 Randy Eckenrode | Darwin bootstrap doesn’t use minimal Python because some things expect a more fully featured Python. | 21:34:48 |
| Randy Eckenrode | If we can disable only zstd during the bootstrap, that should be fine. | 21:35:54 |

| Randy Eckenrode | This fixes eval for me. I’m building the stdenv now to confirm it still bootstraps.

| hexa | that's killing fseventsd hourly and I like it | 02:05:52 |
| hexa | from the 14th fwiw | 02:06:02 |
| hexa | no run-away swapping anymore | 02:06:16 |
| hexa | Randy Eckenrode are you pushing a commit or should I take that patch? | 02:19:16 |
| hexa | pushing to python-updates would be fine fwiw | 02:20:18 |
| Randy Eckenrode | I just finished bootstrapping, building (non-bootstrap) Python 3.14, and confirming that it works. | 04:07:31 |
| Randy Eckenrode | Give me a moment, and I can push to python-updates | 04:07:40 |
| Randy Eckenrode | I pushed the fix. | 04:15:52 |

| @not-jack:matrix.org | anybody know if macfuse-stubs and fuse3 are similar enough to allow:
fuse3 = lowPrio (
if stdenv.hostPlatform.isDarwin then macfuse-stubs.override { isFuse3 = true; } else fuse
);

 toonn | I'm sure it'll get looked at, darwin-core bandwidth is just very limited. | 09:09:41 |
| viraptor | Thanks, it was genuinely "who deals with base things like that". I'm happy to just wait for the group notification to do its thing. | 09:13:36 |
 Austin Horstman | Something planned out beforehand? Seems a little weird to migrate from an official repo to a new fork of your own with a handful of claude commits on a single day of dev with no real usage by anyone for a stdenv package. | 13:19:07 |
