@shalokshalom:kde.orgShalokShalom* nil reports this (in Kate) while Lix is actually fine with it. 10:39:28
@toxicfrog:ancilla.caToxicFrogI'm pretty sure that's a linter message, i.e. "this won't break, it's just bad form"10:39:34
@shalokshalom:kde.orgShalokShalomand whats the correct form? 10:40:20
@shalokshalom:kde.orgShalokShalomI got it from a webpage 🙂10:40:28
@lily:lily.flowersLily Foster only putting with pkgs; if you use attributes from pkgs in the with context? nothing from pkgs is used in that with pkgs; context 10:41:02
@toxicfrog:ancilla.caToxicFrog Th with pkgs; isn't doing anything in that expression because you aren't using anything from inside pkgs 10:41:04
@shalokshalom:kde.orgShalokShalomah, ok thanks 🙂10:41:27
@toxicfrog:ancilla.caToxicFrog Like, where you'd usually expect to see it is so that you can write something like:
systemPackages = with pkgs; [ uzdoom doomrunner ]; rather than systemPackages = [ pkgs.uzdoom pkgs.doomrunner ];
10:41:40
@toxicfrog:ancilla.caToxicFrogBut in this case you can just drop the with clause entirely.10:42:31

@crystallinefire:chat.solarpunk.moeCRYSTL ⬡ joined the room.03:22:00
@crystallinefire:chat.solarpunk.moeCRYSTL ⬡hiii was wondering if it was possible to use lfs in flake urls ?03:23:15
@crystallinefire:chat.solarpunk.moeCRYSTL ⬡ got the : error: unsupported input attribute 'lfs' for the 'git' scheme 03:23:35

In reply to @crystallinefire:chat.solarpunk.moe
got the : error: unsupported input attribute 'lfs' for the 'git' scheme
You can use an input that links to the branch archive instead of the repo directly
07:51:39
@liyua:liyua.moeLiyua Check the examples here: https://nixos-and-flakes.thiscute.world/other-usage-of-flakes/inputs 07:51:59
@guipsp:matrix.orgGuilherme EspadaAfter upgrading I'm getting selinux issues - is this a known issue?16:07:54
@guipsp:matrix.orgGuilherme Espada(fedora)16:08:08
@guipsp:matrix.orgGuilherme Espada(restorecon+reboot fixes it, ftr)16:10:49
@guipsp:matrix.orgGuilherme Espada* ~(restorecon+reboot fixes it, ftr)~ nevermind, only until I run nix again16:12:27
@thefuzzball:matrix.orgTheFuzzballIncredible. I joined this room to ask the exact question. I want to turn LFS off though (lfs=0), and I'm getting the same error.17:03:37
@thefuzzball:matrix.orgTheFuzzball git+https://forge.my.tld/hartlandia/zmq-detect?ref=main&lfs=0 looks like it matches the codeberg example ("git+https://codeberg.org/solver-orgz/treedome?ref=master&lfs=1"), but I get the same error. 17:09:48
@thefuzzball:matrix.orgTheFuzzballThat's with Lix 2.95.117:10:00
@kip93:matrix.orgkip93

Hello, the guy who wrote a good chunk of the lfs support in nix here!

Nix added proper support for lfs in 2.27, long after the 2.18 branch off of lix.
I have an open gerrit change request to add lfs support to lix too but for now flakes and libfetchers are considered frozen and new features are not accepted, so it sits there unmerged (and probably requires a rebase by now)

17:11:15
@thefuzzball:matrix.orgTheFuzzballAh, thanks for taking the time. I'll follow the gerrit17:13:26

@crystallinefire:chat.solarpunk.moeCRYSTL ⬡oh great to know thanks00:12:46
@alina:catgirl.cloudalina arielle amelie🏳️‍⚧️🐾can someone give me a hint of where to find the code for the recursing/tree traversing behavior that happens when building a derivation in nix? and if there is any stable project implementing this in rust yet, tvix seems unfinished09:33:51

@alina:catgirl.cloudalina arielle amelie🏳️‍⚧️🐾oh i think it might be lix/subprojects/nix-eval-jobs/src/worker.cc09:36:51
@delroth:delroth.netdelrothI'm not exactly sure what you're looking for, but that nix-eval-jobs folder is an optional part of Lix exposed as a separate program, so I suspect it's not what you want :)09:42:46

Think you are looking for getDerivations? At least that’s what handles recurseForDerivations - I assume that’s what you mean by “tree traversing”?
