@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrode My branch is a bit behind. I can push an update once I have confirmed the dbus and sqlite issues. 08:26:27
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeveDo you want me to look into that?08:26:46
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeve* Do you want me to look into that? I am happy to.08:26:53
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeWhat I need primarily is testing (e.g., the repl), building stuff, and investigating prebuilts.08:27:17
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeveYeah I am happy to look into it. 08:27:55
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeMost likely I will try to do something less hacky/magic with source builds. I’m not thrilled about it, but I don’t want to spend a lot of time on it.08:28:02
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeOnce I’m back up and running, I’ll be adding a patch to make Swift find the stdlib. SDKs are specific to SwiftPM. They won’t do what we need, unfortunately.08:29:04
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeve* Yeah I am happy to look into it. Long as you push your changes as a wip.08:29:13
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeI don’t see any recent meeting notes posted. The last Nix team meeting notes are from last year.08:31:19
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeveNo there is no recent meeting notes, because we can't be bothered with writing notes.08:31:52
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeve* No there is no recent meeting notes, because we can't be bothered with writing notes. But we did have a discussion about it, so I am giving a summary about it.08:32:25
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrode procps is broken on Darwin too. I guess it’s a good thing I’m building all the things on staging. 😑 15:10:31

@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeLooks like some changes in LLD 22 might actually allow us to make it the default on Darwin.18:46:59
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn Exciting. 20:27:50
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeParticularly https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/20ca85b69fc06feb75f67414d54f3830748bb456 and https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/eb7386033ad7c51ec6de610f3266c58de6b25e8c. I ran into the problem those fix trying to bootstrap with LLD 16.21:12:57
