@neobrain:matrix.orgneobrainthat's the nix-command feature, not flakes. Enabling either feature doesn't disable the "old" interfaces afaik. but whatever works for you :)09:52:22
@vczf:matrix.orgvczf You need flakes enabled in order to nix run nixpkgs#cowsay hello
Unless I am mistaken, that nixpkgs is a reference to the system flake registry entry for nixpkgs

@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)is there something like flakes but using npins?13:42:21
@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)near how it works but standard13:42:28
@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)and which doesnt break every second like flakes does13:42:38
@k900:0upti.meK900Well it depends on which part of flakes13:43:45
@k900:0upti.meK900https://git.afnix.fr/sprinkles/sprinkles handles the "standardized output schema" bit but it's far less widely adopted13:44:05
@delroth:delroth.netdelrothit's definitely a standard if you count something not stable and used by < 10 projects as a standard13:52:40
@delroth:delroth.netdelrothI think there are ad-hoc default.nix templates that are more standard than sprinkles13:52:51
@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)Can anyone reproduce an issue with GNOME which crashes on unstable if an device which uses SCO audio is connected16:09:11

In reply to @mickeymarse:4d2.org
I've installed NixOS at some point last year influenced by someone I follow. Their installation included flakes. Since then, I've read so many things about flakes having been experimental for ages as well as controversial.
What's the general take within the Lix community? Would I just be better off?
I asked this btw also due to the blog announcing Flakes enters freeze period
18:58:55
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusFreeze period means no features essentially, not going away20:03:47
@whovian9369:matrix.orgWhovian9369
warning: 'NIX_SSL_CERT_FILE' is an impure environment variable of this derivation but a *DIFFERENT* `ssl-cert-file` was set in the settings which takes precedence.
If you use `ssl-cert-file`, the certificate gets copied in the builder environment and the environment variables are set automatically.
If you set this environment variable to be an impure environment variable, you need to ensure it is accessible to the sandbox via `extra-sandbox-paths`.
This warning may become a hard error in the future version of Lix.

I keep seeing this during builds and have absolutely zero clue where it would be getting set in the first place.

@whovian9369:matrix.orgWhovian9369Whoops, meant that for the "Lix on Main" channel - Apologies.21:12:57

@vczf:matrix.orgvczf

Upon further investigation, this is a lix-only bug

The cppnix pipe-operators implementation doesn’t break docs for lib.trivial.pipe, but the lix implementation does

I’m guessing there’s a name collision between lib.pipe and the pipe operators because Value::isPrimOp() is true

But this is my first time diving into the nix code and I don’t really understand

01:48:09
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusCan you open an issue in the tracker with these details? Thanks!07:12:34
