@tomberek:matrix.orgtomberek sterni: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/5284 a change in behavior and then a quick change back. So it's best to not have a version bump of nixUnstable in between those points. 22:09:05

How can I get why nix store gc detects an inconsistency in db? Looks like I have a single undeletable path:

$ nix store gc
0 store paths deleted, 0.00 MiB freed
error: executing SQLite statement 'delete from ValidPaths where path = '/nix/store/2pklamh9d8x964wbawway71rks402bxr-gcc-11.1.0-lib';': constraint failed (in '/nix/var/nix/db/db.sqlite')
08:01:17
@trofi:matrix.orgtrofi Perhaps comes from the only non-cascade constraint: CREATE TABLE Refs (... foreign key (reference) references ValidPaths(id) on delete restrict ); 08:28:27

@sternenseemann:systemli.orgsterni tomberek: alright, bumped to current master 13:11:31

@trofi:matrix.orgtrofi Is there a way to encode trailing whitespace in nix.conf? nix develop -f. re2c --bash-prompt-suffix "dev> " does work from commandline, but I was not able to add it to nix.conf via bash-prompt-suffix = dev> . 09:53:48
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn trofi: I assume you tried quoting it? 11:34:14
@trofi:matrix.orgtrofi I tried as bash-prompt-suffix = "dev> " it appens it with quotes: "dev> ". Maybe there are other ways to quote it? 11:42:32
@trofi:matrix.orgtrofi man nix.conf is not very elaborate on available syntax of the file. 11:44:00
@trofi:matrix.orgtrofiLooking at https://github.com/NixOS/nix/blob/master/src/libutil/config.cc#L79-L130 all whitespace detail is ignored and is considered a token separator.11:51:18

@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn trofi: Hmm, the `\ ` probably won't work either? 09:39:41
@trofi:matrix.orgtrofi Yeah, bash-prompt-suffix = dev>\ produces "dev>" prompt :) 18:39:08
@trofi:matrix.orgtrofi Trick question: in contents addressed nix suppose you make a change that is not changing contents of a core package (say, bash). How many packages besides bash do you expect to be rebuilt on world upgrade? :) 18:42:23
@trofi:matrix.orgtrofi Looks like it's just two on my system: texlive-combined(?) and R: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/5333 21:41:40

@trofi:matrix.orgtrofi Filed https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/5333. I think inputDrvs should be somehow re-sorted in content-addressed mode. Then we would avoid rebuild of both. 09:31:44

@niksnut:matrix.orgniksnutIf there are no objections, I'd like to branch 2.4 now.12:53:34
@balsoft:balsoft.rubalsoftIf there are still known bugs that's OK I'm assuming?12:53:57
@balsoft:balsoft.rubalsoft E.g. https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/5289 12:54:13
@niksnut:matrix.orgniksnutYeah, if they're not regressions12:54:38
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa Rossisn't the musl issue a regression?14:07:06
@niksnut:matrix.orgniksnutDon't think so, since it was not part of the previous release iirc14:50:21
@niksnut:matrix.orgniksnutBut it would be great if somebody can look into it14:50:32
@balsoft:balsoft.rubalsoft While you're here sometimes I'm not getting any output even with -L on nix (Nix) 2.4pre20211001_4f49615 (and also I'm not getting the list of all derivation that failed), and it's a bit painful to reproduce. Is this a known bug that was fixed in the meantime? 14:51:33
@balsoft:balsoft.rubalsoftI would update and try to check on master, but I can't quite figure out when it happens14:51:46
