 emily | tbh it's not easy for users to tell they're lagging behind except when they are missing some specific update :/ | 17:42:33 |
| emily | there's a lot of support requests from users in general where it later turns out they're on some months-old commit and had no idea | 17:42:49 |
 samasaur | there is a PR for GCC 15 compatibility but it just lets the linux build get farther before hitting the actual issue at hand. the linux failure has been there for a while but this darwin failure is new | 19:13:14 |
 Randy Eckenrode | Can’t Linux just use Clang instead of GCC? | 20:05:49 |
| * Randy Eckenrode looks at upstream issue. It’s a libstdc++ 15 issue? | 20:06:41 |
| samasaur | I haven't really looked into the GCC issue because it'd hit that other issue I don't understand | 20:07:06 |
| samasaur | I think the PR "solves" it (aka it gets farther and hits the other issue) | 20:07:46 |

 eveeifyeve | Does anyone know why nixpkgs-review takes a long time to eval using github eval. before it starts actually doing the work? | 03:44:54 |
 Fabián Heredia | I don't feel it takes a long time, probably close to the network requirement of a couple do en MBs of data being transfered. | 03:54:17 |

 Lun | If you accidentally try to kick off a 50k package rebuild it can oom/hang forever at that stage iirc | 04:00:35 |
 dish [Fox/It/She] | GHA has slow CPUs and low RAM | 04:00:49 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | if you're talking about nixpkgs-review-gha | 04:01:00 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | if not, then its just taking a while | 04:01:08 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | it is what it is | 04:01:13 |
 K900 | @emily have we forgot about time64 by default? | 09:26:20 |
| K900 | I lost track | 09:26:29 |
 Grimmauld (any/all) | You mean https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/420063 ? | 09:31:48 |
| K900 | Yeah | 09:32:56 |
| K900 | I'm thinking we should just send it | 09:33:22 |
| K900 | As we're early in the cycle | 09:33:36 |

| Vladimír Čunát | * (practically all linux binaries, mostly waiting on darwin) | 09:38:39 |
| Vladimír Čunát | Ah, you mean early after branching off stable NixOS. | 09:39:02 |
| K900 | Sorry | 09:39:20 |
| K900 | Release cycle | 09:39:21 |
| K900 | Yeah | 09:39:25 |
| Vladimír Čunát | I didn't realize that the rebuilds aren't very high. | 09:49:52 |
| K900 | It should only affect lib32 | 09:50:23 |
