 Alyssa Ross | So not quite so much rebuilding | 14:43:15 |
| Alyssa Ross | Oh right but it rebuilds the hook 😅 | 14:48:47 |
 QuadRadical (Ping) | it actually did end up building | 14:56:06 |
| QuadRadical (Ping) | so i can confirm it works | 14:56:09 |
 emily | uh, what were you building exactly? | 14:56:22 |
| emily | because the PR is sufficiently old that the package would not have been broken in the first place on its HEAD | 14:56:35 |
| emily | if you tested the merge then that means something | 14:56:42 |
| QuadRadical (Ping) | `nix build github:alyssais/nixpkgs/cargo-cross#pkgsCross.aarch64-multiplatform.thin-pro
visioning-tools` | 14:56:52 |
| QuadRadical (Ping) | nix build github:alyssais/nixpkgs/cargo-cross#pkgsCross.aarch64-multiplatform.thin-pro
visioning-tools
| 14:57:14 |
| emily | yeah, that is testing the package as it existed in like 2023 when cross wasn't broken in the first place | 14:57:20 |
| QuadRadical (Ping) | nix build github:alyssais/nixpkgs/cargo-cross#pkgsCross.aarch64-multiplatform.thin-provisioning-tools | 14:57:28 |
| QuadRadical (Ping) | ohh, the rust cross breaking is a recent thing? | 14:57:39 |
| emily | it was probably caused by https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/419746. | 14:58:27 |
| emily | not sure it was even Rust in 2022. | 14:58:34 |
| QuadRadical (Ping) | oh, i see | 14:58:47 |
| QuadRadical (Ping) | ill retest as soon as its rebased so let me know please :) | 14:59:00 |
| QuadRadical (Ping) | and thank you emily and alyssa | 14:59:06 |
| emily | I would suggest pulling Alyssa's branch locally before testing | 14:59:12 |
| emily | since it is likely you will need to patch the package still | 14:59:18 |
| emily | (once rebased, of course) | 14:59:28 |
| QuadRadical (Ping) | sure yeah, ill try building as is once its rebased but if not ill pull it locally | 14:59:36 |
 John Ericson | Toma: feel free to try removing those exceptions | 20:31:35 |
| John Ericson | hooks should be nativeBuildInputs most of the time, which can make splicing tricky | 20:32:01 |
| John Ericson | I would expect it to be hard to remove them | 20:32:29 |
 lzcunt | Hey there, I'm trying to build for freestanding loongarch64, however it seems like we default on "newlib" as the libc for both "-none" and "-elf" but newlib doesn't support loongarch64. | 20:54:04 |
 Artturin | Tried specifying libc = "something";? | 20:55:31 |
| Artturin | * Tried specifying libc = "something"; in the platform config? | 20:55:43 |
| lzcunt | yea ofc that works but it's awkward that -none means newlib especially for architectures that newlib doesn't support | 20:56:05 |
| Artturin | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/0455292066a49d3670dd7709ee82deb5531aa3c4/lib/systems/default.nix#L152 | 20:56:28 |
| lzcunt | should nixpkgs maybe not default to newlib for those architectures? | 20:57:59 |
