| adamcstephens | sigh | 17:53:59 |
| adamcstephens | i follow the image failures, but this is the first time we've triggered this test job failure. which unfortunately is mixed with all images so can't be tracked by rss | 17:55:32 |

| hexa | amazing, how as a maintainer you find out via the forums | 17:57:41 |
| hexa | and only after removal | 17:57:51 |
| adamcstephens | i've silently complained about this "publish within 10 days or your images are gone" to myself before | 17:58:28 |
| adamcstephens | e.g. when the downloads were getting blocked by hydra | 17:58:53 |
| Tom | Yeah, that's like an order of magnitude too low | 18:08:28 |

| adamcstephens | oh, fun. the 25.11 images having been passing because they're unaffected by that issue. but they got purged anyway | 18:43:28 |
| adamcstephens | this is the offending PR https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/496852 | 18:56:25 |
| adamcstephens | i did approve it, but we also don't test the channel stuff currently since it makes iteration on the incus tests very slow, so it wasn't caught by the tests | 18:57:17 |
| adamcstephens | typical symlink args gotcha | 19:32:18 |
