| Bonus | Hello, could someone point me in the right direction here: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/15131#issuecomment-3901665950 | 01:05:48 |
 eveeifyeve | Is this for msys2 mingw? | 02:19:04 |
| eveeifyeve | Because I am happy to look at it, once you have pushed the code, tonight as I am currently in my lunch break at school. | 02:19:34 |
 puffnfresh | yeah that's already on master, and I just noticed I posted in the wrong room, was meant for #windows:nixos.org | 02:25:41 |

 pveierland | When using nix eval --eval-store /some/path - will any GC nominally be involved such that GC roots are still important - or would the eval store normally not be GCd? | 01:26:39 |

 ysndr | When using a shell with a chroot store, it seems we’re loosing some uid information preventing eg sudo from working properly:
nix shell nixpkgs#hello --store ./test -c sudo whoami
sudo: /usr/bin/sudo must be owned by uid 0 and have the setuid bit set
I also noticed that using —store inside a chroot shell isn’t working either fwiw and am trying to connect the dots here | 17:45:17 |

| Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | worth -> with | 17:49:51 |
| Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | The mounts there are quite messed up probably | 17:50:58 |
| Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | I’m no Linux guru though and haven’t looked at that code too closely, so I’m not sure how to go about fixing it. I think there was a fixme about using overlayfs for the relocated store IIRC | 17:53:00 |
| ysndr | Yea it’s user / mount namespace all the way.
At least root seems to not be mapper correctly (sudo is owned by nobody, as opposed to root) | 17:57:42 |

| Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | Ah do we not set up a proper uid_map? | 18:07:34 |
