maralorn | In reply to @sternenseemann:systemli.org hypothetically as long as cachix is built, nixpkgs-unstable could advance without all of haskellPackages being built No | 13:57:33 |
sterni (he/him) | hmm, okay then you are right | 13:57:57 |
sterni (he/him) | nice that the wiki documents this I skimmed through a perl script in nix-channel-scripts earlier, but most have overlooked that check | 13:58:25 |
maralorn | Sorry for being so insistent on this. But I think having that fact straight is helpful.^^ | 13:59:10 |
sterni (he/him) | but what are you trying to argue for? this means that nixpkgs-unstable blocks on all of haskellPackages being rebuilt, so this makes my argument even stronger | 13:59:19 |
sterni (he/him) | remember, rebuilds that would involve rebuilding all of haskellPackages don't happen on master, they go via staging | 13:59:37 |
maralorn | I am not arguing for anything. I agree with your conclusion. I just wanted that we agree on the facts. | 13:59:54 |
sterni (he/him) | oh all right | 14:00:01 |
maralorn | Is there a somehow predictable schedule to the staging-next merges? maybe we can try to avoid them? | 14:07:55 |
sterni (he/him) | The nixpkgs manual says on staging-next
Stabilize it for a few days and then merge into master.
| 14:13:15 |
sterni (he/him) | so it is merged when it's deemed stable enough roughly | 14:13:27 |
sterni (he/him) | I guess it takes ~ a week or so usually? | 14:13:54 |

cdepillabout | I read through the conversation above, and it sounds like there is consensus that we merge master into haskell-updates, wait for Hydra to rebuild everything, and then mergehaskell-updates into master. | 00:55:59 |
cdepillabout | Depending on how fast the rebuilds go, I might have to pass on the open haskell-updates to sterni (he/him) if the rebuilds don't finish in a day or two. | 00:57:00 |
sterni (he/him) | that's no problem | 00:57:20 |

cdepillabout | sterni (he/him): I'm going to pass the torch to you for the open haskell-updates PR. Hydra is being pretty slow with the darwin rebuilds. | 08:58:58 |
maralorn | Do we need to care about darwin rebuilds? A few weeks ago we didn‘t even have a job for it. And nixos-unstable does not wait for darwin. | 09:00:14 |
cdepillabout | That's a good point. I assumed we did, but I dunno. I don't personally care about them. | 09:03:08 |
