Grimmauld (any/all) |  Download image.png | 15:34:00 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | musl x86_64 nixos, with a graphical interactive system, no SUID wrappers.
I think this qualifies as "exotic" | 15:34:21 |
zimward | in an ideal world it shouldn't be, but here we are | 15:34:49 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | https://git.grimmauld.de/Grimmauld/grimm-musl | 15:35:32 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | the amount of hacks i am doing to keep this manageable (as in, compiles over night on my laptop and actually works) is baffling | 15:35:59 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | oh, its also mostly xorg-less | 15:36:04 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | perlless of course | 15:36:17 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | systemd-initrd, networkd, dbus-broker, all the good stuff | 15:36:49 |
Marie | thats pretty cool | 16:14:02 |
Alex | In reply to @grimmauld:grapevine.grimmauld.de the amount of hacks i am doing to keep this manageable (as in, compiles over night on my laptop and actually works) is baffling It gets even worse when you try full static linking: replacing systemd, fixing all the random broken packages, rebuilding initramfs, etc.
Would not recommend. | 17:32:28 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | oh static is broken on here | 17:32:55 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | thats part of the reason why i can't do suid | 17:33:04 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | it was easier to do nosuid instead of fixing static XD | 17:33:17 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | okay maybe someone who actually knows libc and compilers could figure it out, but i am a pam/systemd maintainer so that is the place where i felt i'd get the least resistance | 17:34:04 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | i can't reasonably ping emilazy and dram for any little compiler issue | 17:34:44 |
emily | would be cool to see pwaccess upstreamed | 21:09:56 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/453557 | 21:10:41 |
emily | wow you wrote that fast after I asked | 21:11:31 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | I am not 100% confident in that musl patch, its cobbled together from mailing list, musl sources and hacks. And that pam_unixModulePath option isn't super nice either. But there is a draft, and feel free to comment if you do have opinions | 21:11:55 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | i even invented time travel for you! | 21:12:11 |
emily | those patches should definitely go upstream if possible | 21:12:32 |
