Specifying a name and a src is the absolute minimum Nix requires. For convenience, you can also use pname and version attributes and mkDerivation will automatically set name to "${pname}-${version}" by default.
Slightly misleading text… Nix requires name and system; Nixpkgs stdenv provides system, and requires src unless dontUnpack = true or unpackPhase isn't in phases | 14:32:16 |

KFears (burnt out) | In reply to @qyriad:katesiria.org Slightly misleading text… Nix requires name and system; Nixpkgs stdenv provides system, and requires src unless dontUnpack = true or unpackPhase isn't in phases I'm going to be grumpy about documentation organization again... In a better world, this info would be on a single page with reference link to Nixpkgs stdenv (Nix Pills ftw) | 15:28:47 |
Yureka (she/her) | Redacted or Malformed Event | 15:35:05 |
Qyriad | Yes… I should maybe just do that | 15:58:28 |
KFears (burnt out) | I hope one day I'll be able to contribute 🙏 | 16:14:44 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | how the idk even now what would you fix this? | 16:19:33 |
0x4fbb09 it/its ⛯✇ΘΔ | should the lifetime (56 days) of the conflict of interest statement on https://lix.systems/team/ be bumped up
since it's currently nearly a year out of date (Jan 7th 2025), which is a bit more than 56 days :) | 17:34:56 |
| Leah ✦ they/them joined the room. | 19:43:57 |
piegames | Uh I have a PR open which is soft-stalled for unrelated reasons | 21:43:56 |
piegames | Though it might be stalling for longer than 56 days already 🙈 | 21:44:14 |
hexa | was already asked in februar and june | 21:45:04 |
piegames | I'll try to get back to this with priority once git.lix.systems is up again | 21:54:05 |

KFears (burnt out) | Thanks team for the work on distributed builds and related documentation! The legacy format is confusing and restraining as fuck. It is highly impressive how there's a very graceful migration path towards the better machines.toml format, and the documentation is very descriptive, precise and non-ambiguous. I remember setting up distributed builds before and it was one hell of an experience; now, I've read the new documentation page and I'm fully confident I can get it to work with minimal effort, even if some sections required a careful re-read due to the mental complexity of the old system Thank you! <3 | 02:49:59 |
blitz | oh nice! what changed? does anyone have a link? | 07:32:10 |
Rutile (Commentator2.0) feel free to ping | we now support declaring remote builders using a toml file instead of the weird space (or semicolon) seperated mess the old foramt was | 09:29:21 |
Qyriad | it also accepted semicolons??? wtf | 10:14:23 |
niko ⚡️ | I also never knew it accepted semicolons I just thought everything was delimited by whitespace | 10:19:36 |
Lotte (it/its)/Cinny (she/her) | oh what | 10:28:06 |
Rutile (Commentator2.0) feel free to ping | yeeeep
there is some other cursed stuff in there too | 10:32:43 |
Rutile (Commentator2.0) feel free to ping | though iirc semicolon only instead of newline | 10:33:01 |
kloenk | exactly my reaction while reading | 10:39:55 |
Rutile (Commentator2.0) feel free to ping | :D | 10:40:19 |
helle (just a stray cat girl) | at this point, the horrors of the inherited code base have stopped to amaze me | 10:42:49 |
helle (just a stray cat girl) | which means I haven't dug deeply enough for some of them | 10:44:48 |
Rutile (Commentator2.0) feel free to ping | for (auto line : tokenizeString<std::vector<std::string>>(builders, "\n;"))
:D
