@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonhttps://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/5650 Can someone approve this? It is basically entirely cherry-picks, so it just needs a quick glance06:33:42
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn EricsonIt is a foundation for old-client + new-daemon testing06:33:59
@roberthensing:matrix.orgroberth that seems like an internal .drvPath usage in the CLI then. I figured this might happen, but at least we were able to keep compatibility at the expression level. So basically we'd need https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/6507 or multi-output symlink farming in the everything derivation 08:44:14
@roberthensing:matrix.orgroberth We already do, but it's a package attribute containing the package set instead of a scope / package set that sits in pkgs or nixVersions or whatever. Touches on ElvishJerricco 's Monday thread. 08:48:47
@roberthensing:matrix.orgroberthI think a package with a package set on top is a decent interface. Ultimately it's the same thing though. Just a different view on the same scope or fixpoint.08:50:51
@sinan:sinanmohd.comsinan changed their profile picture.12:15:49
@pdg:matrix.org@pdg:matrix.org left the room.14:23:10
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson Robert Hensing (roberth): I am not sure it's a CLI thing, because this is a dep of the devShell in question 15:59:09
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonalso, I was able to reproduce it in the repl15:59:20
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson (by inspecting buildInputs) 15:59:29
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson where is this ElvishJerricco thread? 16:00:11
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson I am happy if I can fish out the individual libraries at the nix level 16:00:35
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonbut I was unsure how to do that16:00:39
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson I just saw the buildEnv nix combined 16:00:45
@elvishjerricco:matrix.orgElvishJerriccohttps://matrix.to/#/!VRULIdgoKmKPzJZzjj:nixos.org/$mmqRkJU3YQ_icbtXB-Z8CAkRUpjN3FnVULvXlLIyUJo?via=nixos.org&via=matrix.org&via=nixos.dev16:02:04
@elvishjerricco:matrix.orgElvishJerriccooops, replied to the wrong one. but that's the thread he mentioned16:02:45
@roberthensing:matrix.orgroberth John Ericson: are you using an alternative client without threading? I could avoid threads if needed if that avoids some confusion 16:22:45
