@daslixou:matrix.orgdaslixouwell I've read the zulip discussion16:07:25
@k900:0upti.meK900And one of the major blockers towards this has been recently fixed16:07:26
@daslixou:matrix.orgdaslixou well I've read skimmed over the zulip discussion 16:07:43
@acidbong:envs.netAcid Bong ah, so they also want to get rid of the eval-build separation? 16:08:03
@acidbong:envs.netAcid Bong(or is it not the point?)16:08:14
@k900:0upti.meK900That is not the point16:08:18
@k900:0upti.meK900But that is also something we'd like to do at some point16:08:26
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariuswe definitely want to fully go to Rust16:09:26
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusit's just a matter of possibility16:09:32
@acidbong:envs.netAcid Bongoh, didn't know that16:09:52
@daslixou:matrix.orgdaslixoualso - with a bit confusion, I know that nix is seperated into pkgs and os (and lang), is lix primarily a "better" interpreter? or are there also plans/active things on doing something like lixos? (I'm asking because I dislike using systemd)16:10:31
@k900:0upti.meK900Lix is just an interpreter16:11:12
@k900:0upti.meK900There is currently no LixOS16:11:19
@k900:0upti.meK900But given anyone who is involved in something like that happening, there will be more systemd16:11:29
@k900:0upti.meK900Not less16:11:30
@k900:0upti.meK900Because in fact systemd good16:12:07
@k900:0upti.meK900(mostly)16:12:13
@encrypteddvjjrxv:x-hain.deSpectral (he/him)I mean if there evet will be something like LixOS then it should probably not be named that to avoid recreating the whole naming headache that nix has16:12:50
@k900:0upti.meK900It will not be named LixOS no16:13:28
@coca162:matrix.orgCoca"it's up to you to break generational trauma"16:15:25
@acidbong:envs.netAcid Bong at least it's more convenient than Guix being used for both the repo (guixpkgs*), the OS (guixos*) and the tool
(ik the OS is technically called Guix System, but most ppl drop "system")

@piegames:flausch.socialpiegames
In reply to @k900:0upti.me
There is some work ongoing on the Rust parser, you want to talk to @piegames about that
https://git.lix.systems/piegames/lix-parser it has started ✨

@piegames:flausch.socialpiegamesLiving out of tree while still in the prototype stage16:22:48
@daslixou:matrix.orgdaslixouwinnow, I see16:23:01
@piegames:flausch.socialpiegamesSo to set expectations, the timeline for amy of this is "hopefully still in 2026 but no guarantees"16:23:17
@piegames:flausch.socialpiegames* So to set expectations, the timeline for any of this is "hopefully still in 2026 but no guarantees"16:23:31
@daslixou:matrix.orgdaslixouRedacted or Malformed Event16:23:32
@daslixou:matrix.orgdaslixoutime to make a lix account iguess16:26:27
@daslixou:matrix.orgdaslixou I have to ask, from where are the whole stateful, bytecode, parserstate and thunk things from? I want to make sense of how they'd be used 16:36:08
@madmccrow:matrix.orgmadmccrow It's more like : I don't like the way to have latest and stable nixpkgs side by side when developing for machines with radically different missions (ie. Gaming desktop, vs backup NAS) .
If you add the fact that the flake layout might require you to have some inputs twice ( like for example if you wanna use Lanzaboote with both stable and latest).
A lockfile by machine would be better by a mile, but I don't know how to do it without splitting my work in multiple repos.
Because I've read that the lix community wasn't satisfied with flakes in it's current state, I would have thought some alternative was being used.
