emily | so the scons overrides are just dead code | 18:11:26 |
emily | in fact a ton of stage1Packages seem to be

now I'm wondering if I've somehow misunderstood how stage1Packages works
| 18:12:23 |
Randy Eckenrode | passthru.tests that greps nix-store -qR <stdenv.drv> for those paths and fails if they aren’t there? | 18:13:36 |
emily | I guess there's not much we can do at eval time | 18:14:01 |
samasaur | In reply to @emilazy:matrix.org
nix-store -qR again ah i was thinking this would show them even if they were unused | 18:14:36 |
Randy Eckenrode | I would like to try structuring the bootstrap as a cross (with prevStage really being buildPackages). It probably wouldn’t reduce the number of builds, but it might allow is to drop most of the overlays. | 18:15:02 |
Randy Eckenrode | But that is like 26.11 or 27.05 stuff. | 18:15:28 |
Randy Eckenrode | Aside from this cleanup, I want to switch Darwin to LLD by default. That will require some work because LLD is not wrapped properly for that. | 18:16:01 |
Randy Eckenrode | No cctools or ld64 should be in the bootstrap at that point. | 18:16:51 |
emily | hmm, do we actually use python3-bootstrap as our final pkgs.python3? | 18:17:36 |
emily | does that mean Darwin gets Python without any LTO? | 18:17:41 |
Randy Eckenrode | I also want to drop the source releases from the SDK and vendor the needed sources along with the others. | 18:18:00 |
emily | or is it just that we use one python3-bootstrap build throughout the entire bootstrap but then it gets built once more for the real python3? | 18:18:13 |
