 dr_teagle | speaking of colmena what are the benefits of it? is it for remotely deploying machines? | 22:59:48 |
 antifuchs | I’ve seen it used mostly for deploying on remote machines, yes. Didn’t appeal to me so I wrote my own, with pre-condition checking (: | 23:15:19 |

|  zillion joined the room. | 00:23:18 |
| zillion | Is this the right room to ask for help installing lix? If not, what is the right room?
When I add 'nix.package = pkgs.lixPackageSets.stable.lix;' to configuration.nix and nixos-rebuild I get the error, ' error: attribute 'lixPackageSets' missing'. (I can post more, if it will help.) nix-channel --update didn't help I'm stuck. Thanks! | 00:26:42 |
| zillion | In reply to @quadradical:federated.nexus
i didnt even know you can type in spaces I was using Fractal on Nixos,, and it wouldn't show me the rooms in the space, but it let me type in the space, so…. It pissed people off. 'Sorry. I've switched to Android Schildichat on my phone. | 00:31:59 |
| Charles | yeah this is the right room. what does nix-channel --list say | 00:37:03 |
| Charles | to be clear people weren't pissed off at anyone in particular, it's just annoying that this is possible in the first place while some clients simultaneously make it impossible to view the timeline of spaces so they can't see what's going on there. not your fault really | 00:38:07 |
| zillion | It says
home-manager https://github…release-24.11.tar.gz
nixos https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-24.11 | 00:40:43 |
| Charles | well there's your problem | 00:41:24 |
| zillion | 'Sorry for the delay: I'm on my phone, so I'm copying by hand. | 00:41:25 |
| Charles | update to 25.05 and it'll probably work after that | 00:41:41 |
| zillion | Yeah, how do I fix it? I've osed Nixos for about a week. | 00:42:08 |
| Charles | curious how you ended up on 24.11 if you only started a week ago | 00:42:25 |
| zillion | Ah! Will do. Thanks. | 00:42:29 |
| zillion | Well, I installed a while ago, went to Japan, came back a week ago. | 00:43:18 |
| Charles | ah okay | 00:44:12 |
| zillion | Thanks! | 00:49:24 |

 sorrel | question: how was the list of packages in lixPackageSets determined? there are a handful of other packages that depend on nix but aren't overridden with lix (including at least comma, nix-prefetch-github, and nixos-option) – is that because they need "vanilla" nix or something? | 09:40:35 |
 aloisw | The depencies of Lix and nix-eval-jobs where first, then others were added randomly. | 09:56:49 |
 Primrose (== Léana) | When trying to build lix using a remote builder (I'm on x86_64-linux and the remote builder is aarch64-linux), I'm getting the error "unable to start any build; remote machines may not have all required system features. https://docs.lix.systems/manual/lix/stable/advanced-topics/distributed-builds.html"
However, I can't figure out which required system features are missing, how can I check that?
Thanks :)
