 Martin Schwaighofer | Why do I see this difference between the builders of the same unresolved and resolved content-addressed derivation? 🤔

 Robert Hensing (roberth) | I haven't found time to look into this properly, whether this is a bug or a missing feature, or both. The main constraint for closureInfo etc, is that the info needs to be reproducible, so for example no signatures or other mutable store metadata. ca:fixed: seems like something that should be possible to include | 14:08:20 |
| Robert Hensing (roberth) | The --load-db format has come up before. It is entirely forward-incompatible, so we may need to introduce any additions as a new format | 14:09:42 |

The --load-db format has come up before. It is entirely forward-incompatible, so we may need to introduce any additions as a new format Glancing at the load db there are signs the signature is there; is it just not being imported properly, I wonder 🤔 | 14:39:37 |
 John Ericson | emily ElvishJerricco OK we discussed a bunch and we're liking the sort of compromise you all proposed | 20:30:03 |
| John Ericson | 2.28 in 25.05 has Mic92's combo build (or something like it) | 20:30:27 |
| John Ericson | 2.28 after 25.05 is componentized | 20:30:36 |
| John Ericson | 2.29 in all branches has componentized (2.29 is very unimportant on 25.05 except for new version dogfooders) | 20:31:03 |
| John Ericson | Also when we re-introduce nix git, we should use the componentized version for that | 20:32:23 |
| John Ericson | how does that sound? | 20:32:27 |
| John Ericson | I would like to merge Robert Hensing (roberth)'s open PR right away, for sake of the newer versions and git, and also because I like how it makes a package set for the dependencies, even with the monolithic package for Nix itself | 20:33:19 |
| John Ericson | Also, since you two (and others) have such strong opinions about this, it would be great if you signed yourselves up as maintainers in Nixpkgs for this :D | 20:35:00 |
| John Ericson | especially because, as ElvishJerricco mentioned, actually the mkMesonPackage stuff and whatnot really ought to not be Nix-specific, but reused for other things like (potentially) systemd | 20:35:32 |
 emily | SGTM, especially if we can get a componentized-compatible overrides interface for patching/build flags/env.NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE on the monolithic one | 20:40:43 |
| emily | sorry, I definitely do not have the time and do not feel I understand the packaging well enough to :( | 20:41:03 |
