:44 |
| emily | excitin | 14:02:59 |
| emily | * exciting | 14:03:00 |
| emily | was the zip package touched? | 14:03:07 |
| FliegendeWurst | in May | 14:03:32 |
| emily | hm | 14:04:21 |
| emily | it might be bisect time :) | 14:04:23 |
| emily | git bisect start --first-parent staging && git bisect run nix build -f . openjdk8, say | 14:05:00 |
| emily | (and be prepared to skip commits…) | 14:05:10 |
| FliegendeWurst | yeah, but it will be a bit annoying for me. I built my prev. staging iterations with strictDepsByDefault | 14:05:55 |
| FliegendeWurst | so I either constantly backport those fixes, or rebuild everything without the setting | 14:06:08 |
| FliegendeWurst | then again, a bisect on staging will rebuild everything very often anyway | 14:06:19 |
| emily | are there strictDeps fixes in the pipeline? :) | 14:06:46 |
| emily | or already merged? | 14:06:48 |
| FliegendeWurst | yes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/355844
not merged | 14:07:00 |
| FliegendeWurst | some are a bit fishy, like including wayland-scanner in buildInputs only to please the ./configure script | 14:07:56 |
| emily | anyway, it's not that bad, since bisection is O(log n) | 14:07:57 |
| FliegendeWurst | oh good news! | 14:09:17 |
| FliegendeWurst | jdk8.override { stdenv = gcc13Stdenv; zip = zip.override { stdenv = gcc13Stdenv; }; } builds | 14:09:19 |
| FliegendeWurst | (I bet you could remove the first override) | 14:09:30 |
