I though that would be a game changer, but... It's not. Has upstream confirmed they intend to support 18+ soon? You can still use codeserver, it's just gonna be marked insecure. Hydra is even still building it | 14:49:19 |
| Pol | When a derivation requires an insecure dependency, is it also marked insecure ? | 14:50:31 |
| Pol | Since openvscode-server and code-server both relies on VSCode, and since VScode doesn't support Node JS 18 yet, ... it's impossible to use Node JS 18 with them. | 14:52:24 |
| Pol | * Since openvscode-server and code-server both inherit the VSCode source code, and since VScode doesn't support Node JS 18 yet, ... it's impossible to use Node JS 18 with them. | 14:52:47 |

When a derivation requires an insecure dependency, is it also marked insecure ? Not exactly but it won't eval unless insecure packages are allowed | 14:52:55 |

Since openvscode-server and code-server both relies on VSCode, and since VScode doesn't support Node JS 18 yet, ... it's impossible to use Node JS 18 with them. Yes, you can use nodejs 16 with them? | 14:53:04 |
| Pol | We can only use Node JS 16 with them. | 14:53:17 |
| Lily Foster | I'm not sure I'm understanding then. Is it not working with 16 right now? | 14:53:39 |
| Lily Foster | (Happy to help if you're getting problems with it) | 14:53:50 |
| Pol | It is currently :) | 14:53:55 |
| Lily Foster | Did upstream say when they plan to support 18+? | 14:54:17 |
| Pol | Yes, let me find the PRs... | 14:54:24 |
| Pol | The one for coder/code-server: https://github.com/coder/code-server/issues/6230 | 14:54:54 |
| Lily Foster | (The whole openssl 1.1.1 deprecation causing node 16 to be EOL early is pretty unfortunate) | 14:54:55 |
| Pol | If you want to help, it's very welcome, especially on this PR (not related to the upgrade of NodeJS but code-server itself): https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/234289 | 14:55:38 |
| Lily Foster | Request my review on that one too and I'll get to it soon | 14:56:01 |
| Pol | Let me know also if there is something to fix on openvscode-server and code-server | 14:56:04 |
 Emma [it/its] | Lily Foster do you know if there's any news on merging this? https://github.com/lilyinstarlight/nixpkgs/tree/unheck/nodejs | 23:28:33 |
| Emma [it/its] | guessing it's still considered WIP? | 23:29:02 |

guessing it's still considered WIP? I should delete that branch. It's all been merged to master and release-23.05 now :) | 00:04:45 |
| Emma [it/its] | oh! | 00:04:57 |
| Lily Foster | Apologies for not remembering to notify you | 00:05:11 |
| Emma [it/its] | its alright, happens :p | 00:05:21 |
| Emma [it/its] | im guessing that means unstable too | 00:05:44 |
| Lily Foster | Yep | 00:06:25 |
| Emma [it/its] | neat :) | 00:07:01 |
| Emma [it/its] | though i did update and it seems my build broke | 00:09:07 |
| Emma [it/its] | (update to latest commit on that branch that is) | 00:09:19 |
| Emma [it/its] | something couldnt find script "" or something, ill have to wait for it to re-pull packages | 00:10:28 |
