samasaur | oh also Randy Eckenrode do you know if there's anything weird you have to do to get llvm-symbolizer to work? I tried setting LLVM_SYMBOLIZER_PATH to lib.getExe' libllvm "llvm-symbolizer" but that didn't seem to get picked up | 07:08:58 |
Randy Eckenrode | In the swift-frontend stack traces? I don’t think I’ve ever gotten it working. | 10:49:14 |
Randy Eckenrode | Admittedly, I don’t think I tried more than setting the path in the terminal. | 10:49:58 |
Ihar Hrachyshka | samasaur: in my experience bare automated bisects that don't consider WHY a failure happens are not very reliable in nixpkgs. it fail in "bison" or "sqlite" or whatever and assume that it's a sign of swift being broken. | 14:50:58 |

Ihar Hrachyshka | (writing a script that captures the cause may or may not be easy; if too hard or just lazy, I suspect a AI agent could be instructed to run the bisect loop for you... never tried it myself before though) | 14:55:38 |
Austin Horstman | everytime swift breaks it feels catastrophic to my setup lol | 14:59:55 |
Austin Horstman | mixed with firefox not building / caching my macbook is in a weird state lol | 15:00:50 |
Ihar Hrachyshka | sorry for the latter. fwiw one can take firefox and thunderbird from release branches, they are the same version most of the time. | 15:01:38 |
Austin Horstman | is it same version just without lto? | 15:01:57 |
Ihar Hrachyshka | yeah, lto was not backported. | 15:02:07 |
Austin Horstman | ah, good to know | 15:02:12 |
Austin Horstman | thanks | 15:02:15 |
Ihar Hrachyshka | did it get better btw? we merged the hydra bump. | 15:02:21 |
Austin Horstman | i hadn't seen hydra using the new timeout yet ( i haven't checked in a couple days) | 15:02:40 |
Austin Horstman | my local builds stopped completing and just hang after a certain part of the build | 15:02:56 |
Austin Horstman | https://hydra.nixos.org/build/320487707 | 15:03:34 |
Ihar Hrachyshka | there was thunderbird build with the new timeout I think | 15:05:23 |
Ihar Hrachyshka | https://hydra.nixos.org/build/320117237 | 15:05:45 |
Ihar Hrachyshka | not sure why it says 0s duration though, haven't dug deeper | 15:05:56 |
Austin Horstman | yeah, just saw the 0s and got super confused lol | 15:06:21 |
Ihar Hrachyshka | the log also seems interrupted? | 15:06:49 |
Austin Horstman | https://hydra.nixos.org/build/319577871/nixlog/2 shows the full log i think? | 15:07:03 |
Austin Horstman | maybe not. i don't see stripping stuff | 15:07:19 |
Ihar Hrachyshka | but I can nix build --file . thunderbird from the tip and it gives me what looks like an .app :) | 15:07:48 |
Ihar Hrachyshka | the last firefox build is also 0s and "Cancelled by user" | 15:08:45 |
Austin Horstman | also seem to have a failing test in lix package
79/167 lix:installcheck / functional-nix-shell-basic FAIL 3.53s exit status 1

xored | any workarounds for the swift issue so far? | 18:18:10 |
Ihar Hrachyshka | pinning to older nixpkgs always works | 18:18:28 |
xored | doesn't work on my devshell for some reason | 18:18:50 |
