 John Ericson | Robert Hensing (roberth): https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/390479 can we merge this manual backport of your PR to 24.11? | 15:42:50 |
 Robert Hensing (roberth) | I would think so, yeah | 15:43:34 |
| John Ericson | OK thanks | 15:45:12 |
 emily | pkgsStatic.nixVersions.nix_2_26 is still broken | 15:57:48 |
| emily | (at eval time) | 15:58:09 |
| John Ericson | emily: wait is that new in this PR? | 16:15:18 |
| emily | no, I reported it here before | 16:16:34 |
| emily | the complicated splicing stuff that I don't understand why it's there is broken | 16:16:47 |
| John Ericson | Eelco: So the reason it is not a CanonPath is the symlink target and "location the source tree is for symlink resolution purposes" is an OS path | 16:17:02 |
| John Ericson | even more confusing, in the case of remote file systems it might be an OS path of another operating system | 16:17:33 |
| John Ericson | I am wary of canonicalizing because we don't want a situation where the symlink points outside the source tree, but then another symlink points back inside, to allow the symlink to be resolved | 16:18:33 |
| John Ericson | rather as soon as any intermediate encountered during symlink resolution leaves the source tree, it's game over | 16:19:30 |
| John Ericson | Eelco: Also happy with https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/12658 now? | 17:18:53 |
| emily | (I was just mentioning it wrt bumping nixVersions.latest) | 17:36:36 |
| emily | (and that more fixes will need backporting later) | 17:36:45 |
 aidetechbot | oh woops sorry | 22:57:37 |

 trofi | Any chance to merge https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/12105? it's 3 months old. | 07:27:11 |
| Robert Hensing (roberth) | It seems that an assertion is failing; see comment | 12:40:39 |

| John Ericson | Las: I feel like we should merge my commits prior to my last one splitting the files, and then do your commits | 18:17:50 |
| John Ericson | Robert Hensing (roberth): have any opinions on that? | 18:18:01 |
 Las | In reply to @Ericson2314:matrix.org
Las: I feel like we should merge my commits prior to my last one splitting the files, and then do your commits From your PR or the restricted store one or? | 18:19:00 |
| John Ericson | Las: from the big one (though yes that includes restricted store) | 18:19:17 |
| Las | My PR has the benefit of being simple, but it’s also simpler to rebase possibly | 18:19:39 |
| Las | Maybe smaller PR then with your changes? Which would include what! | 18:19:57 |
