| matthewcroughan - nix.how | I'm not sure if you do, the cmd errors in a strange way | 19:29:32 |

| matthewcroughan - nix.how | The problem with the BSDs seems to be that you can't recreate the stdenv | 19:29:49 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | Nix has a stdenv, and you may not be creating the exact one it expects. | 19:30:02 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | even if it's slight version mismatches | 19:30:13 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | Unless you have reason to believe the error you sent is BSD specific | 19:30:32 |
| qbit | well ya can't run nix if it doesn't build :P | 19:30:49 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | I know. | 19:32:02 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | That's your job. | 19:32:04 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | You have to get the deps, because you're bootstrapping it./ | 19:32:20 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | * You have to get the deps, because you're bootstrapping it. | 19:32:21 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | it is genuinely a compiler needing a compiler to compile the compiler type situation | 19:32:54 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | And I've no reason to believe it wouldn't work, if you get the right dependencies available in your /lib | 19:33:27 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | because I've not seen any outstanding issues made about open | 19:33:45 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | * because I've not seen any outstanding issues made about openbsd | 19:33:47 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | Someone more knowledgeable than mewould be able to tell you right away why it won't work, etc. | 19:34:48 |

| qbit | https://github.com/jasperla/openbsd-wip/tree/55f5811c2621c3690771bbc3429b0fd82621be8f/devel/nix/patches these are the patches that were needed to make an older version build (and some that add openbsd port-specific things like patch-mk_libraries_mk ) | 19:35:46 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | right, so why can't you reproduce that? | 19:36:28 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | what's missing? | 19:36:49 |
| qbit | nothing, those will make the older version build - but then nothing is usable because there isn't an openbsd stdenv :P | 19:38:30 |
| qbit | newer versinos of nix fail in different ways | 19:38:37 |
| qbit | and making stdenv work is a task I don't have time to take on | 19:46:59 |
| qbit | maybe I will once the kiddo is older, time will tell | 19:50:34 |
