fanquake: I'm more curious about why my system is so different from everyone else's that my deterministic build resulted in different binaries.
< midnightmagic>
fanquake: No OS/X updates means there's something else messed up in my case, or else I'd be making OS/X bins the same as everyone else's..
< midnightmagic>
So I'm deciding how much I actually care or not.
< fanquake>
midnightmagic: I didn’t realise that was for 0.18.0, not 0.18.1.. the difference should be the base image change then.
< elichai2>
midnightmagic: what do deterministic builds help in a closed source OS?
< elichai2>
(sorry, off topic 😅)
< sipa>
elichai2: it's not built _on_ a closed source OS
< sipa>
and yes, off topic
< elichai2>
sipa: (well in the end the code is going to run *on Mac*, and if it's gitian then he probably uses a VM *on Mac* to use gitian)
< luke-jr>
midnightmagic: when did you last let the base images update? before 0.18.0 matched for me, I had to let mine uupdate :/
< luke-jr>
(which sadly means building pre-0.18.0 probably won't match now!)
< fanquake>
elichai2: the macOS binaries are compiled on Linux using Clang. The only somewhat closed source component is extracting the macOS SDK to build against. As it requires downloading Xcode.
< sipa>
well the SDK stuff is not closed source afaik; just not freepy licensed
< sipa>
*freely
< fanquake>
True. Also need to signup for a Apple dev account if you want to download.
< luke-jr>
s/not freely licensed/ not licensed for distribution at all/
< elichai2>
fanquake: ha. that's actuall nice. my experience with cross compilation was pretty bad in the past
< midnightmagic>
0.18.1rc1 works so far.. so I'll say "not enough." :-) so.. yeah looks like an update. Okay fair enough. I can deal with that.

how can users residing in sanctioned countries raise issues on github now that github is blocking US-sacntioned countries?
< luke-jr>
mryandao: why do they need to raise issues on github?
< midnightmagic>
mryandao: there's good contact methods entirely outside of censored github.
