@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughan* but I believe it works fine without re2Support 12:59:24
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughanand it's optional12:59:26
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughan(mercurial that is)12:59:34
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughanhttps://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/nixos-unstable/pkgs/by-name/me/mercurial/package.nix#L912:59:42
@dramforever:matrix.orgdramforeveror maybe we could get a better fork of pyre213:00:25
@dramforever:matrix.orgdramforeverwhy don't we just make mercurial use google-re213:08:31
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughanhttps://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/45166513:36:48
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughanWeird, this one still fails on Nix specifically13:36:55
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughanlike Nix itself, fails to build, but the derivation alone is fine13:37:04

@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughan like, is Nix itself overriding perl in some way to make this fail Alyssa Ross ? 13:37:24
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughan The code in pkgs/tools/package-management/nix/common-meson.nix looks pretty hacky 13:37:50
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughanLike it appears there are even two DBIs instantiated there in the graph 13:38:13
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughan to get a pkgs.nixos {} to compile with musl I had to nix.enable = false is the context here 13:40:25
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughanI'll make it simpler by just doing the native musl case where it fails too13:41:37
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughan

Ah, in that case the following happens, so it fails differently
