 emily | that said – given how many other distros split up their Boost packages, are there really that many things that can't handle multiple prefixes? if nothing else I suppose we'll be able to pick patches from other distros? | 13:24:22 |
 tobim | Other distros dodge that problem by using a single global prefix. | 14:05:34 |
| tobim | The PR above already adds a symlink-joined view on a combined boost and boost-python I supposed that pattern can just be extended for the other compiled boost libs as well. We can even assign the boost top-level attribute name to that derivation so client code keeps working. Then we can gradually improve packages that can handle the more fine-grained attributes. | 14:09:58 |
 ElvishJerricco | Gauging interest: https://github.com/ElvishJerricco/nix/commit/46709106ab0dd1898858c236e6078676e1776db3
I think this is the best way to get fsverity enabled for secure boot style stuff: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/compare/master...ElvishJerricco:nixpkgs:push-pvsmvszsxvkq
Wondering if the Nix change would be accepted upstream and what else needs to be done in it. | 16:53:27 |

 John Ericson | I have been trying to rip apart derivation goal somwhat and....mannnnnnn | 22:10:29 |

 jade_ | yeah it's bad | 01:20:04 |
| jade_ | it's really really bad | 01:20:07 |
| jade_ | the approach we're likely to take is to have a zygote process for the sandbox which gets the state serialized. this also means it will be easier to replace local-derivation-goal.cc with rust because it suddenly becomes self-contained. | 01:21:01 |
| atoix | Has anyone been using uv2nix for packaging Python apps? I tried replacing poetry2nix with uv2nix and cant get it to work. | 12:16:06 |

| John Ericson | that sounds good, but is also funny because I was thinking about the opposite --- leaving the sandboxing code in C++ and the nuking all the other C++ it doesn't need | 21:01:00 |

| John Ericson | since I have pinged you both about the goal reworking | 21:02:05 |
