@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunat * We could probably backport the updates, but libpng is a staging* package. 07:42:52

@hexa:lossy.networkhexa

1.6.45 added cicp support which we use.

07:53:12
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatReleased in January.08:02:36
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunat We could drop --with-system-png on 24.11. 08:05:33
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatAt least temporarily. I see no other good way now.08:05:49
@k900:0upti.meK900 ⚡️ @colemickens https://hydra.nixos.org/build/291802248/nixlog/46/tail 08:56:11
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunat (I cancelled the trunk-combined eval. I don't expect we need all those tests on an eval that won't pass anyway.) 10:49:42
@k900:0upti.meK900 ⚡️I've bonked unstable-small to confirm release-checks work10:50:17
@naxdy:naxdy.orgNaxdy changed their profile picture.18:03:46

@k900:0upti.meK900 ⚡️ @colemickens so should we send https://github.com/nix-community/flake-firefox-nightly/pull/45 06:14:42
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbp K900: what is the issue with nixpkgs-mozilla? 10:39:45
@k900:0upti.meK900 ⚡️No particular issue, it's just ... kinda unnecessary?10:40:00
@k900:0upti.meK900 ⚡️And makes coordinating changes harder10:40:08
@k900:0upti.meK900 ⚡️Like, all we really do is override firefox-bin with a different source10:40:24
@k900:0upti.meK900 ⚡️Having to go through two layers of indirection for that feels unnecessary10:41:08
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbpWould merging the repository help?10:42:15
@k900:0upti.meK900 ⚡️Merging where?10:42:21
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbp* Would merging the repositories help?10:42:24
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbpmaking one repository with both the content of both.10:42:40
@k900:0upti.meK900 ⚡️Both what?10:43:01
@k900:0upti.meK900 ⚡️flake-firefox-nightly and nixpkgs-mozilla?10:43:08
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbpI do not care. Apart from the historical value of nixpkgs-mozilla being the first overlay.10:43:34
@k900:0upti.meK900 ⚡️There's a bunch of other stuff in nixpkgs-mozilla10:43:51
@k900:0upti.meK900 ⚡️I'm not sure where that should go10:44:02
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbpyes, such as the toolchain I am using daily to compile Firefox / SpiderMonkey locally.10:44:12
@k900:0upti.meK900 ⚡️Maybe we can move in the direction of chopping it up into multiple repos10:44:31
@k900:0upti.meK900 ⚡️Given it's basically a bunch of mostly-independent bits that were dumped into a single repo for convenience and no real other reason10:45:14
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbpthe Rust toolchain compiler, for staying up-to-date with the bleeding edge requirements from 2015, and the updates of the C++-layer translation which is also extremelly bleeding edge.10:45:18
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbpWell the convenience is being able to build Firefox from sources.10:45:48
