@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw So we require a toml11 version that is not in nixpkgs yet? https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/commit/4de09b6b5493db4bd7f6348255a1fdcb38b9ed2f 08:27:24
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyit is not in Nixpkgs precisely because of Nix/Lix and nothing else16:47:52
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilybut also those commits didn't get backported to stable versions yet16:48:35
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilybecause I opened cherry-picks and then the build broke and I ran out of energy to fix it16:48:44
@emilazy:matrix.orgemily(most of the code that commit makes unconditional is removed immediately after with the busted experimental feature anyway…)16:50:13
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw Yeah I noticed as much, see https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/434186#issuecomment-3216812062 for some more context. 17:12:51
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyI think if someone handles the backports for the backportable part of the stack then the deadlock will be broken.17:49:14
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyit was only reverted on the Nix end because of the cursed Nixpkgs behaviour but I got that fixed in Nixpkgs17:49:26
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyand then we can just cherry-pick stuff17:49:33
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyI just got demotivated after firing off a bunch of cherry-picks and seeing the builds fail17:49:51
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoiswOn 2.91 this seems to be recursive lambda not being supported due to it not being C++23 yet. But yeah the Clang ICE on 2.92 does not look fun.17:59:14
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoiswActually it fails on Darwin as well due to recursive lambda so maybe it's the same.18:01:27
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoiswThat still doesn't explain why it fails properly on Darwin and ICEs on Linux though.18:02:01
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw
nix-repl> (import ./. { system = "x86_64-linux"; }).clangStdenv.cc.version        
"18.1.8"

nix-repl> (import ./. { system = "aarch64-darwin"; }).clangStdenv.cc.version
"16.0.6"

That might do it I guess?

18:04:16
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyuh, how old is that Nixpkgs pin?18:24:41
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilywe switched to LLVM 19 on all platforms in 25.0518:24:49
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyI guess CI is just running against EOL Nixpkgs releases?18:25:08
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw2.91 and 2.92 are on 24.11.18:37:00
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoiswWhich is also what was evaluated in the pasted nix-repl output.18:37:35
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoiswSo either nixpkgs needs to be bumped in these old branches, the recursive lambda removed, or polyfilled with y combinator.18:38:26
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyI don't see why not bump Nixpkgs19:05:51
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilythat also means that people using the NixOS module are getting a Lix built from EOL Nixpkgs…?19:06:05
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyok, no, because the NixOS module uses a different Nixpkgs19:06:44
