<stikonas>hmm, so patch in live-bootstrap is either too old or buggy...
<stikonas>I'll build new version
<oriansj>To be honest I think the most interesting link from that RISC-V story is: http://pepijndevos.nl/2019/07/18/vhdl-to-pcb.html
<xentrac>the URL is very juicy, let's see
<xentrac>wow, that's wonderful, oriansj! thank you!
<oriansj>and the RISC-V bootstrap seed for stage0 was provided by ekaitz and it looks to include enough info for me to start incorporating a proper RISC-V ELF header
<fossy>stikonas: what are symptoms
<vagrantc>oooh!
<xentrac>♥♥♥
<stikonas>fossy: patch fails to apply
<stikonas>and applied fine when I built patch 2.7.6
<stikonas>it was actually the problem with patch and not gettext tarball, so I can just use released tarball
<stikonas>no need to use git archive
<stikonas>fossy: https://github.com/fosslinux/live-bootstrap/pull/120 can you review/merge this?
<stikonas>I want to further move coreutils a bit
<stikonas>after I'm done with gettext
<stikonas>(to remove gettext patch from coreutils)
<stikonas>actually nevermind... I have used realpath from coreutils to build gettext...
<Hagfish>(for what it's worth, that PR looks great to me. very readable code and clear comments, even though i'm not familiar with the surrounding pieces)
<siraben>FYI, I was watching ##ob-fsf today and looks like the fsf have strong preferences to leave freenode, rasengan even supported their move
<fossy>huh?!
<fossy>rasengan supported a group /moving from freenode/!
<siraben>fossy: indeed https://i.k8r.eu/t3fyKg.png
<fossy>i can't make much head or tail of what rasengan is saying there but that's pretty typical. however what you are saying is clear that rasengan thinks they should make a irc.fsf.org
<siraben>fossy: it's also because fsf was discussing the possibility of self-hosting
<siraben>which wasn't as well received in the discussion, hopefully someone can give the full logs for the discussion for the whole context
<siraben>those are 3 messages from thousands
***rekado_ is now known as rekado
<rekado>rasengan has made statements about decentralization of IRC elsewhere before.
<stikonas>why didn't he move to matrix then...
<siraben>he makes claims like that without following up with more technical details, many assume he doesn't have a good understanding of how IRC operates
<siraben>(I don't want to derail the channel too much, but just posting this for context on how other FOSS projects are followign suit)
<siraben>following
