@april yeah well on linux, i expect (and demand) that users build it in debian and arch linux. if it works in other distros though, that's cool too. but yeah. toolchains get messy.
i'd just bootstrap everything from source, but that's its own nightmare. i could do that. openbsd comes with modern llvm tooling in base, that can bootstrap nearly everything.
gnat (gnu ada compiler) needs to be built with ada (binary bootstrap), so i'd at least have to handle that from the ports system in openbsd.

@april thing is, openbsd already has a ports system, which already handles building a bunch of things from source. i can just integrate use of that in lbmk probably. it's possible to run the ports system as a normal user too. openbsd isn't designed for what i want to do. but i'm used to things not being designed for what libreboot wants to do. i just add a million hacks until it works :S

@libreleah for nix i could build / upstream a build script at some point, thats the cool part on nix that everything is versioned
