I build configured packages in plan.json and put them into the package db by using ghcWithPackage.
Is is safe way to do it? Do we have a more lower level function to build package db?

 Wolfgang Walther | We had planned to look at Template Haskell in pkgsStatic for this release cycle and I feel that we really shouldn't push this out much further. The gap between pkgsStatic with GHC 9.4 and default with GHC 9.10 is widening now. I think we should discuss how to proceed here first, before deciding on whether we have any blockers or not. | 07:46:43 |
 maralorn | I just tried to run nixpkgs-review unix2dos PR and got 23k builds. I feel like I am holding it wrong. | 08:17:58 |
 Puna | if you're using local evaluation to get the list of rebuilds, try applying this patch: https://github.com/Mic92/nixpkgs-review/commit/558b6d4da3032bb43c396d6042c41681ac2b9408 | 08:22:09 |
 sterni | maralorn: sounds about right | 08:23:02 |
| maralorn | Okay. I mean, I don’t think we can realistically hold-up the release so this would be more like setting ourselves a deadline. I have no stakes in pkgsStatic I don’t know much about the current problem and I don’t use it. But if there is a way forward to fix it I would of course like that to happen. | 08:23:52 |
| maralorn | I see. Then I was just … naive. | 08:24:05 |
