 alexfmpe | dwp seems to also not exist in the mingwW64-targetting one | 20:14:03 |
| alexfmpe | where's stuff like x86_64-w64-mingw32-dlltool coming from? | 20:14:32 |
 sterni | hm this is the build log for it but quick ctrl+f shows nothing interesting https://hydra.nixos.org/build/148559396/nixlog/1 | 20:16:52 |
 John Ericson | alexfmpe: gold probably just doesn't support PE (portable executable) as opposed to ELF which linux uses | 20:41:07 |
 ius | siraben: Consider RiscV/Power(PC)/MIPS if you're looking for something which can actually run on hardware. Plenty of issues to solve once you go a step further than just building a cross toolchain. | 21:39:39 |
| ius | Having toyed around with PowerPC over the past few days I can say there are plenty of rabbit holes to dig yourself into. Surprised to see uImage generation is (was, soon) broken for months. Hard to get something to build with a reasonable closure size for embedded targets though.. (systemd is a bit.. ..feature rich and there's an unfortunate perl dependency lurking in the shadows) | 21:48:35 |

 Alyssa Ross | or help me with BSD | 07:04:11 |
 Mic92 | I use not-os when I need something with less dependencies. | 10:53:04 |
| Mic92 | The thing is debian also depends on perl and systemd for the most part but is still smaller in size. | 10:54:09 |
| sterni | John Ericson: the Platform.linker refactor has made pkgsLLVM use bfd and it has taken me till now to notice lol | 18:01:26 |
| sterni | shows how inactive I was on that front, I guess… | 18:01:36 |
| sterni | easy to fix though | 18:01:49 |
| Alyssa Ross | oh that explains some things | 18:46:41 |
| sterni | ohhhh right | 18:46:53 |
| Alyssa Ross | :) | 18:47:29 |
| sterni | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/132571 | 18:47:35 |
| Alyssa Ross | let's see if that resolves my problem | 18:48:05 |
| sterni | for boost this was giving me strange failures, like mixing ld.bfd libgcc and compiler-rt resulted in crti.o not being found | 18:49:25 |
| Alyssa Ross | yeah I was getting similar with grpc I think | 18:49:44 |
| Alyssa Ross | or re2? | 18:50:06 |
| Alyssa Ross | something like that | 18:50:13 |
| Alyssa Ross | oh, LLVM is cross-compiling, so I have to build glibc first | 18:50:58 |
| Alyssa Ross | * I have to build glibc grpc first | 18:51:10 |
| Alyssa Ross | We really should invent a better canExecute | 18:51:27 |
| sterni | grpc depends on buildPackages.grpc? | 18:51:47 |
| Alyssa Ross | yeah | 18:51:53 |
| Alyssa Ross | as of, like, yesterday | 18:51:58 |
| sterni | ah, that's annoying | 18:52:02 |
| Alyssa Ross | (prior to yesterday it just didn't cross-compile) | 18:52:21 |
| Alyssa Ross | specifically I have to build glibc grpc, glibc protobuf, llvm protobuf, then llvm grpc, one at a time | 18:53:09 |
