So, nix builds its own Phar instead of using the one provided by the maintainers. Interesting. I don't see how this is really relevant in PHP's case, since it's not packaging a binary for the target system. building from source is not just about portability (which is indeed less of an issue with text-based languages like PHP), the primary concern is that the PHAR is opaque, so it is hard to solve issues with it (e.g. apply patches) | 23:52:24 |
| ramsey | good point... it can also be environment-specific | 23:53:06 |
| ramsey | i.e., include the wrong versions of packages for the environment you're on | 23:53:26 |
| Jan Tojnar | then there is also a security aspect – this is not critical for us, since we do not have the resources to verify each source at the moment, but that would be another argument for Debian or Fedora | 23:54:36 |
| Jan Tojnar | but NixOS is still quite pragmatic, so if not using PHAR from upstream is too much work, we will use it | 23:56:34 |
