 emily | apparently FEX's WINE DLLs that they ship are literally built using Nix ^^ | 16:06:14 |
 Randy Eckenrode | If CrossOver needs frameworks that aren’t supported under future Rosetta 2, it wouldn’t work. Apple could also limit it to signed games with known team ids. | 16:30:08 |
| Randy Eckenrode | We don’t know because Apple isn’t saying anything about how they will limit it. | 16:30:40 |
 validitymaiden | Is it ok for nix-darwin to follow nixos-unstable or does it have to follow some variant of *-darwin? | 19:10:25 |
 samasaur | In reply to @validitymaiden:matrix.org
Is it ok for nix-darwin to follow nixos-unstable or does it have to follow some variant of *-darwin? It will work but the channel blockers are different and you will probably have a better time following a non-nixos-specific channel | 19:15:37 |
| samasaur | For unstable, the corresponding channel is nixpkgs-unstable | 19:16:07 |
| validitymaiden | I've been using nixpkgs-unstable for nix-darwin, but I'm now trying to add my this to a monolithic flake for all my systems and I'm not sure how to handle the inputs. For example: nixos on a few platforms with home-manager and nixos-wsl which follow nixos-unstable and nix-darwin on macos, also with home-manager, following nixpkgs-unstable. | 19:43:26 |
| validitymaiden | I suppose I'd have to have a bunch of different inputs and the downstream modules would need to use the one appropriate for which channel to follow. | 19:45:01 |
| samasaur | yes :( | 19:48:04 |
| validitymaiden | Well, no worse than the 2 overlays I have, I guess 😅 | 19:48:33 |
| samasaur | yeah it is ugly but in practice you can ignore it most of the time | 19:49:57 |
| validitymaiden | Yeah, I'll get there. Been making good progress with it and so far I'm very impressed tbh. Hopefully I can get proficient enough to start contributing soon. | 19:54:05 |
 Sarah Clark | I'm reviewing https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/486412/ to see if it builds on Darwn. It fails in the frontend build when fetchPnpmDeps returns a different hash on Darwin vs. linux. Any ideas for resolving this? | 20:12:35 |
 Sandro 🐧 | it should definitely use fetcherVersion 3 | 20:21:53 |
| Sarah Clark | Thank you. Testing that so I can suggest the change in a review | 20:22:32 |
| Sandro 🐧 | I think 2 fixed a general darwin issue which works for most packages but we should definitely straight jump to 3 | 20:22:55 |
| Sarah Clark | Definitely. Confirmed that 3 fixes the issue, will drop a suggested change on the PR | 20:26:37 |
| Sarah Clark | Thanks for your help | 20:27:50 |
| Sarah Clark | That one's ready for merge. | 20:48:03 |

 eveeifyeve | I have a feeling this can be fixed from nix and upstream, so I am posting it here: https://github.com/withastro/astro/issues/13083#issuecomment-3933250227 | 11:37:22 |
 Matthew Hiles | this doesn't seem to be mac specific, why post it here? | 13:13:59 |
| xored | Is actool on apple-sdk? element-desktop is failing to build because of it but I’m not sure if it’s something on my end | 20:36:26 |
| Randy Eckenrode | It probably requires Xcode. | 20:37:27 |
| xored | shoudn't matter what I have on the host, isn't build sandboxed? regardless, I do have xcode ```❯ actool --version
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
