@lovesegfault:matrix.orglovesegfaultBut did not get it17:36:51
@lovesegfault:matrix.orglovesegfaultI'll do a pass of the changes since 2.32 and try to remedy this, but maybe we ought to have some kind of CI check for this17:37:32
@lovesegfault:matrix.orglovesegfaultOne of those where you can post a comment to disable the behavior whenever work actually doesn't need rl-notes17:37:55
@roberthensing:matrix.orgRobert Hensing (roberth)got annoyed with "darwin" linux-builder today; opened https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/1447521:29:50
@roberthensing:matrix.orgRobert Hensing (roberth)I don't know if anyone feels very attached to direct file system access, but it seems like a bad default choice, and not something that's even used very often (?)21:30:29
@roberthensing:matrix.orgRobert Hensing (roberth)anyway, making such a change early on in the 26.05 cycle seems like a good idea if you want to21:31:04
@roberthensing:matrix.orgRobert Hensing (roberth)I don't think it improves linux-builder anytime soon, but it seems like a nice cleanup to me21:31:30
@roberthensing:matrix.orgRobert Hensing (roberth) John Ericson: any reason not to merge https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/14469#pullrequestreview-3417559764? 21:37:20

@lovesegfault:matrix.orglovesegfault Robert Hensing (roberth): I was thinking about the ulimit stuff. What if we added a test envvar that makes nix hard-error when it fails to set ulimit, and then used that for the tests that currently fail without it to be skipped? 01:44:23
@roberthensing:matrix.orgRobert Hensing (roberth)In this case, such a solution would have caused all macOS users to silently pass all the language tests. Not great DX10:28:58

John Ericson: any reason not to merge https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/14469#pullrequestreview-3417559764?
No reason, but it's failing CI right now so we can't, right?

@roberthensing:matrix.orgRobert Hensing (roberth) John Ericson: I figured I'd hang out, https://jitsi.lassul.us/nix-maintainers 20:08:36
@roberthensing:matrix.orgRobert Hensing (roberth)mschwaig is also there!20:08:49
@tomberek:matrix.orgtomberek fzakaria: Can you re-structure the Kaitai checks such that it is not included into the default devshell? 20:49:28
@fzakaria:one.ems.hostfzakariacan you clarify & why ?22:34:58
@fzakaria:one.ems.hostfzakariaI structured it like the JSON-schema checks22:35:07
@fzakaria:one.ems.hostfzakaria(just want to make sure I understand the change to be done)22:36:03
@tomberek:matrix.orgtomberekThe desired outcome is that the default devShell does not require the JDK.23:13:07

@roberthensing:matrix.orgRobert Hensing (roberth)Ok to migrate most error trace tests to functional characterization tests? https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/1450023:46:36

@niksnut:matrix.orgEelco

Hm, what happened with debug info in the Nix dev shell?

$ gdb --args nix
(gdb) b main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x380090
(gdb) r
(gdb) bt
#0  0x0000000000380090 in main ()

whereas on 2.32 we get:

(gdb) b main
Breakpoint 1 at 0x385040: file ../src/nix/main.cc, line 572.
(gdb) r
(gdb) bt
#0  main (argc=1, argv=0x7fffffff2598) at ../src/nix/main.cc:572

@joerg:thalheim.ioMic92Seems to be in gcc only? nix-util-env % file src/libutil/libnixutil.so.2.33.0.p/hash.cc.o src/libutil/libnixutil.so.2.33.0.p/hash.cc.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), with debug_info, not stripped using nix develop .#native-clangStdenv18:58:58
@joerg:thalheim.ioMic92seems fine but with gcc stdenv it's no debug symbols18:59:14
@joerg:thalheim.ioMic92use flake .#native-stdenv also seems to be fine19:00:28
@joerg:thalheim.ioMic92mhm. normal stdenv is also fine19:01:48
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) separateDebugInfo is on regardless 19:04:24
