 emily | I think it'll be educational if nothing else | 13:04:49 |
| emily | (and I personally think trimming such does is worthwhile because it lowers the things we get pinged for to check after it turns out they rebuild the bootstrap) | 13:05:23 |
| emily | (but ofc if Swift is going to pull in lots of stuff in a more non-negotiable way - maybe the effort just gets undone soon) | 13:05:51 |
 Randy Eckenrode | Swift pulls in Rust because Swift Build is using oxipng for https://github.com/reckenrode/nixpkgs/blob/swift-update-mk2/pkgs/by-name/sw/swiftPackages/by-name/sw/swift-build/extra-bins/copypng | 13:44:59 |
| Randy Eckenrode | We can use something else that doesn’t pull Rust. Just need the flags. | 13:45:26 |
| emily | or we can just make it not use compression during bootstrap? | 13:46:53 |
| emily | or just never do compression? | 13:46:59 |
| emily | oxipng is kinda slow and I don't think resource PNGs are going to be a substantial contributor to Nix disk use | 13:47:24 |
| Randy Eckenrode | But for the code signing actions, we may need rcodesign, so it may not be worth the effort. | 13:47:50 |
| emily | I'd rather use oxipng over any alternative, but certainly I doubt we use it for bootstrap | 13:48:03 |
| emily | true | 13:48:08 |
| emily | though we were very close to not needing rcodesign or sigtool in bootstrap at all | 13:48:28 |
| emily | is it totally mandatory to have it for Swift Build? | 13:48:37 |
| Randy Eckenrode | We could get it from the environment. If it’s not present, error with an appropriate message. | 13:53:35 |
| Randy Eckenrode | Either do it via a stub and have a graphics_cmds package or do it in the scripts. | 13:54:25 |
| Randy Eckenrode | Same for code signing. | 13:54:34 |
| Randy Eckenrode | Maybe the same for anything not in the stdenv. | 13:55:38 |

| Randy Eckenrode | Right now though the goal is to get to the point where the packaging is complete, then it can be refined. | 13:56:09 |

| Randy Eckenrode | Oh, I see. I dropped the lib output from swiftc but forgot to replace placeholder "lib" with placeholder "out". Whoops. | 01:13:17 |
