<Ericson2314> wow!
<simpson> qyliss: Waaaaait a moment. Do the cross-compiled executables work?
<qyliss> simpson: yeah
<sterni> time to find the powerpc imac in my parents basement again
<sterni> lol turns out I am the only person in nixpkgs to ever use that the clang wrapper used to pass through its accompanying llvm vresion
<sterni> okay it was renamed from llvm -> libllvm
<sterni> according to ag "cc.llvm" it only was used once ever though lol
<qyliss> simpson: I've also cross-compiled and successfully booted a NetBSD kernel (on x86_64)
<simpson> qyliss: What a mad scientist. Excellent.
<qyliss> next up: getting Nix to compile; cross-compiling some bootstrap binaries.
<qyliss> we're pretty much done with cross bringup now
<qyliss> so onto native
<sterni> hope you don't have too much trouble with boost
<qyliss> boost doesn't seem to be a problem (at build time, at least...)
<qyliss> oh, whoops, I forgot to actually tell it to build for NetBSD, not my host system
<sterni> maybe it isn't with gcc
<qyliss> yeah, I haven't tried LLVM at all
<sterni> it does weird things with llvm and cross compilation
<sterni> but probably fixable, most likely just annoying
<sterni> the derivation looks kind of wild, so I've been avoiding it
<sterni> or not really wild, but a lot of parts
<qyliss> yeah, boost is fine even when I remember to cross-compile :P
<qyliss> but libarchive isn't working
