@artturin:matrix.orgArtturin Let's add doInstallCheckCross? 02:04:23

Let's add doInstallCheckCross?
hmm, there are some old TODOs about not forcing doInstallCheck to be false on cross. idk if those might still be relevant

In reply to @colin:uninsane.org
is there an easy way i can build all passthru.tests for every package i have on my system?
I'm not aware of an easy way

@neobrain:matrix.org@neobrain:matrix.orgIs it possible to use nix to install a cross-compiling GCC (including libstdc++) targeting a non-nix runtime environment (i.e. using the host libc and reading libraries from /usr/lib)?08:39:50
@neobrain:matrix.org@neobrain:matrix.org(I'm assuming this would be equivalent to compiling gcc without any nix-specific patches, which is probably easier said than done)08:40:53

@greg:thehellings.comGreg HellingsI've used it to build Windows binaries, so I'm sure what you're asking for is possible. There are lots of targets under the pkgsCross collection, including Android, many flavors of BSD, Windows, Darwin, and more.04:07:35
