proposal to discuss: make binary utilities like tar, diffutils, xz, etc. part of the bootstrapping #45

Closed toxa81 closed 1 year ago

Rationale: for nvhpc env. we need xz utlity, which fails to compile with nvhpc. In the current setup I will have to bootstrap gcc@11 to build xz%gcc, to be used as dependency in nvhpc env. This looks like extra step and missleading introduction of gcc@11 environment.

I've been facing similar issues. For the records, re2c (a build dependency of ninja) also fails to compile with nvhpc.

Should we start curating a list of all such issues?
