| leona | But I guess that’s also more a culture thing | 07:01:08 |
 Vladimír Čunát | Some important tests fail on staging-next reproducibly, e.g. nixosTests.misc or others in https://hydra.nixos.org/eval/1825464 | 08:15:17 |

 K900 | Installer tests are looking like the usual bootstrap nonsense again | 08:16:22 |
| K900 | IPv6 test seem to be failing because something changed about interface names? | 08:17:48 |
| K900 | client_defaults: waiting for success: [ `ip -o -6 addr show dev eth1 scope link -tentative -temporary | wc -l` -eq 1 ]
client_global_setting # [ 11.392934] dhcpcd[1110]: ens3: adding default route via 10.0.2.2
client_defaults # Device "eth1" does not exist.

| K900 | * IPv6 test seems to be failing because something changed about interface names? | 08:17:54 |
| K900 | I wonder if misc is broken by the nspawn change | 08:20:11 |
| K900 | If it's trying to read /proc/cmdline | 08:20:16 |
 hexa | ens vs eth | 12:03:42 |
| K900 | Maybe it was racing the rename or something | 12:04:01 |
| K900 | And now it wins | 12:04:02 |

 Eli Saado | wew I've literally had this issue yesterday | 12:38:15 |
| Eli Saado | you can use udevadm test-builtin net_setup_link /sys/class/net/ens18 to debug if you have an interactive shell I guess | 12:38:55 |

 André Lima | Fix for nixosTests.misc: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/521677 | 19:25:16 |
| André Lima | Also, regarding the nixosTests.installer.simple test, I'm seeing that the installer can't resolve DNS queries. Is this normal/intended? | 21:03:49 |
| K900 | Yes | 21:04:37 |
| K900 | The installer runs fully offline | 21:04:41 |
| K900 | The idea is that everything required for the base install is on the image already | 21:04:50 |
| K900 | So things that are missing need to be added to the image | 21:04:56 |
| André Lima | Okay, thank you! | 21:07:56 |

| André Lima | I've updated this PR. It now fixes all of the nixosTests failing here: https://hydra.nixos.org/eval/1825464 | 00:48:52 |

| @marienz:matrix.org changed their display name from Marien Zwart to marienz. | 13:33:31 |
| @marienz:matrix.org | regarding the python3Packages.narwhals build failure: https://github.com/marienz/nixpkgs/commit/959bdf4b779161340a00694fd075b91fbc14dc9a makes it build (by applying three upstream commits to tests), but I'm not familiar with that package so I don't know how to test it further. Is it helpful for me to send that as a PR (and if so: directly against staging-next or some other branch first), or better to wait for the maintainer / someone else more familiar with it?
(I'm just keeping an eye on that staging-next merge because it has some other stuff I'm looking forward to)

 Grimmauld (any/all) | fixes to things regressed in a cycle go to staging-next, generally | 13:50:19 |
