Hi, I've committed a few minor patches that fix the build of Nix on Solaris. In that state, I was able to bootstrap Nix using the native stdenv on Solaris/i386 (with a few minor modifications to nix-pkgs, that need further testing before I commit them). However, the native stdenv contains a *lot* of stuff. So I wonder whether it's possible to use stdenvNix instead, like we do on Darwin. A naive attempt to make that change resulted in an evaluation error, though, because GCC appears to be unsupported. Is there some sort of documentation that might get me started on the whole bootstrapping procedure, i.e. stdenvBoot vs. stdenv? Reading the Nix code that does this is not exactly easy. :-)
Take care, Peter _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.cs.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
