 Gytis Ivaskevicius | oh, so this would make it easier for us to build minimal pkgs and basically to complie gcc -> recomplie -> done | 17:28:35 |
 John Ericson | yeha | 17:30:19 |
| John Ericson | * yeah | 17:30:21 |
| John Ericson | bootstrap tools would probably ship no libs just raw gcc | 17:30:30 |
| John Ericson | then rebuild libgcc and up | 17:30:37 |
| John Ericson | then build new gcc | 17:30:45 |
| John Ericson | done | 17:30:46 |
| John Ericson | also, screw boostrap tools | 17:30:52 |
| John Ericson | let's do the guix thing | 17:30:56 |
| John Ericson | much better | 17:31:00 |
 infinisil | What do they do? | 17:31:09 |
 K900 | Yo how did we go from "let's move some files around" to "let's build a new bootstrap" | 17:31:14 |
| John Ericson | they are trying to bootstrap from nothing | 17:31:18 |
| infinisil | There has to be something! | 17:31:33 |
| John Ericson | K900: well, these are all the nice things mostly blocked on compilers being packaged well | 17:31:55 |
| John Ericson | also the guix thing is much better with content-addressed derivations to avoid rebuilds | 17:32:07 |
| John Ericson | which in turn requires hydra stuff | 17:32:13 |
| John Ericson | maybe now that eelco is with graham that can happen | 17:32:24 |
| infinisil | We shouldn't block ourselves on Nix though | 17:32:54 |

Yo how did we go from "let's move some files around" to "let's build a new bootstrap" John Ericson: is a very charming man, please let him continue charming us with low level nix legacy <3 | 17:33:09 |
| John Ericson | https://github.com/NixOS/hydra/pull/1180 | 17:33:30 |
| John Ericson | this should happen | 17:33:38 |
| John Ericson | "small functions are confusing" is not good | 17:33:52 |

this should happen ca-derivations in hydra in general would be great and I think a good base for some improvements, it's not super clear to me why it's all so stuck | 08:20:50 |

ca-derivations in hydra in general would be great and I think a good base for some improvements, it's not super clear to me why it's all so stuck It's mostly stuck bc of Hydra. Making hydra support it cleanly is a lot of painful work | 09:08:01 |
| Rick (Mindavi) | And the current efforts are not clean enough then? | 09:43:40 |
