| rhelmot | Hi! I'm trying to revive the FreeBSD nix/nixpkgs support. I've gotten as far as being able to compile moderately interesting packages with the bootstrap compiler (FreeBSD-native clang), but when I try to build gcc everything falls apart and I think it's me doing something wrong with the stdenv. Is this the right place to ask for help with that? | 05:55:34 |
| 👉@crystallinefire:chat.solarpunk.moe | oooh i want to help with that | 05:55:59 |
| 👉@crystallinefire:chat.solarpunk.moe | this seems like the right place to me | 05:56:07 |
| rhelmot | nice! Okay, I'll make what I have presentable and I can show it to you. | 05:56:31 |
| rhelmot | https://github.com/rhelmot/nixpkgs/compare/freebsd%7E%7E...rhelmot:nixpkgs:freebsd | 06:11:11 |
| rhelmot | The first commit is where I got as far as I could with the native compiler. the second commit is where I attempted to do the full bootstrap | 06:11:27 |
| rhelmot | if you're trying to run this yourself you'll need my patches for nix itself | 06:12:05 |
| 👉@crystallinefire:chat.solarpunk.moe | by the native compiler, do you mean like, compiling things natively in bsd, as in, not using the linux emulation layer ? | 06:12:08 |
| rhelmot | I have never installed the linux emulation layer | 06:12:25 |
| rhelmot | by native I mean "links against the system libraries" | 06:12:34 |
| 👉@crystallinefire:chat.solarpunk.moe | i thought it was part of freebsd by default | 06:12:38 |
| rhelmot | * by native I mean "links against the system libc" | 06:12:38 |
| 👉@crystallinefire:chat.solarpunk.moe | * i thought it was part of freebsd by default, whoops | 06:13:01 |
| rhelmot | it might be! but I'm doing freebsd mostly as a hobby so I might as well commit to the ecosystem | 06:14:06 |
| 👉@crystallinefire:chat.solarpunk.moe | ah ok | 06:14:11 |
| rhelmot | it's been a few months since I touched this so I will need to do a fat rebase. I had been debugging one-on-one with a friend who is a nixos contributor but I think she deserves better than to be the sole recipient of my nonsense | 06:16:53 |
| rhelmot | when compiling this on either of those commits I am getting a weird error with coreutils that I don't remember getting before so I think something changed in freebsd's version of llvm since I tried last | 06:17:34 |
| rhelmot | (I am on FreeBSD-14-CURRENT) | 06:17:40 |
| 👉@crystallinefire:chat.solarpunk.moe | so anyways, as it stands now, there's no way i can test this until you've rebased and published the patches for nix ? | 06:18:59 |
| 👉@crystallinefire:chat.solarpunk.moe | aiui | 06:19:06 |
| rhelmot | oh! those are here: https://github.com/rhelmot/nix | 06:19:40 |
| 👉@crystallinefire:chat.solarpunk.moe | oh excellent | 06:19:52 |
