 void | so what to do in the meanwhile? | 13:16:36 |
| void | any ideas, in the master openssh is update but nix is still 2.17 | 13:16:50 |
| void | nix_2_17 = common {
version = "2.17.0";
hash = "sha256-QMYAkdtU+g9HlZKtoJ+AI6TbWzzovKGnPZJHfZdclc8=";
};

| void | maybe I can manually add the balsoft patch to nix | 13:17:34 |

 Jeff | if i get bored i'll probably change all my deployment.targetHost entries to add a unique prefix and the change my ssh config to add an entry to strip off the prefix and turn off the ControlMaster | 20:36:58 |
| Jeff | a bit of a hack but i think that it should work | 20:37:10 |

| rendakuenthusiast⚡️ | is this matrix room deliberately not in the nix matrix space, or is my client messed up? | 20:07:15 |

| @khalilsantana:matrix.org | Hi, is there a proper way to get colmena to nixos-rebuild --upgrade multiple hosts? I can use the exec sub-command but AFAIK that will build in every node, which seems wasteful | 03:06:51 |
 Wanja Hentze | wait, are you using channels on the hosts? | 08:30:26 |
| @khalilsantana:matrix.org | Doesn't all nixos installs use channels? (I'm a newbie, so I just looked up at the manual on how to upgrade nixos and that was one of the ways listed) | 13:10:05 |
| Wanja Hentze | No, I've never seen them used with colmena | 13:16:06 |
| Wanja Hentze | colmena evaluates the entire configuration not on the hosts but on the deploying machine | 13:16:40 |
| Wanja Hentze | you would usually pin your nixpkgs revision etc. either via flakes or some other mechanism | 13:17:03 |
| Wanja Hentze | I think it might still work if you use <nixpkgs> somewhere but it would use the channels of the deploying host, not the deployed host | 13:17:51 |
| @khalilsantana:matrix.org | I'm not using flakes as of yet, trying to keep it as simple as possible so I can actually understand it | 13:17:53 |
| Wanja Hentze | me neither btw | 13:18:05 |
| Wanja Hentze | we just have a JSON file with the git revs and such | 13:18:21 |
| Wanja Hentze | using nix-prefetch-git to pin nixpkgs | 13:18:38 |
| Wanja Hentze | very low-tech but works perfectly | 13:18:49 |
| @khalilsantana:matrix.org | hum, understood. Is there a way to at least share built packages between hosts? | 13:18:56 |
