 Alyssa Ross | Ah, no, the overlay only applies the custom stdenv to Nix | 19:22:26 |
| Alyssa Ross | So it won't work | 19:22:28 |
| Alyssa Ross | cc Ericson2314 | 19:22:30 |
| Alyssa 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 |
 John 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 |
| John Ericson | (more precisely, it is using at least parts of libstdc++ and friends so the ABI is the same?) | 21:28:49 |
| John Ericson | I don't fully get it but I always do clang development builds (mainly out of habit) and don't think I had a problem yet | 21:29:28 |
| Alyssa Ross | hmm, maybe it is? | 21:31:15 |
| Alyssa Ross | I'm not sure | 21:31:26 |
 @qyriad:matrix.org | clangStdenv links libgcc and libstdc++ on Linux, as is the default for Clang on Linux | 23:37:45 |
| Alyssa Ross | I definitely remember it being a problem before, but maybe it wasn't always this way. | 23:39:51 |

 @delroth:delroth.net | hi there - what is the current "tech stack" recommendation for writing new documentation for currently undocumented projects in the Nix ecosystem? in this case, mostly internal facing (github.com/nixos/infra), if it changes anything | 03:23:33 |
| @delroth:delroth.net | (my ideal requirements: proper multipage support with navigation, markdown or at least not docbook, preferably a stylesheet that's not straight out of the 90s) | 03:25:40 |
| @delroth:delroth.net | (this sounds like something which should be documented, maybe with templates, btw :P but I didn't find anything after some quick research) | 03:26:31 |

We have at least 3 different toolchains used throughout all our docs and want to find a way to reduce that amount (ideally to 1 toolchain), but afaik we haven't yet put the effort to see what things would fit our needs the best | 05:05:46 |
| danielsidhion | I literally got started on this exploration today. I want to make some internal nixpkgs docs (all the readme.md files) more visible, so I'm on a similar path as you | 05:07:55 |
