@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson ah OK putting that old convo together with the blog :) 22:27:34
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson we are very lucky that exists! 22:29:16
@artemis:arty.chatartemiso/23:19:45
@artemis:arty.chatartemis Admittedly I don't really use nix for anything now except installing software on my steam deck so I don't really have motivation to help with the illumos efforts myself 23:20:22
@artemis:arty.chatartemis Or s/motivation/mental context/ if you like, nix stuff takes awhile for me to get back into since I don't do it much 23:24:50
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson artemis: all good, were you interested in cross compiling just for nix purposes, or also for another reason? 23:32:48
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson so far, I built dmake (rebasing that somake port) and cw 23:33:23
@artemis:arty.chatartemis

It was a fun challenge and people said it wasn't possible so I wanted to do it. Ended up getting there with gentoo crossdev and then I was satisfied because I'd pulled it off

But cross comp didn't really seem to serve any practical purpose aside from the particular task of bootstrapping nix, and I couldn't figure out the nixpkgs internals enough to try

My interest in nix on illumos was mostly as an alternative to pkgsrc, in the role of auxiliary package repository

23:38:34
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson artemis: oh! so you got further than your blog post indicated? 23:39:08
@artemis:arty.chatartemis Yeah I have a half written post about what I got working but I never got it to the point of publishing it 23:39:44
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonooo!23:39:53
@artemis:arty.chatartemis I could share what I had though 23:39:59
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonyes that would be great23:40:08
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonif you have, e.g. like a "compat" library for building stuff on linux with non-illumos glibc (like the freebsd and netbsd compat libs)23:40:46
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonthat would be fantastic23:40:52
