sterni | in theory a similar situation with macOS and libSystem, but this means that even a native and pure stdenv for Open/FreeBSD can bitrot, so a bigger challenge to support | 21:01:56 |
sterni | so NetBSD would be a good way to get into the BSD territory and there was apparently some interest from the NetBSD side as well | 21:02:27 |
qbit | openbsd potentially every 6 months | 21:05:38 |
qbit | current port of openbsd's nix port: https://github.com/jasperla/openbsd-wip/tree/master/devel/nix | 21:05:39 |
ash (it/its) š³ļøāā§ļø | iirc there was (is?) some work on not only nix on netbsd, but nixos as well | 21:53:59 |
sterni | ash (it/its) š³ļøāā§ļø: yeah, netbsd cross works already | 23:05:10 |

Ed Langley | What Iād really like is a way to build a jail using nix to declare its contents | 00:09:04 |
Ed Langley | I think I can do this in FreeBSD 13 using Linux emulation. | 00:09:47 |
qbit | Sounds terrifying:D | 01:06:22 |

sterni | new solo5 build system has been released: https://github.com/Solo5/solo5/releases/tag/v0.7.0 | 13:52:28 |

sterni | arrrgh of course solo5 uses "wrong" terminology as well | 12:05:30 |

C compiler, linker and objcopy used for target toolchain and bindings.
Experimental: If a cross-toolchain is specified here, the resulting
target toolchain and bindings will be cross-compiled to its
architecture.
should get an award for being as confusing as possible

Zhaofeng Li | $150 for the board itself which has sold out, but the kit is still available at $175 | 20:57:19 |
[0x4A6F] | Applications to the Sponsoring Program are due by 2021-01-07 | 21:49:49 |

[0x4A6F] | Sponsoring maybe part of this initiative from RISC-V. | 10:20:32 |

Corbin | Is k8s an exotic target, or is there a channel for it? | 01:07:31 |
Corbin | I just want to read about alternatives to https://github.com/xtruder/kubenix | 01:08:03 |
Zhaofeng Li | In reply to @corbin:matrix.org Is k8s an exotic target, or is there a channel for it? I think the Cloud Native channel works better for this | 01:27:21 |
Zhaofeng Li | This channel is primarily for Nix on weird platforms, like FreeBSD | 01:28:07 |

Zhaofeng Li | Vanilla Firefox is buildable after a simple patch to authenticator-rs to add RISC-V support. I wasn't able to build node.js natively (stuck on node_mksnapshot) which is used in the build process, so I cheated a little bit by using the X86 version of node.js. | 05:23:22 |
Zhaofeng Li | (also I just realized that I accidentally dropped the original patches inside the derivation, which is why I was able to go to config:buildconfig which is patched out by us) | 05:23:36 |
