Id love to see more work on dmd and possibly stronger containers or chroots on Guix, for the build stages.

- davexunit 12y agoIn what ways could the chroots be stronger than they already are? Anything that helps us have more deterministic builds is good.
- derefr 12y agoI don’t know about a chroot, but I was thinking for deterministic Docker/LXC builds that it’d be good to have namespaces for: A. the seed value of /dev/[u]random, and B. the system clock (it’d be especially great if namespaces could have clocks that ticked at different rates, or which only ticked when the namespace's parent process told them to, etc.) With these two things in place, you’d be able to implement something like ZeroVM just using LXC.
