 aktaboot | but I got a download error | 16:45:30 |
 Charles ⚡️ | https://or.computer.surgery/charles/nur/-/blob/main/flakes/conduit/flake.nix here's an example of a remote repo flake build I have that works | 16:45:50 |
| Charles ⚡️ | I'm seriously confused why what you have isn't working | 16:46:16 |
| aktaboot | 
Download clipboard.png | 16:46:36 |
| Charles ⚡️ | Hmm what if you try that request manually | 16:47:13 |
| aktaboot | I think with toolchain = fenix.packages.${system}.stable.toolchain; it should work but I got this unfortunate | 16:47:17 |
| aktaboot | yeah the request works | 16:47:44 |
| Charles ⚡️ | Bizarre | 16:47:52 |
| aktaboot | seems to be going through a proxy ?? | 16:47:55 |
| aktaboot | maybe just bad connectoin | 16:50:05 |
| aktaboot | * maybe just bad connection | 16:50:07 |
| aktaboot | yeah it seems to be working better now | 16:53:09 |
| aktaboot | my pc is frying which is a good sign :D | 16:53:18 |

my pc is frying which is a good sign :D Nice lol | 16:55:25 |
| aktaboot | seems to be working, | 17:38:42 |
| aktaboot | whole reason I was using fenix is to get access to rustc nightly builds, which I ain't sure how to do | 17:38:50 |
| aktaboot | do I build rustc from source as a flake input or somthing ? It has to be more cursed than that, no ? | 17:40:00 |

do I build rustc from source as a flake input or somthing ? It has to be more cursed than that, no ? I haven't used fenix in forever, but I think you would specify it once you fetched the overlay, either through the overlay or through the packages. For example in the oxalica/rust-overlay you would do something like this: (pkgs.rust-bin.selectLatestNightlyWith (toolchain: toolchain.default)) ]} | 17:44:24 |
| aktaboot | so with oxalica I don't need fenix to use the nightly binary, right ? | 17:47:01 |
| a-kenji | Yes, they would be independent. | 17:47:14 |
| aktaboot | oh you mean I have to do the same/equivalent overlay but with fenix | 17:47:38 |
| a-kenji | It also seems that fenix either doesn't have nightly toolchains, or forgot to add it to the documentation: https://github.com/nix-community/fenix#usage | 17:47:41 |
| aktaboot | I don't know I asked about how to use the nightly toolchain, and I got suggested to use fenix | 17:48:20 |
| aktaboot | so I blindly followed :D | 17:48:30 |
| a-kenji | Maybe it's just not in the documentation then :D. | 17:49:00 |
| Charles ⚡️ | Uh what, Fenix has nightly | 17:53:30 |
| a-kenji | This is how I usually use the oxalica overlay: overlays = [ (import rust-overlay) ];, then you can use the snippet I copied earlier directly. | 17:49:52 |
| aktaboot | yeah | 17:53:45 |
| aktaboot | I'm figuring out | 17:53:51 |
| Charles ⚡️ | It just calls it "latest", "complete", and "minimal" | 17:53:55 |
