@winter:catgirl.cloudWinterassuming your nixpkgs is newer than May 01 (as a rough estimate), no05:04:16
@winter:catgirl.cloudWinteri’ll need to look at this when i have a moment05:04:39
@leona:leona.isleona you're using the github flake input for nixpkgs or channel.nixos.org? It doesn't work with channels.nixos.org because of the version string differing 06:38:44

@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeve Sorry the ref should be 8c3cede7ddc26bd659d2d383b5610efbd2c7a16e. 07:16:22
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeve Github nixpkgs I used to use channel.nixos.org instead. 07:16:46
@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeve I updated my flake because it seems a couple days old to 49a4bd0573c376468dd7996ddb6f9fa31d8c4d97 and see if that works. 07:17:47

@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeveNope that doesn't work still.08:14:25

@donn:fossi-chat.orgdonnAnyone have much experience with keeping the Nix store on an external SSD? I'm trying it but it appears that I need to give the nix-daemon full disk access every time I update because of disk sandbox permissions20:16:50
@donn:fossi-chat.orgdonn

Error in /var/log/nix-daemon.log is:

https://www.codeweavers.com/blog/mjohnson/2026/06/11/whats-in-and-whats-out-for-crossover-27

our ARM64 CrossOver build will run without Rosetta 2, allowing for a seamless transition for our users.

00:26:54
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeThe important question is when are they releasing the source to CrossOver 27, so we can see what patches they are applying to make ARM64 work on macOS. I assume it’s using those entitlements plus some other loader stuff.00:27:44
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrodehttps://discourse.nixos.org/t/x86-64-darwin-removal-and-wine/77532/600:37:27
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeGetting this to build on aarch64-darwin is not going to be fun. It appears Linux is using pre-built binaries for aarch64 support. We have an LLVM already. I wish we would just use that.00:43:39
@viraptor:tchncs.deviraptor

I'm not sure I understand what they're saying

and our ARM64 CrossOver build will run without Rosetta 2, allowing for a seamless transition for our users.
Does it mean they will still support running x86 apps, but using their own Rosetta-replacement tech?

02:36:33
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeMy interpretation is they’ll be using FEX on top of their Windows for ARM64 support like aarch64-linux does.02:43:21
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy Eckenrode For some reason, ffmpeg-headless fails to build because it can’t find gmp.h even though gmp is passed as an input. 15:25:14
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeWhy isn’t clang wrapped?15:26:47
@reckenrode:matrix.orgRandy EckenrodeOh, Cuda crap.15:28:45
