@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurah yeah that'd do it19:17:51
@sarahec:matrix.orgSarah ClarkAnd it did19:19:13
@sarahec:matrix.orgSarah ClarkThank you so much19:19:40
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurhappy to help :)19:20:22
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeAre sqlite tests expected to work on Darwin?20:25:23
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyI doubt it was tested. I mentioned we should think about maybe getting SQLite out of the Darwin bootstrap closure and pinged darwin-core and then the PR got merged.20:26:10
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyhttps://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/nixpkgs/staging20:26:21
@emilazy:matrix.orgemily looks like it indeed broke staging. 20:26:26
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrode
./testfixture: error writing "stdout": invalid argument
20:26:40
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyperhaps a revert in order.20:26:45
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeI wonder if it’s doing one of those things that only works on Linux.20:27:14
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeWe ran into it with something else last year.20:27:34

@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrodehttps://bugs.gentoo.org/95094300:23:02
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeI tried to reproduce the failure interactively, but I failed. The Gentoo bug report suggests it doesn’t happen every time.00:48:23
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeThose are always fun to debug.00:48:32
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeI kept restarting the build. It eventually built. 🤪01:11:51
@jeanreswanepoel:matrix.orgJeanre Swanepoel joined the room.07:22:07
@jeanreswanepoel:matrix.orgJeanre Swanepoelmorning all, I am redoing my nix config, but I am thinking about system packages vs home-manager packages07:22:35

@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrode Maybe need to use sudo not to use the daemon? 😬 17:24:35
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeMoving the Swift discussion back to here. It’s not clear why the cc-wrapper changes would be an issue on Linux but not Darwin. Is it something to do with how Swift is vendoring its own custom copy?20:10:09
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeI’m not exactly sure what to do about the libstdc++ breakage though. That’s going to block any work on Linux support even if I don’t use GCC to build Swift on Linux.20:10:58
@saiko:knifepoint.netKatalin 🔪 what's the libstdc++ breakage? 20:11:31
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurhttps://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/46879620:12:40
@saiko:knifepoint.netKatalin 🔪 ah, this is 5.10 20:13:40
@saiko:knifepoint.netKatalin 🔪 could always build it with its libc++ or against compatible mainline libc++ :^) 20:14:44
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasauryeah20:14:45
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaur* yeah (to 5.10)20:15:27
