@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeThere is Darwin to Darwin cross support, but it comes with caveats.20:59:12

@colemickens:matrix.orgcolemickens πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆIs it possible to use HM to configure Ghostty on macOS even though it's not installable via nix/hm?22:58:03
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurYes22:59:57

What do you mean not installable?
23:07:43
@colemickens:matrix.orgcolemickens πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆI don't think it's available for aarch64-darwin23:08:12
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurghostty doesn't build on Darwin because it needs the real (unfree) xcodebuild and/or Swift 623:08:38
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaurI don't remember what the current blocker is off the top of my head23:09:05
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasaur*doesnt build via Nix23:09:12
@isolaryn:matrix.orgIsolarynThere is a ghostty-bin package for this occasion in nixpkgs23:09:15
@isolaryn:matrix.orgIsolaryn Unless from source is something you require 23:09:38
@samasaur:matrix.orgsamasauryeah. personally though when the option is a binary from nixpkgs or a binary direct from the project I just download direct from the project23:10:27

we have the llvm patch that broke firefox aarch64 bisected: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/129889

bad news is it's - probably? - not scoped to darwin and it's - probably? - affecting other apps. And it's - definitely - hard to say which are affected without running them.

wonder if it justifies a global CFLAGS edit to disable the optimization.
