 matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | I have an llvm, llvm-musl, llvm nixos config and the minimal nix files to change that now | 01:12:57 |
| matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | it's not too much, but it was a lot of research | 01:13:34 |
| matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | when I get my m2 ultra I'm gonna put up some CI on github for it | 01:15:00 |

 SomeoneSerge (back on matrix) | py_mod.find_installation() with strictDeps = true seems to pick up meson's interpreter, rather than the python-env wrapper from buildInputs | 16:47:51 |
| SomeoneSerge (back on matrix) | FWIW I tried to trace the chain from find_installation to find_program in hopes to understand how does one even specify which platform's python they want, and my conclusion was "fuck if I know" | 16:48:54 |
| SomeoneSerge (back on matrix) | mesonbuild matrix says it's supposed to look for the host python, so something must be wrong on our side | 21:52:00 |
 rosssmyth | What are you working on? If this is running at build-time it will probably sniff around PATH and find the meson interpreter or something. Add python to depsBuildBuild or nativeBuildInputs. buildInputs is for a python interpreter than runs on the host machine the final executable runs on, so at build time it will not find it. | 22:14:16 |
| SomeoneSerge (back on matrix) |
this is running at build-time
It's not, it's for the host. The find_installation method is, according to upstream chat, for the host. It's a meson-packaged gtk app written in python o_0. Native/strictDeps=false works and builds fine, but like why would I want strictDeps=false this is cringe

| SomeoneSerge (back on matrix) | Mhmmm update: it's basically the same disaster as cmake, they look to run python from PATH on BUILD, but want its sysconfig to return cross stuff | 01:11:07 |
| SomeoneSerge (back on matrix) | So I guess nvm it's meant to be broken | 01:11:21 |
| rosssmyth | Maybe. You might be able to add a path to one of these options https://mesonbuild.com/Builtin-options.html#python-module but who knows. If not then patching your cross-file may be required with substituteInPlace or replaceVars | 01:28:56 |

| matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | What should the correct solution be for this instead of relying on glibcPkgs?
...
netbsd = super.netbsd.overrideScope (
_final: prev: {
compat = prev.compat.overrideAttrs (old: { makeFlags = old.makeFlags ++ [ "OBJCOPY=${glibcPkgs.binutils}/bin/strip" ]; });
}
);

| matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | this turned out to not do anything | 14:38:54 |

| matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | Anyone got any guesses as to why this might be happening then?
