@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeI was adding all the keys I saw it reference in its source code. If this warning is actually a problem, we can fix it in xcbuild, but I don’t think it will help with the MacVim build.21:23:15
@esperlily:matrix.orgEsperLily [she/her]no it doesn't sounds like the cause of the MacVim build issue, i'm going to have to spend more time tracking that down21:23:54
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeAnd if users are complaining, it can also be patched.21:25:39

@ihar.hrachyshka:matrix.orgIhar Hrachyshkafirefox issue is... fun. arm build crashes, x86 (through rosetta) doesn't. some asm fun: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/453372#issuecomment-344498183221:53:46

@mio:chat.mio19.ukmio joined the room.02:16:32
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurqt time again 🫠03:33:00
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurAH HA03:42:48
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurso there are a couple of frameworks that CMake can't find03:43:20
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurAssetsLibrary, MobileCoreServices, UIKit, WatchKit, Network03:43:58
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaur the first four actually are missing 03:44:33
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaur Network.framework actually is in the SDK directory alongside all the other frameworks that it does find 03:45:01
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaur what gives? turns out it's not actually failing the NOTFOUND part of the check, it's failing the MATCHES ".framework$" part 03:45:55
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaur

because (unique among all the frameworks that it "can't find"), when calling find_library(FWNetworkInternal Network), it actually does find something:

/nix/store/9idkk50xhm91i33fzsgg520z5pa8i8dv-apple-sdk-15.5/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX15.5.sdk/usr/lib/libnetwork.tbd

@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurhttps://github.com/qt/qtbase/commit/b181132f742a0d212f8ffaf6f8fb48a099ac45dd03:50:33
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaur ...except that we don't set QT_USE_VCPKG 03:56:00
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurlike that is the actual issue, but I can't apply that patch directly03:56:26
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurwell it appears to be building04:00:38
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurissue might be coming from https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/01f116e4df6a15f4ccdffb1bcd41096869fb385c/pkgs/by-name/cm/cmake/setup-hook.sh#L42-L44 ? though it looks like it hasn't been touched for years, so I'm not sure why we'd suddenly be seeing this issue05:07:13
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurmaybe the first time Network.framework is actually used by qt?05:07:25
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurregardless I think this patch fixes it. if my build ever completes we will know for sure05:08:56
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasauryay okay it works05:16:13
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurhttps://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/45545805:43:51
@k900:0upti.meK900I kinda like the not-patch route07:07:08
@k900:0upti.meK900 But maybe @emily or @Randy Eckenrode have opinions 07:07:21
@k900:0upti.meK900I don't even know if it makes any sense to set that globally07:08:34
@k900:0upti.meK900My intuition says "this is probably some sort of attempted purity hack"07:08:48
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaur i was in a patch-based mindset because i found the upstream commit first and wanted to fetchpatch it, but since it doesn't work as-is I don't really care 07:09:17
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurmy concern with setting it globally would be that some other part of qtbase needs the "prefer library over framework" behavior but evidently that seems not to be the case07:10:02
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaur

FWIW the cmakeFlags approach is quite literally just:
