 @pkolloch:matrix.org | Heyo! What is the purpose of nixpkgs.lib? | 08:22:40 |
 axel 🦀 | Based on a quick glance it looks like it holds all the nixpkgs library functions | 08:25:04 |
| axel 🦀 | These things: https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/stable/#sec-functions-library | 08:25:40 |
| @pkolloch:matrix.org | Ah, so if you want the lib without the packages, this is a smaller alternative. | 08:25:56 |

Ah, so if you want the lib without the packages, this is a smaller alternative. I think that's the case, yes. | 08:26:56 |
| axel 🦀 | the lib directory has a README that explains stuff a little | 08:27:11 |
| @pkolloch:matrix.org | I do know about the nixpkgs lib (but you can't know that so thank you), I was mostly thinking about what this gives you over just using the regular nixpkgs. | 08:36:34 |
| axel 🦀 | Ah 😄 | 08:38:01 |
| axel 🦀 | I'm not 100% sure either because it looks like the nixpkgs repo has it's own lib directory with the same stuff in it | 08:39:23 |
 adisbladis | The point is that it's smaller than a full nixpkgs copy | 08:41:19 |

 matthewcroughan | has anybody got an x86 machine with a 2TB disk I can thrash for a day? | 18:11:28 |

| matthewcroughan | I want to test my derivation which automates macOS installation makeDarwinImage 32 times, at a time. The derivation uses 1 core, 1 thread, 50G of disk space and takes 30 minutes. | 18:12:06 |

 Gaétan Lepage | Hi Matthew,
Yes I can share mine :) | 18:23:05 |
| Gaétan Lepage | It is not nixOS though (Ubuntu + nix installed, 2TB disk dedicated to /nix/store) | 18:23:28 |

It is not nixOS though (Ubuntu + nix installed, 2TB disk dedicated to /nix/store) that could work, I'll ping tomorrow :D | 01:32:53 |

| Gaétan Lepage | Do you know if the aarch64-build-box is still maintained ?
I made a PR to grant access but haven't got any answer :/ | 09:39:50 |
 Mic92 | glepage: not so much. But it would be good if you could get in touch with the nixos infra team. | 10:03:10 |
| Mic92 | we as the nix-community admins currently don't have control over the deployment. | 10:03:27 |

| Mic92 | graham used to maintain this, but he has other stuff to do these days . | 10:04:12 |

| Gaétan Lepage | Ok, thank you for your answer :)
Is there a matrix room (or email address) where I could get in touch with the infra team ? | 10:09:23 |
