In reply to @johannes.kirschbauer:scs.ems.host
just having fun today: using "nix#nix-clangStdenv" i get SIGSEGV (Address boundary error). But using "nix#nix" is fine.. no segfault.
I just dont understand whats the difference in this convoluted flake.nix file in the cpp nix repository.
Apart from that i would expect either both or none of the outputs to have segfault.
gcc vs clang build

@jade_:matrix.org@jade_:matrix.org segv doesn't tell you anything, please coredumpctl debug if this is Linux and give the back trace (type bt into gdb) 19:18:08
@jade_:matrix.org@jade_:matrix.orgthank you19:18:11
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa RossC++ is not ABI-compatible between GCC and Clang, so you can't build some things with GCC, some with Clang, and then link them together.19:19:04
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa RossIf you override Nix to build with Clang, boost will still be built with GCC19:19:14
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa RossSo it's not expected to work.19:19:29
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa RossIf the Nix flake is doing this, it should stop.19:20:17
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa Rossah, but it looks like it actually overrides stdenv in an overlay, so I guess that should work?19:21:10
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa RossIt's very hard to read19:21:12
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa RossAh, no, the overlay only applies the custom stdenv to Nix19:22:26
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa RossSo it won't work19:22:28
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa Rosscc Ericson2314 19:22:30
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa Ross(It might not actually be ABI compatibility that's the problem — I just remember that it's definitely not expected for this to work)19:31:41
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson Alyssa Ross: if you are using --gcc-toolchain as we are on Linux, isn't it supposed to be ABI compatible? 21:27:53
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson(more precisely, it is using at least parts of libstdc++ and friends so the ABI is the same?)21:28:49
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn EricsonI don't fully get it but I always do clang development builds (mainly out of habit) and don't think I had a problem yet21:29:28
