@k900:0upti.meK900io_uring is banned in the sandbox12:32:49
@k900:0upti.meK900Because it's currently not practical to actually sandbox effectively12:32:56
@ktrompfl:matrix.org@ktrompfl:matrix.orgOk, thank you!12:34:42
@sternenseemann:systemli.orgsternidoes anyone have a guess what is going on here? https://buildkite.com/afnix/lix/builds/1124#019d767e-d754-4569-852c-51bfa85ce70c14:02:50
@yuka:yuka.devYureka (she/her)I bisected it to the staging cycle which updated perl to 5.4214:03:32
@yuka:yuka.devYureka (she/her)and opened a topic in the darwin zulip: https://zulip.lix.systems/#narrow/channel/27-Darwin/topic/perl.20installCheckPhase.20fails.20after.20nixpkgs.20update/with/917014:03:54
@sternenseemann:systemli.orgsternity!14:08:21
@sternenseemann:systemli.orgsterniI think next lowdown bump I'm going to just wait with changing the flake until the desired version is default in the channel this is still such a battle with a million annoying little issues.14:09:38
@yuka:yuka.devYureka (she/her)can also bisect further into perl once I'm home ig, but it's not fun because the perl bump required a bunch of nixpkgs changes14:10:33
@yuka:yuka.devYureka (she/her)would be much nicer if someone knew the solution already ;)14:11:05
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium): you guys are also affected with the perl bindings right? 14:34:40

Haven’t seen the issues yet, probably I guess? I have -5% of a clue about Perl

@takentakentaken:matrix.orgDisplay NameMay I ask is there guide to lix?, I have done the obsession that I wanted to do, can I ask is iirc lix is package manager, does it have compilers as a package (or that not how it works), may I ask does it work on alphine linux (for my clunky container, single user rather than multi user) (or that not how its work)?16:20:22
@k900:0upti.meK900This is a lot of questions16:25:14
@k900:0upti.meK900 Lix is an implementation of Nix, which is kind of a weird meta-buildsystem/pacakge manager thing 16:25:32
@k900:0upti.meK900 Lix is an implementation of Nix, which is kind of a weird meta-buildsystem/package manager thing 16:25:36
@k900:0upti.meK900That kind of exists in its own class16:25:43
@k900:0upti.meK900Arguably the closest comparison would be tools like Bazel16:25:55
@takentakentaken:matrix.orgDisplay NameWhat bazel?16:26:09
@k900:0upti.meK900Google's meta-buildsystem16:26:21
@k900:0upti.meK900Anyway, most of the time when you're dealing with Nix (or Lix), you'll be using nixpkgs, which is a big monorepository of package definitions for all kinds of things16:26:50
@k900:0upti.meK900Which does include compilers16:26:56
@k900:0upti.meK900 Conceptually Nix (and Lix) can work on Alpine, but the official installer won't, as it's built for glibc, and Alpine uses musl 16:27:24
@k900:0upti.meK900And I don't think we have prebuilt musl binaries?16:27:40
@k900:0upti.meK900(unless we do and I missed it)16:27:44
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping) i think alpine has nix packaged 16:27:58
@takentakentaken:matrix.orgDisplay NameThanks, may I ask is guide on nix good enough for learning nix16:28:24
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping) so you can apk install nix 16:28:03
@k900:0upti.meK900What is "guide on nix"?16:28:31
@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping)hmm maybe not16:28:09
