@k900:0upti.meK900That wraps the original package18:07:11
@k900:0upti.meK900 And then pass it to mkOverridable again 18:07:18
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its]hoping itll be invisible to the end user because otherwise ill need to diverge my nixos-rebuild wrapper scripts even more between nix and lix18:07:47
@k900:0upti.meK900My personal hope is that whatever ends up happening makes flakes irrelevant18:08:12
@k900:0upti.meK900By allowing better designs to exist in the same space18:08:21
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its]i dont really see the issues with them tbh, and i enjoy flakes as they are a lot18:09:04
@k900:0upti.meK900Cross-compilation is ~fundamentally broken18:09:20
@k900:0upti.meK900The layout is extremely verbose18:09:33
@k900:0upti.meK900The dependency resolution is non-existent18:09:43
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its] i like the layout though
also wdym "dependency resolution" here?
18:10:26
@k900:0upti.meK900I mean that you have to spam .follows everywhere18:11:00
@k900:0upti.meK900To make flakes reasonably compose18:11:06
@k900:0upti.meK900And I bet you're using flake-utils or flake-parts or whatever for the layout18:11:39
@k900:0upti.meK900That abstracts the nonsense away18:11:45
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its]this seems like a benefit to me (at least for flakes that give you packages)18:12:23
@whispers:catgirl.cloudwhispers (it/fae)versioning is just nonexistent too18:12:33
@k900:0upti.meK900What is, having to spam .follows everywhere?18:12:44
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its] // flake-utils.lib.eachSystem flake-utils.lib.allSystems ( is the only part where i use flake-utils, and that's only for packages outputs 18:12:49
@k900:0upti.meK900So you are in fact using an entire abstraction to express things that are bad18:13:06
