 Ihar Hrachyshka | hexa: if my theory ^ is correct (which is hard to believe), then I'd advise to bump max-silent-time settings on infra to 4h. all nixpkgs cases where maxSilent is overridden in meta are for 4h. | 03:59:00 |
 Martin Häcker | Anyone at FOSDEM and would like to meet? | 10:12:16 |
 WeetHet | Why if there no command not found database in the nixpkgs-* tarballs only in the nixos-* ones? | 17:56:35 |
 K900 | Some stupid channel scripts thing | 18:03:10 |
| K900 | Didn't we drop it anyway | 18:03:17 |
| K900 | Please just use nix-index | 18:03:22 |
| 1 Feb 2026 |
| WeetHet | Erm, no? It's good enough if I don't want to pull in nix-index | 14:14:12 |
| WeetHet | Just because it is only included in tarballs and not on github doesn't make it a stupid channel thing | 14:14:39 |
|  Ducky changed their display name from mrdukydev to Ducky. | 23:10:59 |

 Randy Eckenrode | aaaaaaaaaaaaah | 00:55:27 |
| Randy Eckenrode | I’ve been trying to make sure that Swift uses the real path to the stdlib when it sets the rpath. Apparently it’s mpv’s Meson that does that. | 00:55:57 |
| Randy Eckenrode | Blah | 00:55:58 |
| Randy Eckenrode | My code seems to work though. If you use the hidden -toolchain-stdlib-rpath argument, it resolves the rpath to the stdlib path of /nix/store/ss85ygcfnr99yjdk23li8v8s56ngvcl3-stdlib-6.2.3-dev/lib/swift/macosx. Which is wrong, but its heart is in the right place. | 00:58:29 |
| Randy Eckenrode | I patched the mpv derivation to use the right path. I’m going to punt on fixing the above until it affects the Linux build. | 03:13:49 |
| Randy Eckenrode | Before doing that, I want to revist the Swift package stuff. It’s too magic. I’m thinking now of just putting stuff in an attribute that you reference, so to set up SwiftPM, you add foo-package.sdist or something to buildInputs. | 03:14:47 |
| Randy Eckenrode | Is there any precedent for doing a vendor tarball as a derivation for each piece of the tarball? | 03:15:03 |
| Randy Eckenrode | I am also considering reintroducing fetchSwiftPMDeps or something to that effect. | 04:29:41 |
 debtquity | oooh, the swift compiler error is fixed, yay | 04:43:33 |
 samasaur | re:prebuilts, are you still hoping to get that to work? Given that packages can have traits now I imagine that isn't a perfect solution | 06:38:58 |
| Randy Eckenrode | No. Traits is one of the reasons. The other is fighting how Swift wants to do things with the stdlib has been a huge time suck. | 11:32:00 |
| Randy Eckenrode | I expect prebuilts to be similarly bad. | 11:32:15 |
| Randy Eckenrode | I understand now why the previously separate lib output was done the way it was. Swift does not really support finding host libs and .swiftmodules separately from the stdlib. | 11:42:58 |

 m.a. | cups still works (at least for me). it ended up being a bit tedious to do it from my device though and i ended up setting a print server for myself on my university account. as such i don't have the bandwidth to continue working on this personally (thought it should be doable, and i might try to work on it over spring break) | 05:36:47 |

 Gaétan Lepage | FYI, llvmPackages_22.llvm is broken on darwin. | 14:18:33 |

| niklaskorz | well at least it looks like it never worked on darwin, nobody tested it when llvm 22 was added two weeks ago | 14:32:06 |
