i could do that if there were other projects that do the same thing perhaps considering it leans on other programs for everything except kde compatibility im near certain there are | 04:43:03 |
 Benedikt | Is it realistic that nixos will switch too a package per crate model like guix did? | 10:06:16 |
 K900 | It's been proposed before but it requires a huge amount of work | 10:16:00 |

 ghpzin | There might be a new problem with fetchCargoVendor - crates.io started blocking current python requests user-agent python-requests/2.33.1 that is used in fetch-cargo-vendor-util.py (because it does not set one explicitly in script):
curl -v https://crates.io/api/v1/crates/aho-corasick/1.1.4/download -L -A "python-requests/2.33.1"
< HTTP/2 403

 Alyssa Ross | should be an easy fix to set an explicit user-agent | 10:05:52 |
 hexa | this is a common courtesy as a big consumer | 10:13:22 |
| ghpzin | But that would be staging level rebuild, recent PRs touching fetch-cargo-vendor-util.py had ~28k rebuild count. | 10:13:46 |
| K900 | Yeah | 10:16:37 |
| K900 | But we should still do it | 10:16:41 |
| K900 | Because it's the right thing to do | 10:16:45 |
| hexa | the alternative is to write to help@crates.io then | 10:16:50 |

 emily | they're FODs, we should be able to avoid causing rebuilds? | 11:21:06 |
| emily | cc @tomasajt:matrix.org | 11:21:15 |
 Winter | that file is also used during builds | 11:23:06 |
| Winter | to create the final vendor directory | 11:23:13 |
| Winter | it’s not solely the fetcher | 11:23:25 |
| emily | we could make a copy for now then | 11:33:58 |
| emily | (perhaps we should split up FOD and non-FOD portions of it more) | 11:34:16 |

 Pol | There's a PR already | 12:52:32 |
| Pol | => https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/512735 | 12:53:02 |
 niklaskorz | the crates.io team has also responded to the issue yesterday and reverted the block for now, until we fixed it in nixpkgs | 13:03:42 |

|  Yves (she/they) changed their display name from Oro (any/all) to Yves (she/they). | 19:13:52 |
