 SpindleyQ | ... nope, nixpkgs was just undefined, and that's apparently the error you get. great. | 18:43:05 |
| SpindleyQ | OK, yes, it looks like the whole time, the error was triggering because I was passing things other than valid paths to imports. There were two that I modified when rewriting to use flakes - the qemu-guest.nix one (which was originally <nixpkgs/nixos/modules/profiles/qemu-guest.nix>, but I forget to add nixpkgs to specialArgs), and another one, where I thought I could pass a function directly if I had it. But I don't think that works. | 19:00:55 |
| SpindleyQ | And I guess I should be using modulesPath rather than passing in nixpkgs in specialArgs. | 19:01:12 |
| 14 Nov 2023 |
| SpindleyQ | not to continue talking to myself, but I think, based on my reading of loadModule in nixos, that you can, in fact, pass a module directly in the imports = [] list and it should work, though the stacktrace gets more cryptic since there's no name associated with the module that it tries to load | 01:20:35 |

Could be the activation script waiting on systemd-networkd-wait-online or something I discovered that the problem was that one machine out of six or so was hanging for a long time | 06:29:40 |
| rendakuenthusiast⚡️ | and I had a script that runs colmena with the --verbose flag so I only saw debug messages from all the other machines | 06:30:04 |
| rendakuenthusiast⚡️ | if I removed teh --verbose it's obvious what was going on | 06:30:20 |

| @jannik:introverts.xyz | Hi, I'm pretty new to Colmena, and I want to use it to manage multiple hosts with different versions of nixpkgs. I have defined two nixpkgs urls in my flake's inputs, and can reference them in outputs.colmena.meta.nixpkgs. But I can't find a way to define this per-host. | 10:52:51 |

 ajs124 | If I evaluate a system config and then evaluate it again right after, without any changes to its inputs (including self), shouldn't that benefit from flake eval caching? | 18:08:05 |

 hexa | hm, can I use nix-output-monitor with colmena? | 11:59:31 |
| ajs124 | there's an issue for that: https://github.com/zhaofengli/colmena/issues/129 | 12:24:38 |

| mihtig | Hi all. Anyone here used nixos-infect on a host and colmena to deploy their nix config? | 09:41:34 |
