@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeAre you able to see in Console.app which process crashed?13:09:39
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeIt’s also possible the problem is its trying to download the SwiftPM dependencies, which will fail because network access is disallowed during a build.13:09:46
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeIIRC someone else ran into that problem.13:10:06
@winston:winston.shwinston is man-db known to be a flaky build or is this an issue on staging/my machine? On my 4th build now and encountering a different checkPhase fail for the 3rd time 14:41:30
@winston:winston.shwinston what's odd is that I get a full For full logs run nix log ... but it never leaves the checkPhase either 14:42:10
@winston:winston.shwinston ~~what's odd is that I get a full For full logs run nix log ... but it never leaves the checkPhase either~~ nvm that was just nixpkgs-review passing in --keep-going 15:32:08
@winston:winston.shwinstonended up just using an overlay to turn the checkPhase off to get the dep to build15:32:33
@weethet:catgirl.cloudWeetHet

Would using osascript instead of rm fix the issue with macl what do you think?

osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to delete file "Macintosh HD:Users:weethet:Downloads:example.txt"'
16:04:32
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeWhat’s the macl issue?19:48:28
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeIs that the problem with xattrs in the store?19:48:46

@carlossless:matrix.orgcarlosslessseems like xcbuild itself?19:57:11
@carlossless:matrix.orgcarlosslesscan't find anything else relevant19:58:51
@weethet:catgirl.cloudWeetHetYeah21:22:36
@weethet:catgirl.cloudWeetHetIt seems to occur even when doing sudo nix-collect-garbage for me 21:22:57

@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaur is this the same issue as the __sincos thing we were seeing on darwin? 05:59:25
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaur

relevant lines of the error appear to be:

       > src/time.c:731:3: error: unknown type name '__sighandler_t'; did you mean 'sighandler_t'?
       >   731 |   __sighandler_t interrupt_signal, quit_signal;
       >       |   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
       >       |   sighandler_t
05:59:55
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrode __sincos was Meson’s bad has_function logic. This is autotools. Probably something different. 10:37:39
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_how do you deal with stuff trying to build simple swift libs? we found that sentry-cli is broken on macOS due to them shipping some cursed build.rs crimes. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/448301/files17:46:38
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeFWIW, Swift 5.10.1 should be on master now.17:47:58
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_that's helpful info; is there a way to build swift without using the xcode package?17:50:02
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrode xcbuild can build some Swift projects, but there’s no good support for dealing with dependencies (because of not having network access). 17:51:10
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurI looked at sentry-cli, it's some incredibly cursed build system17:51:20
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_would we be able to tell them it sucks upstream? should we ship binaries and tell them their build system is bad?17:51:48
