@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)what is their tld 😭13:44:56
@k900:0upti.meK900Over 12800 locations according to wikipedia13:45:53
@k900:0upti.meK900At that scale you basically have to run your own infra13:46:08
@just1602:systemli.orgjust1602For a fancy homelab that ressemble production like env with UI and everything I'd look into incus + garage or something like that13:47:08

I’m using the git version of lix from nixpkgs on my mac. But I somehow don’t get a cached build (which I think I did previously) and it fails during building when running tests.

       > FAILED ../tests/functional2/commands/test_build/test_reference_checks.py::test_regression_partial_build[files0]
       > FAILED ../tests/functional2/commands/test_build/test_reference_checks.py::test_structured_attrs_discard[files0]

Is this something known because I couldn’t find issues (on nixpkgs & lix) regarding that so far?

@marie:marie.cologneMarie it's the name of the company 13:52:21
@marie:marie.cologneMariethey have their own tld because they have too much money13:52:30
@truh:matrix.orgtruhclaiming a color for your company tld is almost as annoying as .fox13:53:44
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusif you are private cloud shaped, OpenStack makes sense14:11:47
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusceph is a filesystem technology14:11:53
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariuscontainers is one way to offer compute, it's orthogonal to openstack14:12:04
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusyou compare OpenStack to like commercial products that VMware offers14:12:19
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariuson mac, we know there are issues with macOS14:13:20
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusespecially on Tahoe14:13:27

Thanks for pointing me to the issue :) This will arrive in nixpkgs relatively soon right?
14:17:13
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusthere's no true fix for now14:17:21
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusthe workaround is to do doCheck = false; or retry frequently enough14:17:30
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariuswe are a bit blocked because introducing the shebang breaks things and we need to introduce the shebang i feel like14:18:00
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusi have no idea yet how we are going to overcome this14:18:05
@ginkogruen:matrix.orgginkogruenMaybe I’ll pin lix then until it’s fixed.14:18:17
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusit's not a lix regression alas14:18:27
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariuswhat Lix (and Nix) have been doing has always been considered unsafe to some extent by macOS I think14:18:44
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusrecent macOS upgrades started to exhibit breakage harder14:18:52
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariussufficiently so that everyone runs into it from time to time14:18:58
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius it unfortunately also extend to nix-shell -p itself 14:19:14
@ginkogruen:matrix.orgginkogruenOh then I’ve misunderstood what this build failure is about.14:19:20
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (or any runCommand primitive) 14:19:23
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius I'm not sure neither what it is, but there's an ongoing major problem with macOS related to the execution of anything without a shebang, we fixed many of those but nix-shell-based workloads are broken and we test many things in the testsuite 14:19:59
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius(are broken non-deterministically, that is, they work N % of the time)14:20:16
