 brendanzab | Hey, just wondering if there is there any consensus yet on what to do r.e. the flake freeze? i.e. https://lix.systems/blog/2025-11-18-lix-2.94-release/#flakes-enters-freeze-period and https://wiki.lix.systems/books/lix-contributors/page/flakes-feature-freeze?
Is it better just to wait and see where things go, trusting that there will be a decent migration period? | 09:44:50 |
 K900 | Don't do anything yet | 09:53:20 |
| K900 | There will be no removal of flakes without some sort of offramp | 09:53:34 |
| brendanzab | Ah, thanks! Was a little unsure from how the announcements were worded. | 09:57:52 |
 helle (just a stray cat girl) | there will also likely be a plug-in or similar situation to allow you to use flakes | 10:27:33 |
 nikstur | Is there a way I can give nix-eval-jobs an --attr flag (just like nix-build) so that it only builds a subset of packages in a file | 10:45:10 |

 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 |

 @tc424:glasgow.social | Last I heard they were using garage as the back end, and think about attic | 17:39:11 |
| @tc424:glasgow.social | I don't know if that means they're just pushing directly into garage's s3 interface for the moment | 17:39:36 |

| raitobezarius | In reply to @charles:computer.surgery
What's lix using as its binary cache? Attic? garage without attic | 17:41:16 |
| raitobezarius | it's homemade just nix push thingie | 17:41:24 |
| raitobezarius | and nix sign | 17:41:25 |
 Qyriad | yep | 17:44:26 |
| @tc424:glasgow.social | I've just given up on attic due to weird non-deterministic auth problems that nobody else seems to have experienced | 17:44:31 |
