 matthewcroughan | The code in pkgs/tools/package-management/nix/common-meson.nix looks pretty hacky | 13:37:50 |
| matthewcroughan | Like it appears there are even two DBIs instantiated there in the graph | 13:38:13 |
| matthewcroughan | to get a pkgs.nixos {} to compile with musl I had to nix.enable = false is the context here | 13:40:25 |
| matthewcroughan | I'll make it simpler by just doing the native musl case where it fails too | 13:41:37 |
| matthewcroughan | Ah, in that case the following happens, so it fails differently

| matthewcroughan | Alyssa Ross: That's great! I see your splicing fixed one thing but showed this error up | 13:48:37 |
| matthewcroughan | The above /bin/perl not found issue happens when I apply your patch https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/452642#discussion_r2437030777 | 13:48:53 |
| matthewcroughan | But is solved the headers/type issues like /nix/store/imi8qddc1zxz2s76m5xvmbyl945i1ppg-perl-5.40.0/lib/perl5/5.40.0/aarch64-linux-thread-multi/CORE/proto.h:10777:15: error: unknown type name 'off64_t'; did you mean 'off_t'? | 13:49:26 |

| matthewcroughan | Will put that in the PR for posterity | 13:50:01 |

| matthewcroughan | Ah.. I was still applying my NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE | 13:54:04 |
| matthewcroughan | But how exactly would that lead to perl not being found | 13:55:06 |
