To anyone interested in helping to get our build system ready for FCMP++: please consider running builds for #8929 and posting the results. It only takes a minute to set up on any Linux distribution. Follow the short instructions under 'How to test?' here: monero-project/monero #8929. Reviews are also very welcome.

Trying it now

Ubuntu 20.04 "E: Unable to locate package guix"

sech1: use the installer script (or a more recent version of ubuntu)

That's one of my Hetzner servers, I have some stuff running on it and won't be able to reboot it anytime soon

ok, I'll try the script

btw Ubuntu 20.04 is not end of life yet, guix should have prepared a package for it...

okay, it's running

sech1: nice ty, please report any issues if there are any

It's 5950X with 128GB RAM, so it should be fast, right?

I'm running it with JOBS=32

<3​21bob321:monero.social> ubuntu.com/about/release-cycle EOL April, 2027

20.04 EOL April 2025

<3​21bob321:monero.social> sorry yeah

sech1: I have similar specs, first run will take around 3-5 hours probably. Subsequent runs are much faster due to caching.

ok, but I also have a background (nice=39) process on all cores, so it can take longer...

ya, no hurry.

I added a short Q&A section to #8929.

sech1: excellent, hashes match, tysm
