 Puna | so it definitely also links build-grub-mkfont with a freetype for the wrong platform when cross-compiling for other targets, but it only seems to complain when there is a difference in endianness? wack…

 Leonard-Orlando Menzel | has someone successfully crosscompiled gnome passes? it fails at build, but if i change the python in native buildinputs to ' (buildPackages.python3.withPackages (pp: [ pp.pygobject3 ]))' (adding the buildPackages prefix) it successuflly compiles, but i cant execute the resulting binary | 11:34:53 |
 Artturin | What's the package name, I don't see a package called gnome-passes | 11:59:45 |
| Artturin | .withPackages discards splicing so you have to python3.pythonOnBuildForHost or buildPackages.python3 | 12:01:02 |
| Leonard-Orlando Menzel | the package name is just passes | 12:09:15 |
| Artturin | Doesn't look related to gnome :P | 12:11:04 |
| Artturin | Why does it not launch | 12:11:09 |
| Artturin | Can't cross on my laptop atm | 12:11:14 |
| Artturin | Wrong python in some place I assume | 12:13:05 |
| Artturin | Shebang? add python3 to buildInpus and patchShebang --host the file in bin | 12:13:34 |
| Artturin | * Shebang? add python3 to buildInputs and patchShebang --host the file in bin | 12:13:53 |
| Leonard-Orlando Menzel | i now looked at .passes-wrapped the shebang indeed is the x86_64 (builder not host) version of python | 12:14:50 |
| Leonard-Orlando Menzel | will try that | 12:14:59 |
| Leonard-Orlando Menzel | patchShebangs didnt work (i guess because the shebang allready is a store path) but replacing it with sed did the trick. opened a merge request https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/491759 | 13:19:33 |
| Artturin | patchShebangs has --update | 13:20:47 |
| Artturin | I forgot | 13:20:55 |
| Artturin | * I forgot to mention it https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/build-support/setup-hooks/patch-shebangs.sh | 13:21:20 |
| Artturin | But yours is fine too | 13:24:35 |
| Artturin | for patchShebangs you need to add the (python3.withPackages (pp: [ pp.pygobject3 ])) to buildInputs | 13:25:01 |
| Artturin | Which you did 👍️ | 13:25:42 |
| Leonard-Orlando Menzel | tested again, still works :) thanks for helping | 13:35:24 |
