Is there an example somewhere of where multilib + crosspkgs is broken? From #380325

What would it take to fix it?

Hello! I'm new to cross-compiling on NixOS. I want to compile C code for my custom M68k computer.

This is what my flake.nix file currently looks like:

{
  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
    flake-utils.url = "github:numtide/flake-utils?ref=main";
  };

  outputs =
    inputs:
    inputs.flake-utils.lib.eachDefaultSystem (
      system:
      let
        pkgs = inputs.nixpkgs.legacyPackages.${system};
      in
        {
          devShells.default = pkgs.mkShell {
            packages = (
              with pkgs; [
                minipro
                gnumake
                pkgsCross.m68k.buildPackages.gcc
                xxd
              ]
            );
          };
        }
    );
}

I think I want to remove the pkgsCross.m68k line and add in crossSystem pointing at this patch from K900: https://github.com/K900/nixpkgs/commit/e8d4e76093cd396805e76c908734a351cc6d1f39
But I'm not really clear on what I'm actually doing (plus I want my other packages to not be cross-compiled as I want to run them on my x86 box)

let pkgsCrossM68k = import inputs.nixpkgs { system = "x86_64-linux"; cross-system = "m68k-unknown-none-elf"; }; in pkgs.mkShell { ... packages = [ pkgsCrossM68k.stdenv.cc ]; }

{
  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
    flake-utils.url = "github:numtide/flake-utils?ref=main";
  };

  outputs =
    inputs:
    inputs.flake-utils.lib.eachDefaultSystem (
      system:
      let
        pkgs = inputs.nixpkgs.legacyPackages.${system};
        pkgsCrossM68k = import "/home/stephen/src/k900/nixpkgs" {
          system = "x86_64-linux"; cross-system = "m68k-unknown-none-elf";
        };
      in
        {
          devShells.default = pkgs.mkShell {
            packages = (
              with pkgs; [
                minipro
                gnumake
                xxd

                pkgsCrossM68k.stdenv.cc
              ]
            );
          };
        }
    );
}

I'm doing nix develop --impure for now. I'll fix the path once things are good
