could also be stuck at e.g. tls handshake That wouldn't normally be "resolving". | 15:40:02 |
| aloisw | In reply to @michailik:matrix.org
something i just observed: this happens when using ?ref in a flake's input url, e.g. inputs.nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs?ref=nixos-unstable", this issue does not occur with inputs.nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable" There has been some regression around ref around 2.91, uncaught and unfixed because no one cares about flakes enough. | 15:46:59 |
 raitobezarius | aloisw do you remember the issue number for this one? | 19:48:03 |
| raitobezarius | i think it's time we mark it release blocker | 19:48:07 |
| raitobezarius | but i hate being responsible for these ones :'( | 19:48:20 |
| raitobezarius | but i should probably touch flakes code to execute on out of core extraction | 19:48:37 |
| raitobezarius | https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/520 | 19:54:21 |
| aloisw | https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/841 is the one I had in mind. | 19:54:23 |
| aloisw | Contrary to the comment that caused me to get pinged on it, I do not think it was me who broke it. | 19:54:46 |
| raitobezarius | yeah, nw | 19:55:09 |
| raitobezarius | I think the 2.94.0 train will depart soon | 19:55:19 |
| raitobezarius | I do not have it in me to fix this sort of stuff last minute | 19:55:25 |
 hexa | choo chooooo | 19:57:20 |

 Michaili K | oh its already known, okay ty! i went with replacing the ?refs | 20:38:56 |
| raitobezarius | sorry for that ^^' | 20:39:07 |
| Michaili K | * oh its already known, okay ty! i went with replacing the ?refs so im all good now | 20:39:09 |
| raitobezarius | This might be fixed in an upcoming patch release of 2.93 or 2.94 | 20:39:16 |
| Michaili K | im all good! found out quickly after my initial message that it was caused by the ?refs | 20:44:09 |
| Michaili K | wanted to be sure it was a known issue too... but i didnt htink of... checking the issue tracker... xd | 20:44:44 |
| Michaili K | im not well versed in C/C++ so i couldnt really help fixing it. i could try bisecting though | 20:47:12 |
| raitobezarius | i already know what caused it, don't worry | 21:24:34 |

|  suya changed their profile picture. | 11:16:28 |
 Emma [it/its] | i wonder if its possible to build less of lix | 14:34:04 |
| Emma [it/its] | ie. ommitting nix-channel etc | 14:34:36 |
| aloisw | Such a possibility does not exist right now. I'm also afraid it wouldn't help much, as nix-channel is not that large and mostly works by calling other stuff that has to be there anyway. | 14:48:16 |
|  flax changed their display name from Jean to flax. | 15:31:38 |
 Katie | Hello. I have a question about prior art in Nix language RFCs/pre-RFCs of if anyone had anyone had ever proposed something along the lines of Regex Literals?
Considering that the Lix project is interested in evolving the language12, I figured this might be a good place to ask?
(Wasn't sure if this moreso belonged here or in Development)

 K900 | Was never proposed AFAIK and also Nix regex semantics are wildly underspecified | 18:31:29 |
