@k900:0upti.meK900(or, more realistically, in one glibc upgrade)14:37:49
@k900:0upti.meK900Actually I'm pretty sure 25.11 on Fedora Rawhide will also blow up14:37:58
@k900:0upti.meK900Which is very much a Supported Version of NixOS14:38:07
@axel_w:matrix.orgaxwIs there a way to lock applications to a specific workspace declaratively? I find that after every update the prefrence is reset. So… is there a nix option?16:32:24
@axel_w:matrix.orgaxwI know that yabai and stuff exists, I try to rely on native features as much as possible though. I find that a combination of stage manager and workspaces with keyboard shortcuts and raycast works rather well16:34:02

@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeI linked this over in the Swift channel, but I'm also linking it here. Having to use platform libs for Swift then having the platform drop one of them is really annoying. I don’t know whether anyone was using it, but still.23:44:33

@viraptor:tchncs.deviraptor Hi @emilazy:matrix.org , your old request for changes is blocking the merge of https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/333546 - would you mind having a look? 21:08:14

@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrode Has anyone else run into crashes in libicucore.dylib on macOS 26.4? 00:49:31
@saiko:knifepoint.netKatalin 🔪What’s the Swift channel? 👀10:05:39

@saiko:knifepoint.netKatalin 🔪Nice, thank you!10:11:14
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeI’ll probably poke at Swift a little bit this weekend, but I want to work on separating the SDK from the source release sources. I’m going to move the required sources into the main source releases and update them to get their sources from the other packages. Maybe XNU can be made to build its headers again, which would eliminate a lot of the private header stuff, but that’s not a priority right now. The goal is day 1 SDK updates for Darwin in nixpkgs.11:41:37
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeSource release updates to 26.3 (or 26.4) will come at another time. I want to do them for 26.05, but they required a bunch of changes when I looked at them before.11:42:25
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeThe Swift update sucks, and Swift 6.3 appears to change the bootstrap story again, which sucks. It’s very likely the stage 0 bootstrap will be a binary bootstrap that is used to build the Swift compiler that builds the Swift compiler. I hate it, but I don’t think source-based bootstraps are sustainable (especially on Darwin) for Swift.11:47:25
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrode And now I’ve also got to figure out why dotnet is crashing on macOS 26.4 because I actually need that. 11:47:57

@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeSomething is pulling in the system ICU now. 😬13:02:48
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeFoundation links against libxml2, which links against libicucore. Anything that links system frameworks will crash using our darwin.ICU build. Great.13:28:36

@hexa:lossy.networkhexadoes nix-darwin support rebuild/switch over ssh?14:58:41
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa like for nixos I have nixos-rebuild --target-host root@example.com --flake .#example 14:59:05
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaRedacted or Malformed Event14:59:15
@ihar.hrachyshka:matrix.orgIhar Hrachyshkayes it definitely works, I do it all the time. what doesn't work is a launchd managed switch (if you use features like copyApps)15:29:00
@ihar.hrachyshka:matrix.orgIhar Hrachyshka *

yes it definitely works, I do it all the time. what doesn't work is a launchd managed switch (if you use features like copyApps)

I think I may have misunderstood what you asked. If you mean native rebuild tool support for --target-host, probably not. I am doing remote repo delivery and run switch from there.
