emily | sure you can | 20:05:35 |
emily | they have built-in Linux VMs with full graphical Wayland app support | 20:05:42 |
emily | Android Studio is explicitly supported on the Intel ones at least | 20:05:50 |
emily | no idea about the ARM ones but it'd surprise me if not | 20:05:57 |

DavHau | Occasionally I encounter cross packages which simply compile binaries for the wrong platform. Is there a hook in nixpkgs that I can use to check if all binaries in $out/bin are for the correct platform? | 06:43:18 |
K900 | I don't think so, but it would be nice to have one | 06:49:49 |
DavHau | done: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/467183 | 16:04:09 |
K900 | I wonder how much it'll suck to just add it by default | 16:08:43 |
hexa | could this work with python3Minimal? | 16:10:25 |
DavHau | Let's add it by default later. I would like to make it available at all for now.
And yeah, good point, it should use python3Minimal | 16:11:49 |
hexa | also not sure how fancy we want to go, but couldn't the hook be null in non-cross situations | 16:23:54 |
hexa | that way we wouldn't have to guard it on every use | 16:24:14 |
DavHau | I think it would be better to go the route to always include it by default. even in non-cross scenarios. the check is very cheap. | 16:25:21 |
hexa | yeah, eventually | 21:44:33 |
hexa | but until then it would ease adoption | 21:44:42 |

DavHau | I'm not sure, because maybe someone wants to use it in a non-cross scenario, and then they cannot, because it is null. | 03:42:34 |
