@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa RossI think we should have a table in the manual19:00:24
@andi:kack.itandi-That was the plan. I have a markdown accident^Wversion of the above in a refined form but it isn't polished enough yet.19:00:58
@domenkozar:matrix.orgDomen KožarNice!19:02:54
@andi:kack.itandi-This is the markdown version: https://md.darmstadt.ccc.de/iuE-7T3OR3yR5hmjulyPpA?edit19:16:56
@andi:kack.itandi-If someone is motivated to fight that format go for it :D19:17:06

@andi:kack.itandi-I cancelled a larger rebuild on this Mac a while ago by hitting Ctrl-C in the shell invoking nix-build... Apparently that didn't kill the background jobs that the nix-daemon stared. Is that normal on MacOS?14:02:26
@casey:hubns.netcasey © That’s normal in general. You killed your process, not nix-daemon. 14:21:07
@andi:kack.itandi-well on Linux it kills the spawned build processes as well..14:33:12
@andi:kack.itandi-Perhaps that is related to the nix version used? As this is the only box that I run nix unstable on..14:33:53
@daiderd:matrix.orgLnLI remember certain versions used to have that problem, or at least a specific combination of client daemon mismatch15:39:55
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn LnL: Update about the swift-corefoundation issue. Bumping Libsystem in the bootstrap-tools didn't make a difference. 17:20:26
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn Any more ideas are welcome. 17:20:54
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn sterni: Did you manage to get the bootstrap-tools to build? I have time to walk you through it better now. 17:21:23
@daiderd:matrix.orgLnL
In reply to @toonn:matrix.org
LnL: Update about the swift-corefoundation issue. Bumping Libsystem in the bootstrap-tools didn't make a difference.
Well yes, that Libsystem won't have the new xnu headers yet
17:42:22
@daiderd:matrix.orgLnLor did you override stuff in the bootstrap tarball17:43:13
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn Bumped Libsystem in apple-source-releases, generated a new bootstrap-tools then used that to try to generate one from the xnu commits. 17:59:36
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn The Libsystem path in the error output has the new version so I think it was all on the up-n-up. 18:00:14
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn LnL: I updated the gist, https://git.io/JGejW 18:09:19
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn You can see the version changed but the error stayed the same. 18:09:51
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn One thing I did notice in the build command `-I./-IUNUSED/usr/include/curl`, note the lack of a space. I'm investigating this because I'm not sure it's parsed as two separate flags. 18:16:03
@daiderd:matrix.orgLnLright but how did you update Libsystem?18:24:28
@daiderd:matrix.orgLnLbecause xnu -> Libsystem -> bootstrap-tools -> Libsystem -> xnu18:24:55
@daiderd:matrix.orgLnLso syslog.h can't just be updated because you can't build xnu18:25:26
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn I bumped the version in apple_source_releases/default.nix then generated bootstrap-tools. Then I check out the xnu commits and try to generate new bootstrap-tools using a stdenv with the previous bootstrap-tools passed in. 18:28:10
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn What is slightly surprising to me is that the 10.12 XNU from Apple doesn't seem to have those lines in syslog.h. 18:29:29
@daiderd:matrix.orgLnLI think you lost me, or I'm just misremembering...18:32:58
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn Ok, so the error is about some lines from Libsystem-1238.60.2 which is from macOS 10.12. 18:34:57
