 aidalgol | correct | 20:49:35 |
| aidalgol | but before the steam wrapper change, trying to run a second instance would just raise the existing instance's window. | 20:50:10 |
 K900 | As in, the "runs two instances" behavior is wrong | 20:50:21 |
| K900 | And the expected behavior is to activate the existing one | 20:50:29 |
| aidalgol | actually, that might be an intentional change. | 20:50:40 |
| aidalgol | OK, how the hell do I build a Windows executable? I need to package this thing for GOG Galaxy support in Heroic to work properly.

| aidalgol | None of the guides for normal cross-compilation in nixpkgs quite fit this odd scenario. | 22:10:54 |
| aidalgol | i.e. https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Cross_Compiling and https://nix.dev/tutorials/cross-compilation.html by my reading are describing setting up a dev environment for cross compiling using nixpkgs, not packaging, say, a Windows executable for use in an x86_64-linux NixOS package. | 22:15:33 |
| aidalgol | Comet's upstream releases include GalaxyCommunication-dummy.exe, but our comet-gog package does not. I think this .exe was added upstream sometime since the nixpkgs package was added. | 22:18:14 |
| aidalgol | * Comet's upstream releases include GalaxyCommunication-dummy.exe, but our comet-gog package does not because it only builds comet. I think this .exe was added upstream sometime since the nixpkgs package was added. | 22:18:27 |

| aidalgol | SigmaSquadron: Is there anything we can do around the heroic package to get people to bother nixpkgs people first rather than going straight to upstream? This happens a lot. | 02:06:48 |
 SigmaSquadron | Could patch the sources so whenever we get an error message, it provides a link to Nixpkgs instead. | 02:22:45 |
| aidalgol | Yeah, maybe I should do that. I've been hesitant to modify the upstream source much. | 02:57:14 |
| aidalgol | Regarding the Windows helper executables, I have packaged them in PR#432183, and I'm not sure the way I have done so is acceptable in nixpkgs, so I would really appreciate a review on this. | 05:42:20 |
| aidalgol | It's a rather odd scenario because they're Windows dependencies for a Linux application, for games run under Proton. | 05:42:56 |
| K900 | @aidalgol pushed to your PR | 05:55:48 |
| K900 | Can you test | 05:55:49 |
| aidalgol | Yup, fix still works. | 05:59:40 |
| K900 | OK hold on I noticed a thing | 06:20:19 |
| K900 | Pushing a fix now | 06:20:21 |

 Rein | It seems that the STEAM_EXTRA_COMPAT_TOOLS_PATHS is properly set:
❯ steam-run printenv | grep STEAM
STEAM_EXTRA_COMPAT_TOOLS_PATHS=/nix/store/d9xqr8kg4a483ywfb0grl95z6i19vzp1-proton-ge-bin-GE-Proton10-10-steamcompattool/
| 14:37:53 |
| Rein | no idea why I don't get the compatibility tools in steam | 14:38:24 |

| Rein | Okay, I've deleted all files related to Steam and it suddenly works. I have no idea what was the issue tho | 14:45:09 |
| Rein | I've rebuild the system after that and the compatibility tools are not there anymore ;-; | 14:47:50 |
| Rein | * I've rebuilt the system after that and the compatibility tools are not there anymore ;-; | 14:48:36 |
| Rein | It's probably something with Steam, since it worked after deleting $HOME/.local/share/Steam and $HOME/.steam | 14:50:09 |
 Ellie she/they | I'm having this warn with steam:

Anyone knows what is this about? | 15:48:29 |
