@ihar.hrachyshka:matrix.orgIhar Hrachyshkahm. I have some dyld sigsegvs in Console.app. maybe related to failed swift runs with the crash. was it dyld crashing?22:49:10
@ihar.hrachyshka:matrix.orgIhar Hrachyshkanah it was swift-frontend (I also have some of these)22:52:43
@ihar.hrachyshka:matrix.orgIhar Hrachyshka

btw on a different machine...

swift> Running phase: unpackPhase
swift> unpackPhase completed in 30 seconds
22:54:50
@ihar.hrachyshka:matrix.orgIhar Hrachyshkaso no, this is not normal that it takes 30 mins. Maybe it's COMMON that folks struggle over slow APFS nix store, but it's not the only way it can be22:55:54
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurOH i misread those times22:56:54
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasauryeah that is way longer than i would expect22:57:05

@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrode There’s some progress in the issue. If that works, then along with the patch to fix libstdc++ support, I have a patch to fix -cxx-isystem support. 03:52:42

@debtquity:matrix.orgdebtquity

is lib.file.mkOutOfStoreSymlink broken for anybody else?

I was using it in with home.file.source to symlink to a sops-nix secret. But seems all of the files are non-existent now.

@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeveKnown issue: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/1167610:38:24
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeve* That is a known issue.10:39:08
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeve* That is a known issue, no fix unfortantly.10:39:16
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeveAlso what is the solution for multiple installations on nix-darwin where it installs a separate nix.10:45:36

Because at the moment I have one that is really old that I want to remove.

[FAIL] Multiple versions of nix found in PATH:
  "/nix/store/6dw415pr1q4h1lywp3y0z6zij7h9wrsf-nix-2.31.2/bin"

Because at the moment I have one that is really old that I want to remove, which is used by default.

@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeveNvm this is a quick and really easy fix.10:58:48
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrode My branch uses staging as a base, so it (almost always) does a full bootstrap from source. 11:35:26
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrode sudo -i nix-env -e nix IIRC. 11:36:26
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeUsually the Nix from the installer is left in root’s profile, but you don’t need it if your Nix is managed by nix-darwin.11:37:06
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeveYeah so I removed it..11:37:23
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeveNix-darwin should create a first install script that uninstalls the one from the installer.11:38:16
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeveWe ❤️ llvm taking the longest to build in staging....11:46:02
