 K900 | I mean source built games can be patched | 08:17:02 |
| K900 | It's the binaries that are worrying | 08:17:08 |
| K900 | But like, we have the tools | 08:17:15 |
| K900 | We can always use the tools | 08:17:19 |
 emily | which doesn't solve the problem of wanting to get off time32 + ino32 so things stop breaking :) | 08:31:44 |
| emily | however I think it's probably true that old binary games are not super likely to work patchelfed to use our stuff anyway for the most part | 08:31:58 |
| K900 | Well we can only maintain the things we need | 08:32:00 |
| emily | I'd mainly worry about SDL1 | 08:32:07 |
| emily | sure, yeah. but that's already the state of i686-linux | 08:32:18 |
| emily | anyway I dunno it's probably fine. worth trying at least | 08:32:23 |
| emily | I don't know how many people are actually patchelfing 1999-era games to use Nixpkgs libraries to begin with. | 08:32:41 |

sure, yeah. but that's already the state of i686-linux Yes, but ino32 probably covers a lot less than like, all of Mesa oh wait fuck shit | 08:34:00 |
| K900 | Yeah ok | 08:34:16 |
| K900 | I see your point now | 08:34:22 |
|  jopejoe1 (4094@GPN23) changed their display name from jopejoe1 (4094@eh22) to jopejoe1 (4094@GPN23). | 12:06:05 |

| aleksana 🏳️⚧️ (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | This nano breakage is kinda strange | 12:18:21 |

This nano breakage is kinda strange it's updated on master | 12:28:05 |

| aleksana 🏳️⚧️ (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | stdenv team members, please see if you have any objection on adopting orphaned stdenv dependencies:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/416200 | 16:48:10 |
 Randy Eckenrode | Is this Linux-only, or are we considering other stdenvs (like Darwin) as well? | 17:25:32 |

Is this Linux-only, or are we considering other stdenvs (like Darwin) as well? The list is linux only | 17:28:37 |
| Randy Eckenrode | In reply to @aleksana:mozilla.org
The list is linux only My question was more about scope. Is reviewing other platforms in scope, or should that be a separate issue? | 17:30:40 |
| Randy Eckenrode | If someone later wants to take over one if these packages, would the stdenv team be dropped from them? | 17:31:17 |

My question was more about scope. Is reviewing other platforms in scope, or should that be a separate issue? You mean reviewing a package that builds on both linux and darwin? | 17:32:47 |
| Randy Eckenrode | In reply to @aleksana:mozilla.org
You mean reviewing a package that builds on both linux and darwin? Yeah, to see if there are other unmaintained packages in the major platform bootstraps. | 17:33:36 |
| aleksana 🏳️⚧️ (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | In reply to @reckenrode:matrix.org
Yeah, to see if there are other unmaintained packages in the major platform bootstraps. It's up to them to decide. | 17:34:16 |
| aleksana 🏳️⚧️ (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | Currently I just want to reduce this kind of warning which is not actionable enough for ordinary users | 17:34:56 |
| aleksana 🏳️⚧️ (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | In reply to @reckenrode:matrix.org
If someone later wants to take over one if these packages, would the stdenv team be dropped from them? Also the same | 17:35:40 |
| aleksana 🏳️⚧️ (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | We probably don't want to see someone who just added themselves to the maintainer list take up maintenance work, because merging r-ryantm unconditionally may still cause some chaos | 17:37:38 |
 Alyssa Ross | TBH you may be overestimating how much care goes into committer-merged updates to stdenv dependencies 😛 | 17:40:02 |
