@hexa:lossy.networkhexaonce memory pressure apparently increases00:28:09
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeI’ve noticed that too. 😕00:37:01

@axel_w:matrix.orgaxwAre there any mdm services in nixpkgs that can be declared? So iOS devices can be managed with nix?08:45:32
@k900:0upti.meK900I don't think that's a thing08:55:07
@viraptor:tchncs.deviraptorHave you got an example of a project that needs it? I'm happy to add it09:17:13
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzGram uses SVG icons: https://codeberg.org/GramEditor/gram/src/branch/main/script/mac-icon-to-car09:18:05
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzhttps://codeberg.org/GramEditor/gram/src/branch/main/crates/gram/resources/AppIcon.icon09:18:23
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzI can fallback to the included PNG icons but the SVG-based one they use for their official distribution does look better 😄09:20:10
@viraptor:tchncs.deviraptorJust coming back to this to confirm - swift-build is used by xcodebuild normally, right? I'm seeing failures of xcbuild not understanding some of the .xcodeproj setup in swift projects and segfaulting - so we'd still have to fix that part of xcbuild? Or did you mean some clever workaround for this that already exists?09:34:58
@viraptor:tchncs.deviraptor No worries, I'll add the svg support 09:38:56
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzswift-build is basically an official open source reimplementation of xcodebuild if I understood correctly09:48:03
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzas opposed to the inofficial reimplementation of xcbuild that facebook has abandoned years ago09:48:14
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorz* as opposed to the inofficial reimplementation that is xcbuild, which facebook has abandoned years ago09:48:38
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzthe swift-build README states it's used in Xcode which answers your first question I guess09:56:39
@viraptor:tchncs.deviraptorOk, it does indeed do the things, I was looking in the wrong repo - it's effectively a plugin.10:51:20
@viraptor:tchncs.deviraptoractool is updated now, feel free to test. I'll get it in nixpkgs later10:52:06
@viraptor:tchncs.deviraptor Digging deeper - turns out it's not https://github.com/swiftlang/swift-build/blob/df624d19606034a214393ecab6baac937518746e/Plugins/run-xcodebuild/run-xcodebuild.swift#L45 it just calls out to xcodebuild through xcrun, so it still depends on Xcode 11:50:25
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzindeed, looks like xcodebuild does the project parsing and then forwards the information to swift-build in the PIF format described here: https://github.com/swiftlang/swift-build/blob/main/SwiftBuild.docc/Core/project-interchange-format.md12:06:59
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrode I have used swbuild in a derivation to (try to) build an Xcode protect. 12:22:08
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrode

https://github.com/swiftlang/swift-build/issues/43

That plugin appears to be for running xcodebuild with (your built) Swift Build service.

@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeIt failed due to missing yet another proprietary tool.12:25:56
@viraptor:tchncs.deviraptorThank you very much. The docs for that project are quite poor - I'm really happy you found more details already!12:30:20
@viraptor:tchncs.deviraptorHmmm... It's just processing a plistxml to generate some scaffolded interfaces. "How hard could that be" feeling is growing...12:38:37

@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeI can’t make progress on the ICU issue until I resolve the issue with linking the 26.4 SDK using ld64.13:32:22
@ankarhem:matrix.internetfeno.menankarhemDo you know if there’s some workaround we can do locally for dotnet until it’s properly fixed?13:43:33
