 Atemu | That'd be awesome :)
I don't expect good code quality from a WIP/PoC ;)

| Atemu | Thanks lol ^^' | 15:45:54 |
 aloisw | Isn't that what https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/flake-compat is supposed to achieve with copySourceTreeToStore = false? | 17:07:33 |
| aloisw | Of course if the code in the flake itself assumes that it's in the store (which is a valid assumption under flakes) it will either copy anyway or fail. | 17:08:43 |
| Atemu | This was pointed out to me independently 20min ago; will have a look! | 17:11:19 |
 raitobezarius | In reply to @piegames:flausch.social
Do we have a command to easily check (and debug) remote builder connections? If not, can I request that as a feature? Already planned | 17:14:17 |
| raitobezarius | But the new machines format would make this greatly easier | 17:15:03 |
 piegames | I'm trying to run nix-instantiate --parse within a derivation builder (for Flaker purposes), and it fails with error: creating directory '/nix/var': Permission denied | 17:33:30 |
| piegames | this makes no sense to me. Why does nix want to create /nix/var directory? I didn't ask it to! I just want it to parse that silly file | 17:33:57 |
| aloisw | It does a bunch of filesystem accesses on startup, no matter what you end up actually using. | 17:37:22 |
| aloisw | https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/src/commit/3661f34abafaecc36c9141a70ad84295aa632723/lix/libstore/store-api.cc#L1407-L1411 because the daemon socket doesn't exist, it tries to recreate the local store I guess? | 17:40:57 |
|  @steeringwheelrules:tchncs.de left the room. | 18:12:46 |
| piegames | Any good options for me to run some simple nix evals in the build sandbox? | 18:49:53 |
 Yureka (she/her) | yeah you can just --store $PWD | 19:41:19 |

 mjm | lix is now in nixos-unstable, what's the best way to use it in a NixOS config? | 15:47:41 |
 K900 | nix.package = pkgs.lix | 15:47:54 |
| K900 | Probably | 15:47:58 |
| K900 | Or just keep using the module | 15:48:02 |
 puck | you can use nix.package = pkgs.lix; if you want; but using the overlay will guarantee more updates (tho less binary cache) | 15:48:44 |
| mjm | well, the module/overlay doesn't easily support using the one from nixpkgs | 15:48:44 |
| mjm | i do want more binary cache | 15:49:21 |
| mjm | yeah i guess i'll just do nix.package then | 15:50:43 |
| raitobezarius | to have binary cache and HEAD, we will probably need to track the channels and bolt a lix on there and rebuild with our own CI then push in our binary cache | 17:33:17 |
 Charles | What's lix using as its binary cache? Attic? | 17:34:36 |
