Nix Installer WG - 2023-05-10

Last meetings' notes: https://md.darmstadt.ccc.de/KhuRgW6qRSWSZAbNlKWZBQ

  • Determinate Nix Installer Check-in
    • started testing auto-allocate UIDs
      • Passing all the tests, merged but not yet released.
      • we'll add a thing to do phased roll-outs of new versions. Especially for things like this :).
    • 2.15.0 merged, but hasn't been released on our end yet.
      • Targeting friday.
    • Wishing to have a unified to install & use Nix in a container.
  • SSL / network trouble report: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/8250
    • Noticed the successful connections TLSv1.3, and so is the failing one.
    • The cipher seems good, but I'm no expert: AEAD-CHACHA20-POLY1305-SHA256
    • The connection is being aborted right away, no read succeeds.
    • The network does seem unstable, even without Nix installed...
      • they've tried so many times we'd think it'd have worked at least once by now with Nix installed.
    • Some mysterious problems with ISPs? With mobile internet, it seems to work...
      • https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/8250#issuecomment-1529842256
    • Posted some follow-up questions:
      • https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/8250#issuecomment-1542314751
    • ... otherwise out of ideas.
  • Upstreaming :elephant:
    • Logistics
      1. Fork the installer into the NixOS org.
        • https://github.com/NixOS/experimental-nix-installer
      2. Add Travis as a Maintainer on the repo. (done)
      3. Create a project on Hydra that Travis can manage.
        • https://hydra.nixos.org/project/experimental-nix-installer
        • Flakerefs:
          • Linux (MUSL): github:nixos/experimental-nix-installer#nix-installer-static
          • MacOS:github:nixos/experimental-nix-installer#nix-installer
      4. Note in the forked repo that nobody is using it, and it is the wrong place to report issues.
        • all set!

@zhaofeng:zhaofeng.liZhaofeng LiNot Steam but SteamOS. They just added a bind-mount of /nix since the root is read-only10:25:31
