<pabs3>ACTION wrote a comment, hope its ok <janneke>pabs3: thanks, i think that was pretty ok <janneke>if there are more questions you might mention directly why bootstrappable builds become more ipmortant: <janneke>* non-bootstrappable builds may require running binary blobs "from the internet"; some modern distributions frown upon that (supply chain security) <janneke>* modern distros (nix, guix) have packages in an acyclic graph, they simply _cannot_ have build cycles; and without adding binary blobs, an non-bootstrappable package won't make it into such a distro <ekaitz>it's interesting but I don't think it's really useful for us here at the bootstrapping level <Mikaku>hi, I'm seeing that tasks in issue #292 are not completing. It says it was expected to reach 1.0 version in July but the project seems completely halted to me <stikonas>Mikaku: that's because we found kind of a blocker for 1.0 release <stikonas>(and despite the text saying, mes 0.26 would not fix it on its own) <matrix_bridge><Andrius Štikonas> Mikaku: other than that, live-bootstrap is not in bad shape <matrix_bridge><Andrius Štikonas> And I was also busy with bootstrapping on riscv64 <stikonas>Mikaku: speaking of non-x86 bootstrap, is Fiwix strictly x86 kernel or would ports to other arches be not too hard? <stikonas>though we are nowhere close to kernel bootstrapping on riscv64...
