@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius If the package set gets callPackage while taking the scope as args, you can override the packages inside of the set with a single .override call 22:14:25
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusor am I missing something?22:14:31
@roberthensing:matrix.orgRobert Hensing (roberth)We might have to do something like that if overriding is really that important22:14:37
@trofi:matrix.org@trofi:matrix.orgAh, nice. I'll give it a try.22:14:38
@roberthensing:matrix.orgRobert Hensing (roberth) Maybe nix.overrideAttrs could throw a useful error referring to a monolithic nixVersions.nix_mono package to ease the transition 22:17:07
@roberthensing:matrix.orgRobert Hensing (roberth)as well as docs that refer to it22:17:44
@elvishjerricco:matrix.orgElvishJerriccoI've thought about using it for systemd. Like if udev could go back to being a separate package, that would tremendously ease the dependency graph of nixpkgs. The tradeoffs haven't seemed worth it yet though.22:30:40
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusnikstur would be really angry for sure hahaha22:31:54
