@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium)2.32 bump in 25.11 https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/49482922:36:42
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) Jens Petersen: Artemis Tosini (NixOS) and John Ericson have put significant effort into getting multiuser installs working working without requiring root for 2.34. It works by running the daemon in an unprivilidged userns with subuid/subgid mappings for build users. Would that be something that fedora packaging would be interested in? 22:43:49
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium)Might still be rough around the edges, but our test suite passes with that setup in nixos tests https://github.com/NixOS/nix/blob/master/tests/nixos/functional/unprivileged-daemon.nix22:48:19

@foolnotion:matrix.orgBogdan Burlacu joined the room.06:44:11
@juhp:matrix.orgJens Petersen Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium): Oh wow, fascinating, for sure! I probably need to start looking at build 2.33 - needs aws-crt-cpp I think 12:04:30
@juhp:matrix.orgJens PetersenWill have to give it a try12:05:53
@juhp:matrix.orgJens Petersen * Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium): Oh wow, fascinating, for sure! I probably need to start looking at building 2.33 - needs aws-crt-cpp I think 12:06:07
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium)Should be easier than aws-sdk-cpp, aws-crt-cpp is much lighter weight dep and should already be included in the aws-sdk12:06:53
@juhp:matrix.orgJens PetersenOkay - we don't have aws-sdk in fedora πŸ™ƒ12:09:32
@juhp:matrix.orgJens Petersen* Okay - we don't have aws-sdk in fedora πŸ™ƒ afaik12:09:42
@juhp:matrix.orgJens PetersenAnyway first I should probably build 2.32.6 :-)12:10:03
@juhp:matrix.orgJens PetersenSeems a rather long list of deps - wish they would bootstrap aws-crt-cpp... 😿12:51:08
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium)FWIW s3 dep is optional - only needed for sigv4 auth12:56:38
@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧Or ignore it for now, it's not that important for the start12:56:53
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium)If you were not building 2.31 with aws-sdk then crt-cpp is not necessary too12:58:27
@juhp:matrix.orgJens Petersen Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium): ah okay - it is optional - let me check how to turn it off if needed, thanks 13:19:01
@juhp:matrix.orgJens Petersen * Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium): ah okay - is it optional - let me check how to turn it off if needed, thanks 13:19:10
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) I think we have it set up as meson feature that gets auto disabled if the dep isn’t found 13:19:55
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium)libstore:aws-s3-auth or something13:20:31
@juhp:matrix.orgJens PetersenOkay cool got past that, now at jv13:31:43
@juhp:matrix.orgJens Petersen * Okay cool got past that, now at jv
edit: okay I turned off two checks and now seems to be building

@eveeifyeve:matrix.orgeveeifyeve If anyone has like 2 secs, could someone please kindly review https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/15365? It's a simple pr that adds a shortname to --bundler for the nix bundle command. 06:58:06
