@niksnut:matrix.orgniksnut There is basically no reason anymore to run make, just use make install. This is because the tests require an installed package. 11:02:22
@pamplemouss_:matrix.orgpamplemousseShould this be reflected in https://hydra.nixos.org/build/144378897/download/2/manual/contributing/hacking.html ?15:31:28

And also:

no reason anymore
I wonder if my use case is not one such reason...
I want to produce binaries, that use customized (instrumented) version of the different libraries.

Iโ€™d rather make a fully different build with different configure flags for that. That would make things more robust

I want to imporve nix registry slightly:

  1. Add --registry flag to select the registry file to manipulate (instead of $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nix/registry.json)
  2. Add an optional second argument to nix registry pin that would accept a flake URI to pin the flake to, instead of taking it from the global registry.

This will make nix registry actually useful for managing custom registries.

12:48:24
@balsoft:balsoft.rubalsoft Also, I want to add the ability to mark registry entries as "flake": false to make custom registries even more useful. 12:48:51
@balsoft:balsoft.rubalsoftI'm already working on both, but if you have any suggestions on how to improve this, please share them rightaway12:49:09
@cw:kernelpanic.cafeRev. CornWallace III (novus ordo seclorum) changed their display name from cw (28 cycles) to cw (Vi/Vim).16:27:54
@balsoft:balsoft.rubalsoft Here we go for the first part: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/4968 19:22:34

Disregard this, I see why it's not really idiomatic.
19:31:46
@balsoft:balsoft.rubalsoftStill, a shame it's not possible to do this :/19:31:54
@balsoft:balsoft.rubalsoft Wait, why doesn't nixConfig.flake-registry work? 20:02:46
@balsoft:balsoft.rubalsoft Aha, ok, I think it's because the config is applied after the inputs are resolved 21:01:41
@balsoft:balsoft.rubalsoft Yep, I stuck an apply in there and it seemed to work 21:07:11
@balsoft:balsoft.rubalsoftDon't really like this though21:07:19

@balsoft:balsoft.rubalsoft Is there any way to get at least https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/4969 merged? I have tested it on multi-user and single-user systems, not sure what else to do 13:33:58

(it's a show-stopper for usable custom registries)
