nix static binaries for aarch64-darwin discoverable #14

Open tnxz opened 2 months ago

tnxz commented 2 months ago

this project seems to build static binaries for aarch64-darwin, can those binaries made discoverable to install as standalone binaries without requiring to preinstall nix on the system

I'm using Cachix pins for what it's worth.

Also on macOS, the fakedir glue library is required to launch Nix unprivileged without an existing Nix store, so I struggle to see the advantage compared to a clean install of Nix

I came across nix static binaries, but couldn't find them except for linux so was wondering if anybody got it working for darwin.
