siraben | Is trofi on matrix? | 00:39:18 |

siraben | prs like https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/519568 are nice but I've been working on the mescc tools recently and they seem like they still need a lot of improvement, they are prone to segfaulting if not used correctly | 20:58:29 |
siraben | e.g. https://github.com/oriansj/mescc-tools/pull/52 | 20:58:31 |
siraben | is this a problem given that we use kaem/catm etc. in minimal bootstrap? | 20:58:49 |
siraben | we can ask mescc-tools to cut a new release | 21:02:28 |
dish [Fox/It/She] | In reply to @siraben:matrix.org is this a problem given that we use kaem/catm etc. in minimal bootstrap? not really, the idea is we use early-stage tools for as little as possible before getting to stuff like coreutils | 21:36:47 |
dish [Fox/It/She] | if there are issues with our usage we should patch the tools or fix our usage but ideally we use them as little as possible | 21:37:13 |

Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | I have a PR to switch cc-wrapper to use TLSDESC on supported architectures. Would appreciate your opinions on it from people more familiar with gcc/clang toolchains https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/518519. | 23:17:59 |
Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | I'm building as much stuff as I can reasonably can with the amount of compute I have and it seems pretty smooth sailing. | 23:18:55 |
