ivy | also is there a cache for nightly lix builds? | 13:56:15 |
K900 | Not really | 13:57:05 |
ivy | womp womp | 13:57:43 |
ivy | whats the barrier ? | 13:58:21 |
ivy | il set one up if not cause it’s annoying rebuilding | 14:00:28 |
ivy | as a girhub action for every night that pulls main and builds and caches and commits to a repo nixpkgs-unstable-esque | 14:03:22 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | isnt there ugh | 19:54:07 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | really any better tooling for patching nixpkgs | 19:54:12 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | like | 19:54:13 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | I dont wanna fork it just for that | 19:54:18 |
thubrecht | If you don't care about ifd, you can use pkgs.applyPatches on the nixpkgs source | 19:57:13 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | I mean, how can I do that if I cant modify it staright from the the inputs.<> | 20:31:29 |

lillecarl | I figured I should try using a ssh cache since that's what I'm using to push

lillecarl | The logic for fetching really wants things to be online 😄 | 22:24:01 |

522 it/its ⛯ΘΔ | i was searching for colmena and noticed that it's also in nixpkgs as nixpkgs.lixPackageSets.{latest, git}.colmena: should i assume that this is "colmena but built to use lix" (and i should use that over nixpkgs.colmena if i use lix?). And i guess use git since i also use lix on main? | 00:34:10 |
just1602 | I don't know if it's gonna rebuild it if your build on main isn't the same as the one in the package set, but personaly I build the package from source directly with my lix build. Like I have this in my flake devShell colmena.defaultPackage."${system}". | 00:38:29 |
just1602 | But the one from the lix packgeSets should work, tho. | 00:38:47 |
whispers | if you use the lix module, that automatically applies overlays so that nixpkgs.colmena will do the right thing | 02:03:18 |
whispers | * if you use the lix nixos-module (https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/nixos-module/), that automatically applies overlays so that nixpkgs.colmena will do the right thing | 02:03:27 |
whispers | lixPackageSets.git is updated periodically, but it's the same as lix-on-main (it's probably a couple of days behind), and you'll end up pulling the version of lix that nixpkgs has and the lix-on-main that you're using. aiui that mostly exists for folks who want the newest possible lix while still benefiting from the binary cache | 02:07:40 |
