Sarah Clark | Ohhhhh...wait, postFetch goes inside fetchFromGitHub | 19:17:33 |
samasaur | ah yeah that'd do it | 19:17:51 |
Sarah Clark | And it did | 19:19:13 |
Sarah Clark | Thank you so much | 19:19:40 |
samasaur | happy to help :) | 19:20:22 |
Randy Eckenrode | Are sqlite tests expected to work on Darwin? | 20:25:23 |
emily | I 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 |
emily | https://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/nixpkgs/staging | 20:26:21 |
emily | looks like it indeed broke staging. | 20:26:26 |
Randy Eckenrode | ./testfixture: error writing "stdout": invalid argument
| 20:26:40 |
emily | perhaps a revert in order. | 20:26:45 |
Randy Eckenrode | I wonder if it’s doing one of those things that only works on Linux. | 20:27:14 |
Randy Eckenrode | We ran into it with something else last year. | 20:27:34 |

Randy Eckenrode | https://bugs.gentoo.org/950943 | 00:23:02 |
Randy Eckenrode | I tried to reproduce the failure interactively, but I failed. The Gentoo bug report suggests it doesn’t happen every time. | 00:48:23 |
Randy Eckenrode | Those are always fun to debug. | 00:48:32 |
Randy Eckenrode | I kept restarting the build. It eventually built. 🤪 | 01:11:51 |
| Jeanre Swanepoel joined the room. | 07:22:07 |
Jeanre Swanepoel | morning all, I am redoing my nix config, but I am thinking about system packages vs home-manager packages | 07:22:35 |

Randy Eckenrode | Maybe need to use sudo not to use the daemon? 😬 | 17:24:35 |
Randy Eckenrode | Moving 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 |
Randy Eckenrode | I’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 |
Katalin 🔪 | what's the libstdc++ breakage? | 20:11:31 |
samasaur | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/468796 | 20:12:40 |
Katalin 🔪 | ah, this is 5.10 | 20:13:40 |
Katalin 🔪 | could always build it with its libc++ or against compatible mainline libc++ :^) | 20:14:44 |
samasaur | yeah | 20:14:45 |
samasaur | * yeah (to 5.10) | 20:15:27 |
