 emily | yes, they don't nest | 06:09:20 |
| emily | just invoke Nixpkgs with a custom platform defining the things you need | 06:09:25 |
| emily | the pkgsFoos are really just convenience helpers | 06:09:35 |
| emily | import nixpkgs { localSystem = …; crossSystem = …; } is the true interface | 06:09:45 |
| emily | lib.systems.examples.aarch64-android-prebuilt // { isStatic = true; } should do it | 06:11:07 |
| emily | no guarantees it works at all | 06:11:10 |
| alexfmpe | yeah I know we can manually specify the system, it's just a bit of a trap that the convenience helpers evaluate without error but with inconsistent config | 06:36:58 |
| alexfmpe | pkgsCross.aarch64-android-prebuilt.pkgsStatic.hello works on my phone just right | 06:37:21 |
| alexfmpe | * since pkgsCross.aarch64-android-prebuilt.pkgsStatic.hello works on my phone | 06:37:51 |
| emily | it's unfortunate yeah | 06:42:35 |
| emily | it's non-trivial to fix though | 06:42:38 |

 dramforever | is make nconfig in linux.configEnv supposed to work? i get
*
* Unable to find the ncurses package.
* Install ncurses (ncurses-devel or libncurses-dev
* depending on your distribution).

* You may also need to install pkg-config to find the

| dramforever | oh i actually figured it out, this
configEnv = finalAttrs.finalPackage.overrideAttrs (previousAttrs: {
nativeBuildInputs =
should be depsBuildBuild

 rosssmyth | I've been doing some work toward cross-compiling for MSVC. Mainly because I have some software I build at work that I build for Linux and mingw, but MSVC would be preferable for interop with other software we have. Got some basic stuff going.
- Create essentially a fetcher for the SDK
- Download the SDK and fix it up
- Wrap clang-cl
- Wrap rustc
Can compile hello world. I've not tested it on anything more complicated yet.

 Greg Hellings | Hey y'all, cross-compiling pkgsCross.ucrtAarch64.stdenv.cc for Windows on Arm has been broken for about a month. A quick bisect points to commit 4f8431266ce9a84b5c524a310e931681b2d7db5a | 04:27:43 |
| Greg Hellings | Seems to make sense, as that change specifically creates a symlink between libunwind.so and libgcc_s.so files, which are notably absent in the ucrtAarch64 target, as it is a purely LLVM environment with no gcc present | 04:29:07 |
| Greg Hellings | Nope, looks like the problem is the file paths. Windows keeps its shared libraries under /bin/ with a .dll extension whereas on other platforms they tend to be .so files in /lib/ | 04:38:50 |
