 aloisw | Yeah I noticed as much, see https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/434186#issuecomment-3216812062 for some more context. | 17:12:51 |
 emily | I think if someone handles the backports for the backportable part of the stack then the deadlock will be broken. | 17:49:14 |
| emily | it was only reverted on the Nix end because of the cursed Nixpkgs behaviour but I got that fixed in Nixpkgs | 17:49:26 |
| emily | and then we can just cherry-pick stuff | 17:49:33 |
| emily | I just got demotivated after firing off a bunch of cherry-picks and seeing the builds fail | 17:49:51 |
| aloisw | On 2.91 this seems to be recursive lambda not being supported due to it not being C++23 yet. But yeah the Clang ICE on 2.92 does not look fun. | 17:59:14 |
| aloisw | Actually it fails on Darwin as well due to recursive lambda so maybe it's the same. | 18:01:27 |
| aloisw | That still doesn't explain why it fails properly on Darwin and ICEs on Linux though. | 18:02:01 |
| aloisw | nix-repl> (import ./. { system = "x86_64-linux"; }).clangStdenv.cc.version
"18.1.8"
nix-repl> (import ./. { system = "aarch64-darwin"; }).clangStdenv.cc.version
"16.0.6"
That might do it I guess? | 18:04:16 |
| emily | uh, how old is that Nixpkgs pin? | 18:24:41 |
| emily | we switched to LLVM 19 on all platforms in 25.05 | 18:24:49 |
| emily | I guess CI is just running against EOL Nixpkgs releases? | 18:25:08 |
| aloisw | 2.91 and 2.92 are on 24.11. | 18:37:00 |
| aloisw | Which is also what was evaluated in the pasted nix-repl output. | 18:37:35 |
| aloisw | So either nixpkgs needs to be bumped in these old branches, the recursive lambda removed, or polyfilled with y combinator. | 18:38:26 |
| emily | I don't see why not bump Nixpkgs | 19:05:51 |
