@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunat As a compromise for the hash attribute I had proposed https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/199660 but got no reaction. 18:27:23

@hexa:lossy.networkhexathat's draft state for you 😄 18:28:18
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatI linked it from a heavily discussed RFC IIRC.18:29:08
@hexa:lossy.networkhexafrom which I probably unsubscribed because of all the noise? 😄 18:33:43

In reply to @vcunat:matrix.org
The updater could convert it e.g. by calling nix hash but why not just use it as it is?
he just submitted a PR for that
18:37:02
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatI'd personally prefer to keep the strings exactly the same as from upstream, which is why I had suggested that PR.18:38:34
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatBut it's not like such a policy can be done just by one person or two.18:38:58
@hexa:lossy.networkhexathere is no policy, so we're open to accept or reject such changes as maintainers of the package19:02:43
@hexa:lossy.networkhexawe're even arguging for why it should be kept that way19:03:04
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunat For the fetchurl change I'd want wider consensus, at least. 19:15:18

@nbp:mozilla.orgnbp“[…] heads-up about an upcoming change in 119 […] (unshipping plugin-container)”09:22:52
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatWas that for plugins? I thought those aren't a thing for years.09:24:47
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbpwhich is probably the reason for unshipping.09:25:28
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbpthe person who posted this message internally was looking for communication channels to linux distribution, such as Ubuntu, I figured I should forward it here.09:26:40
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatOK. Then noone will notice a difference, I hope.09:27:06

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I'm using the packages from pkgs.nur.repos.rycee.firefox-addons via the NUR overlay, and rebuilding has been giving me an error like this for some time now:


Package ‘firemonkey-2.72’ in /nix/store/rx9xdvi39lg6rnxs577rwv3v4snif3xa-source/pkgs/firefox-addons/generated-firefox-addons.nix:1978 has an invalid meta attrset:
         - key 'meta.mozPermissions' is unrecognized; expected one of:
         ['available', 'badPlatforms' ... 'version' ], refusing to evaluate.

20:09:01
@lehmanator:gnulinux.clubSam Lehman

I checked flake.lock and my NUR input seems to be on the latest revision, so what could be preventing my NUR packages from not matching the latest from rycee's repo that define meta.mozPermissions for the firefox addons?

20:12:25
@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatTo me that sounds more like question for rycee.20:42:53
