       Speaking of that LLM-less Zed fork, Gram: someone has already made an AUR package for it!https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gram-editor-git(see https://codeberg.org/GramEditor/gram)

       @aud Looks promising, but whoever built that PKGBUILD could have left out npm, and nodejs dependencies 🤮

       @aud The upstream scripts/linux dependency list doesn’t include them. Also wtf is alsa-lib doing in there? That PKGBUILD is a mess…

       @schrotthaufen@mastodon.social oh, I do see alsa libs in the script/linuxbut no npm or nodejs; I wonder if those were added since some language servers use them.

       @aud Maybe. But those two + netcat make me think it’s a left-over from forking the zed-git package. If I’m bored tomorrow evening, I might clean this up a bit, and strip dependancies down to a “it compiles” minimum.

       @schrotthaufen@mastodon.social AH, that would make a lot of sense re: the dependencies.  I hadn't considered that.  That would be a rather logical explanation.

       @aud AHAHAHA! I just tried to clean up that PKGBUILD, and the fucking script to generate the license files OOM’ed my box, because I have the audacity to have only 32 GB of RAM, and I made the mistake to open up a browser :lolsob:

       @schrotthaufen@mastodon.social holy SHITThey do mention on the main repo that it takes a ton of RAM since Rust's compilation is greedy AF, buuuuuut goddamn, that's hitting straight up browser territory here, WTF.

       @aud Yep. And that’s not even compiling the actual program. That’s just cargo about in the prepare() part of the build… (And while I’m ranting: Why the fuck does it compile cargo-about?!? That’s packaged in the arch, btw repos, and explicitly listed in the makedepends(). Why is rust?)

       @aud This makes me think that rust is not a good programming language. If it needs this much RAM, it’s just gatekeeping coding for those who can afford 128 gigs of RAM. Shit should compile on 8 GB, even if it takes hours. I fucking compiled KDE ON 4 GB RAM, ONCE UPON A TIME!

       @schrotthaufen@mastodon.social the people who seem to be "in charge" of Rust have consistently disappointed me on every single axis possible, so...do I like Rust?  Sure, yeah, well enough.  But I also hate Rust.  But I also like it.
