 Rutile (rootile) | nix build runs fine on latest HEAD for me | 09:21:34 |
 Yureka (she/her) | ok, this suggests we need to look for differences in the nixpkgs packaging vs the Lix packaging | 09:21:57 |
| Yureka (she/her) | I don't have an easy solution for now | 09:22:31 |
 raitobezarius | There's a PR open | 09:27:11 |
| raitobezarius | To fix the install check phase | 09:27:18 |
 xored | mine failed in test 80 for lix-2.95.1.tar.gz (unfortunately I forgot the other flag but I asume it's the same error | 09:29:19 |
| xored | i got this:
warning: Nix search path entry '/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels' does not exist, ignoring
error: derivation '58v7f3l5876nhkp46f8408a4pjhmsik5-lix-2.95.1.drv' may not be deterministic: outputs differ
output '/nix/store/ylbrql19ngr2wypjiviyx21qvbwpd79z-lix-2.95.1' differs_
| 09:29:33 |
| xored | * I also got this:

| xored | I found the PR, so I sleep for now, thank you all | 09:35:57 |

 Blastboom Strice | Really cool that the new lix version prints (almost) all the processes during rebuild:) | 19:30:52 |
 K900 | This has always been an option fwiw | 19:35:26 |
| K900 | We just changed the default to be more useful | 19:35:35 |
| Blastboom Strice | And indeed it is:) | 19:39:28 |
| Blastboom Strice | Didnt know it was already possible haha | 19:39:45 |
| Blastboom Strice | I was trying to quickly read whatever the line with process would say | 19:40:09 |
| Blastboom Strice | Now thats much easier | 19:40:16 |
 Charles | say i have a program that knows paths and contents of files, and it wants to put all of those files into a single nix store path. is there any command that lix provides that could accept data from that program (say, over stdin in whatever format lix wants) to then put into a store path on the program's behalf? | 22:58:44 |
| Charles | i think nix-store --import is the closest to what i want but i'm not sure the exact format of data that command accepts is documented anywhere. at the top of https://docs.lix.systems/manual/lix/stable/command-ref/nix-store/import.html it says "import Nix Archive into the store" (emphasis mine) and yet nix-store --dump ./some-file | nix-store --import fails with error: input doesn't look like something created by 'nix-store --export' | 23:13:07 |

 griff | Charles: it is probably in this format: https://snix.dev/docs/reference/nix-daemon-protocol/types/#export-path-format | 00:11:05 |
| griff | And you probably want to export with https://docs.lix.systems/manual/lix/stable/command-ref/nix-store/export.html and not --dump | 00:12:49 |
| Charles | well, the thing is that i would be writing my own program to generate the data that gets fed to nix-store --import (or something) | 00:13:12 |
| Charles | the point of --dump was just to show that the docs seem to be lying in some capacity | 00:15:19 |
| Charles | * the point of --dump was just to show that the docs of --import seem to be lying in some capacity | 00:15:30 |
| griff | Not so much lying as omitting the fact that it also needs info about its store path references. | 00:17:46 |
