thefloweringash: You've been very active in most of these issues, I'd appreciate your comments if you have some time.
<thefloweringash>
__monty__: I added some brief comments, seems reasonable to me

<3 thefloweringash Thanks!

thefloweringash: Re the frameworks. I thought this was because some of the frameworks have had open source releases?
mog- has joined #nix-darwin
Siyo has joined #nix-darwin
<thefloweringash>
I'm not aware of the frameworks being open source. There's the swift-corefoundation project, but things like Foundation, Cocoa, ApplicationServices, CoreServices, etc, I thought were entirely closed source
<__monty__>
Can't really find many but IOKit is part of apple_source_releases. So I think it was open source at least at some point.
<__monty__>
If there's no advantages to listing dependencies on parts of the SDK though, maybe most of that can go out the window?

Would it make it easier to determine whether or not something's compatible with different SDK versions?
aminechikhaoui8 is now known as aminechikhaoui

andremed- is now known as andremedeiros
<thefloweringash>
might be able to go, but if possible I'd like to hear from the people that made it like it is
<thefloweringash>
I don't think it'd change much about the compatibility. might make it slightly easier to swap out for different packages.
<thefloweringash>
though before trying to package all the versions of the sdk, I'd hope to do something simpler like building for the latest apple supported os.
<thefloweringash>
sounds like Qt is requiring quite new versions of macos though. what do projects built with Qt tend to do? Only support 2019 and newer macos, or use old versions of qt?
<__monty__>
In Nixpkgs I think they just use 5.12. Outside I have no idea. I expect most don't put effort into supporting past the officially supported OS versions but maybe they don't fix it as long as it's not broken?
