10:51:20 heya. Is this the right channel to ask about pkgin repositories? 10:51:37 sure 11:13:05 there is a package https://pkgsrc.se/lang/zig 11:13:52 but it's missing from https://pkgsrc.smartos.org/packages/Linux/el7/trunk/x86_64/All 11:14:28 I wonder is this something I don't know (like a feature) or rather a bug :) 11:26:52 the el7 builds are terrible, for example the latest: https://us-central.manta.mnx.io/pkgsrc/public/reports/Linux/el7/trunk/x86_64/20230719.2238/meta/report.html 11:27:03 the problem is it ships with an old gcc that can no longer compile modern software 11:27:16 given it's EOL soon I'll probably just turn it off 11:52:45 OK. Two things then. 11:53:42 (1) Are the builds for EL8 and EL9 available by chance? 11:54:05 not yet, I'm waiting on netpgp to be fixed so that I can ship signed packages 11:56:05 (2) [ jperkin, you might have been answering this already but I don't remember ] Why not build and use the newer GCC from own repos then? 12:03:01 it's possible but that comes with its own drawbacks, you now have to ship the gcc runtime linked against every package, and you also need to install the gcc package for every build, making everything considerably slower 12:03:21 it's what we do for SmartOS builds, but it makes them about twice as slow 12:09:21 fair, thanks 12:14:11 and what's the story about netpgp? Can I read about this somewhere? 12:20:39 it's unable to decrypt pgp packets generated on newer Linux, I don't know the exact details 12:21:58 https://gist.github.com/jperkin/5eec9d2adc3eaf1b755b0f666d745451 12:30:47 ack 12:37:10 probably the last q in this series: (3) Is there any pkgin repos known hosting packages from WIP? Probably not. 12:37:29 s/Is/Are/ 12:38:38 s/hosting/to host/ 12:41:53 my SmartOS ones contain a few, in general though you won't find many, you certainly can't do any bulk builds of all of wip 12:43:12 right, ty
