| Alyssa Ross | gnuradio-with-packages is still in aliases.nix, but depends on gnuradio_3_7, which was removed.

 emily | gah. should have pored over the diff more carefully. or figured out how you're meant to test aliases.nix eval | 17:31:42 |
| emily | will fix | 17:31:47 |
| Alyssa Ross | or waiting for CI :P | 17:31:53 |

| emily | (but also how do you test the latter? nixpkgs-review won't do it, right?) | 17:32:01 |

or waited for CI :P yeah, sorry :( | 17:32:08 |
| emily | I wish CI was faster so I didn't feel the need to replicate it locally all the time | 17:32:31 |

(but also how do you test the latter? nixpkgs-review won't do it, right?) No idea, although I guess I've just learned that nixpkgs-vet does it. | 17:32:33 |
| Alyssa Ross | nixpkgs-vet is fast :P | 17:32:38 |
| emily | right. not yet used to having nixpkgs-vet around | 17:33:07 |
| emily | (how come it can do eval checks so much quicker?) | 17:33:14 |
| emily | also lol at us having this expression lying around that points to a throw in the first place…

No idea, although I guess I've just learned that nixpkgs-vet does it. (the nixpkgs-vet author is for some reason opposed to having it as a first-class package in Nixpkgs, so unfortunately it is not at all convenient to run locally) | 17:34:12 |

https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/350291 ah, I was just about to do this 😅 | 17:34:25 |
| emily | I'll be more patient this time. | 17:34:34 |
| emily | I guess having aliases that point to other throwing aliases is a pretty bad antipattern since it breaks our tooling | 17:36:02 |
| emily | I've introduced some of those, I wonder if we can programmatically rule them out in future. | 17:36:13 |
| emily | Fabián Heredia: I'm thinking we should just revert and do this again if the whack-a-mole with the eval issues continues beyond another push | 17:39:56 |
| emily | I'll open a revert | 17:40:38 |
| emily | merged the revert, sorry about that. better to clean up the strays without time pressure | 17:45:02 |

merged the revert, sorry about that. better to clean up the strays without time pressure sure, no worries | 17:45:39 |

vet is happy now but we should probably wait for the whole CI 😅 | 18:00:34 |

There was a time when aliases couldn't warn not too long ago if I recall correctly Also people complaining it being too noisy in nix search | 18:07:23 |
| emily | that ship has already sailed, nix search spits out a billion warnings | 18:07:43 |
