| Ed Langley | Has any work been done to target FreeBSD? | 20:26:30 |
 Corbin | Yes, although I'm not sure about the current status of things. | 20:28:33 |
 sterni | Ed Langley: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/82131 | 20:29:49 |
| sterni | FreeBSD stdenv is still in disrepair | 20:30:33 |
| Ed Langley | Interesting, It'd be cool to have a third reasonable platform for nix (after darwin/linux) | 20:34:10 |
 7c6f434c | You could even say second | 20:34:38 |
| 7c6f434c | I think NetBSD support might be in a more useful shape than FreeBSD right now | 20:35:02 |
| *  qbit has been tossing around the idea of throwing monies at getting openbsd support | 20:38:36 |
| qbit | i have taken a crack at it myself a few times - but my time is now mostly spent with newborn child \o/ | 20:41:42 |
| Corbin | https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/blob/master/rfcs/0046-platform-support-tiers.md might be useful for perspective. Adding BSD support has a "clear path", at least. | 20:41:51 |
| 7c6f434c | Nix on FreeBSD has history of having been a Hydra platform, and I think FreeBSD ports have patches for getting somewhat useful Nix built… | 20:42:47 |
| sterni | Nix can be built on NetBSD right now, there were patches for Nix 2.3 on OpenBSD | 20:57:23 |
| sterni | I think a realistic aim would be to get the first BSD in NetBSD with a native and pure stdenv of the ground 2022/2023 | 20:58:09 |
| sterni | NetBSD is easier because we have good cross support already (cross compiling bootstrap tools would be the idea) and because the NetBSD project values ABI compat, so it'll be less problematic / maintenance intensive | 20:59:27 |
 Ryan Burns | I had a terrible time trying to autoconf Nix on solaris a while back, is the situation on BSD a bit better for building from source? | 20:59:39 |
| sterni | I think patches may still be required, but things have improved a bit | 21:00:09 |
| sterni | OpenBSD / FreeBSD break ABI compat regularly / on occasion | 21:01:16 |
