| tpw_rules | is there a plan/timeline to de-experiment the detsys installer, especially in light of their version not doing upstream nix anymore? | 05:14:05 |
| tpw_rules | will the non-detsys version enable flakes by default? | 05:14:20 |
| tpw_rules | i can do some macos testing and such if it may help | 05:16:52 |
 Mic92 | The plan is to finish my merge. We could even start publising the installer along with our current one now so we have the infrastructure ready. Once we start publishing the idea is based on what people report to make it the default. | 05:46:27 |

| Mic92 | https://github.com/NixOS/experimental-nix-installer/releases/tag/3.11.3 Did a session with Jeff and now we have a new rebased version | 23:33:16 |
| Mic92 | tpw_rules: ^ do you want to test. | 23:33:37 |
| 22 Nov 2025 |
| Mic92 | Okay. Just tested in on macOS. What can I say, works as intended. | 00:18:09 |
| 24 Nov 2025 |
| Matthew Kenigsberg | Nice! Do you think we should mark that as latest and start pointing people at https://artifacts.nixos.org/experimental-installer? | 14:40:41 |
| 25 Nov 2025 |
| Mic92 | Feel free. Here what i think we should do next: test it on all platforms we want to support, than create an unforked version of the repo as nix-installer with a new Readme at nix-installer because otherwise pull requests go to the wrong place. Document the installer from experimental as beta in this readme to invite more people to test. | 07:55:21 |

| Jens Petersen | May I ask (a few) distro install related questions here? :) | 11:43:19 |

(I am the new fedora nix maintainer) | 11:43:38 |
 hexa | you probably want #nix-dev:nixos.org | 11:52:49 |
| hexa | * you probably want #nix-dev:nixos.org instead | 11:53:12 |
| Jens Petersen | (sure, tho' my current questions really about the /nix dir tree) | 12:09:59 |
| Mic92 | Jens Petersen: I can answer the question here, but in general the other matrix channel has more nix core dev reading. | 12:36:02 |
| Mic92 | * Jens Petersen: I can answer the question here, but in general the other matrix channel has more nix core dev members reading. | 12:36:15 |
| Jens Petersen | Okay no worries makes sense - let me try that first then, thanks! | 12:37:01 |
| Mic92 | Just ping me there as well. | 12:37:18 |
| Jens Petersen | Mic92: my question was just if/why /nix/var/nix/builds shouldn't be setup - it seems the current upstream nix/nixos installer doesn't but determinant and maybe your new experimental one does perhaps? | 12:39:28 |
