The build system generates the file "hitables.c" with the program "./himktables" that is also compiled by the build system. This does not work when cross-compiling since this program is built for the wrong architecture. We already use a natively built copy of texlive.bin.core for various other tools (like tangle, weave), so this change just adds himktables to the this native copy and uses this program in the cross build.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
It's been a long long time since I used TeX. However:
I verified with nix-diff that the only change to the native-compile drv is adding a new output (dev) and two lines of postInstall that populate that new output.
So the risk of breakage here is very small.
If ofborg succeeds with the two builds I asked it to do, I intend to merge this.

(The cross builds of texlive.bin.latexindent, texlive,bin.xdvi and texlive.bin.biber still fail. This PR only fixes core and core-big. Updating the title to reflect that. I'll look into the others tomorrow.) |
