 tomberek | baloo: preloadNSS patch is causing a DNS lookup to "this.pre-initializes...", and in some cases takes 5 seconds to timeout. (this runs even for nix --version. I've not yet fully investigated, but I am on captive portal DHCP. Otherwise a fairly normal NixOS config. | 12:37:17 |
 baloo | Ha | 13:26:29 |
| baloo | Any chance you could strace nix —version and put that on a gist for me?
With your captive portal (just to make sure) | 13:29:10 |

| baloo | this is interesting, it looks like it actually gets a response | 15:11:31 |
| baloo | but ... | 15:12:33 |

| baloo | the request id is ... wrong | 15:12:40 |
| baloo | what | 15:12:44 |
| baloo | how is that possible | 15:12:47 |
| NinjaTrappeur | The --help output of Nix 2.4 looks pretty weird WRT. colors. | 15:12:48 |
| NinjaTrappeur | IS that done on purpose or is this a config issue of the doc output? | 15:13:05 |

IS that done on purpose or is this a config issue of the doc output? I think it's fixed now | 15:13:20 |

| baloo | tomberek: the ID there should match | 15:13:45 |

IS that done on purpose or is this a config issue of the doc output? it's the default output of -Tterm for lowdown, should be documented in its man page how it works | 15:14:09 |
| sterni | for me it looks similar to yours actually | 15:14:15 |
| baloo | you sent "~\256", you received "\261\271" | 15:14:22 |

I think it's fixed now https://github.com/kristapsdz/lowdown/pull/74 | 15:14:29 |
| NinjaTrappeur | Alright. Thanks! | 15:15:03 |
| baloo | nevermind, there is actually 2 | 15:15:12 |
| tomberek | baloo: hotel portals like to hijack DNS for their initial connection and give every request a specific response to their "login page" | 15:15:18 |
| tomberek | i thought the LOCALDOMAIN would prevent this | 15:15:29 |
| baloo | LOCALDOMAIN is just here to prevent nss from using nscd | 15:15:50 |
| baloo | whenever this is present, it bypasses the local nscd cache, and just load the libnss-dns.so | 15:16:07 |
| baloo | which is what we want to achieve | 15:16:17 |
| baloo | we moved it early in the initialization because modifying the environment is not thread safe | 15:16:39 |
| tomberek | is there a faster way to error out? An invalid URL? So the library still loads, but has 0 chance to being interpreted as valid? | 15:17:03 |
| baloo | I just git cloned glibc (again) | 15:17:26 |
