@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilI've got a Nix PR that I think is ready to be merged: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/479017:12:26
1 Jun 2021
@0x4a6f:matrix.org[0x4A6F] changed their display name from 0x4A6F to [0x4A6F].06:36:27

In reply to @rgrunbla:matrix.org
hey Regnat , the CA experimental features actually fix the compilation, but it does not really work when you use it as the input for another flakes, e.g https://0x0.st/-2Ic.txt
Yes, as I said, this isn’t really supposed to work 🙃

@theophane:hufschmitt.netRegnat I’m not sure why you need hello to be a fixed-output derivation tbh 07:25:31

@theophane:hufschmitt.netRegnatUgh that’s ugly ☹️08:27:20
@theophane:hufschmitt.netRegnat If all you want is to have all the submodules fetched, maybe you can remove the build artifacts that have a self-ref in the postBuild 08:28:02

@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa Ross @eelco:nixos.org do you know why i*86 platforms are forced to i686 for the Nix system in configure.ac? 19:26:04
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa Rossin #exotic:nixos.org we're wondering what the way to go would be for somebody to build e.g. i486 packages19:26:43
@niksnut:matrix.orgniksnutDunno, it has been that way for a long time. Probably to avoid getting i786 or whatever.20:11:10
@niksnut:matrix.orgniksnut

Oh, here is the explanation:

commit 966bd9d19fb43b6a6022572eb7d80c1e03bfaf3e
Author: Eelco Dolstra <e.dolstra@tudelft.nl>
Date:   Fri Aug 13 09:57:51 2004 +0000

    * WTF?  More canonical system name problems ("athlon-linux" instead of
      "i686-linux").

@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa Rossah great, thanks20:19:29
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa RossI only managed to find the commit from Ludo in 2011 that just said "it's always been this way"20:19:42

@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar Did something change regarding the cycle detection? Now I am getting “error: cycle detected in build of … in the references of output 'lib' from output 'jack'” and the output paths for the cyclic outputs are not in the store, not even with --keep-failed 01:38:50
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar with stable Nix, the output paths are listed in the error message (so I do not have to fish for them in the build log) and they exist even without --keep-failed 01:40:46
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa Rossniksnut: while you're merging Nix PRs, any thoughts on https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/4773? :)11:35:55
@niksnut:matrix.orgniksnutDoes that work with lowdown?11:36:49
@sternenseemann:systemli.orgsterni (he/him) niksnut: https://kristaps.bsd.lv/lowdown/lowdown.3.html#LOWDOWN_DEFLIST 11:37:32
@sternenseemann:systemli.orgsterni (he/him) seems like you've already turned it on in libcmd/markdown.cc 11:38:24
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa Rossoh, do they end up in a man page?11:39:32
@sternenseemann:systemli.orgsterni (he/him) Alyssa Ross: :doc on the repl is rendered with lowdown's term rendering target 11:40:27
