 emily | I saw no security | 16:21:34 |
| emily | even in 2.14.6 | 16:21:43 |
| emily | oh it is | 16:21:49 |
| emily | fun | 16:21:49 |
| emily | I am worried that 2.14 may not get security backports for the life of the next release | 16:22:10 |
| emily | since the stepping-down maintainer has committed to fixing regressions in 2.15 for the next year but nothing beyond that | 16:22:20 |
| emily | hopefully other people will handle it | 16:22:30 |
 raitobezarius | there's another maintainer | 16:24:39 |
| emily | connor (he/him) (UTC-7): do you want to run a build of github:NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/442167/merge#cudaPackages.whatever btw? | 16:25:09 |
| emily | apparently ROCm is requiring a bit of patching | 16:25:25 |
| emily | though usually a -D is a safe fallback hack | 16:25:40 |
| emily | of course I will notice CMake changes I should have done right after merge | 16:33:12 |
 Grimmauld (any/all) | i plan on doing the 2.15.0 bump before 25.11, i don't want to repeat the backport hell we have with 2.13.8 on 25.05 rn. But that update needs more spoons than i am capable of today, so 2.14.6 is what you get for now | 16:33:46 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | okay, built libxml2, libxslt and python3.lxml, imo this is reasonable to just merge | 16:35:56 |
 Vladimír Čunát | 2.13 still got security fixes this month, so there's hope | 16:39:08 |
 K900 | Merged | 16:39:15 |
| emily | we have this in CMake
# On platforms where ps is not part of stdenv, patch the invocation of ps to use an absolute path.
| 16:39:29 |
| emily | but AFAICT ps is. not part of stdenv on Linux | 16:39:35 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | nix why-depends nixpkgs#stdenv nixpkgs#procps --derivation comes back empty... | 16:40:35 |
| emily | ok but it's just not used by CMake there if /proc exists | 16:40:38 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | anyways, nothing left from me, i won't block the next staging cycle start anymore | 16:43:19 |
 Philip Taron (UTC-8) | @emily thanks for your essay in the cmake PR. I can't commit to reviewing it today, and I trust the folks here in this channel to react if "just send it" is the determination. | 16:47:17 |
| emily | updated the hook PR with a missing Darwin fix and some tweaks | 17:12:21 |
| emily | going to try re-bootstrapping staging with it because apparently Perl might be broken | 17:12:31 |
| emily | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/444348 ? | 17:20:15 |
| emily | cc K900 Alyssa Ross | 17:20:18 |
 Alyssa Ross | already discussed | 17:20:31 |
| Alyssa Ross | i'm building | 17:20:44 |
| K900 | On Darwin? | 17:20:43 |
| Alyssa Ross | referring to the PR link, not anything Darwin | 17:21:40 |
