connor (he/him)	X86 has a cuda_compat library too from what I remember, it’s just not available as a redist So maybe we shouldn’t package the one for Jetsons And instead, nixglhost should use the one on the host system if it is available	16:36:17
connor (he/him)	Although that won’t us on NixOS systems — cuda_compat is usually provided as a Debian with newer releases of CUDA, so it would just fail to run on NixOS systems if the driver isn’t new enough	16:37:40

SomeoneSerge (back on matrix)	So maybe we shouldn’t package the one for Jetsons No, I think whenever it's available we'd rather do the pure linking, because that's what we do to other libraries. This is in general a tradeoff, and it would have been great if we had tools for quickly relinking stuff/tools for building stuff against reproducible content-addressed stubs with a separate linking phase, but that's not where we are	16:39:50
