Is there some option to change the log-format systemwide? Like an alternative to aliasing nix to nix --log-format multiline-with-logs
Seems like there should be a better way to do this, however I haven't been able to find much

@rosssmyth:matrix.orgrosssmythsounds like something you could shove in nix.conf but I've never tried20:25:38
@kfiz:matrix.sopado.dekfizIs this something that can/should be ported to lix? https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/1330123:28:55
@kfiz:matrix.sopado.dekfizreally annoys me when this happens23:29:39
@uep:matrix.orguepthe problem with that is when some random thing invokes cppnix instead, and it barfs23:31:57

No, there is a hacky patch for that floating around but it has never been merged.

@lillecarl:matrix.orglillecarlThe problem isn't network namespaces, it's that I must have the demo derivation in the store for nix-serve to serve it, but then it's already in store so it's not being fetched from cache, and then we don't get the positive hit required when shutting it down. I'll get back to it eventually, I'm knee-deep in a greenfield Kubernetes thing that's taking all my attention09:27:08
@lillecarl:matrix.orglillecarl* The problem isn't network namespaces, it's that I must have the demo derivation in the store for nix-serve to serve it, but then it's already in store so it's not being fetched from cache, and then we don't get the positive hit required to trigger the bug :P I'll get back to it eventually, I'm knee-deep in a greenfield Kubernetes thing that's taking all my attention09:27:36

@lillecarl:matrix.orglillecarlAre there any way to update registrationtime of a path without sqliting the Lix DB? Essentially whenever I build a package I wanna update the regime of the entire closure to "now". 17:56:33
@lillecarl:matrix.orglillecarlI've come to the conclusion that it's a great idea, and then build a GC script around registrationtime rather than nuking everything that isn't referenced 17:58:41
@lillecarl:matrix.orglillecarl(I've down it with SQLite already but it's a bit eeeeeh imho, the DB is owned by Lix) 18:00:13
