How would that even work when an extension requires building? Does not buildGnomeExtension just unpack a tarball?
You build a tarball as would be uploaded to extensions.gnome.org and then pass it as source to buildGnomeExtension. It then takes care for you of putting everything into place and fixing the dependencies and stuff. The idea is that we can then have patches etc. in extension-overrides.nix, which means less copying stuff around when extensions switch between manually packaged or not (e.g. due to early support for the next Gnome version)
22:47:32
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan TojnarI still find patching the build output more annoying then patching the source22:51:26
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan TojnarI would rather be working with upstream to standardize dependency metadata to make extension builds reproducible and then we would not need to use pre-built extensions at all22:52:22
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarbut I probably will not ever find time to work on that22:52:44

I know the discussed plans about standardizing extension sources (IIRC by forcing them to create a GitLab repo in some format per extension), not sure what's the state of that
22:57:06
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnaryeah, I vaguely recall that, that would be ideal22:58:15
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar * yeah, I vaguely recall that, that would be cool23:02:34

Isn't this a repeat of https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/244742

I see, I did not find this in my search.

Any work around for these issues?

BTW for large upgrades I'd be careful that (1) you reboot and (2) don't use opengl-using apps from very far away nixpkgs version (than your OS).
I did (1). As for (2) I don't know such applications since I use the most up-to-date versions

@adham-omran:matrix.org@adham-omran:matrix.orgAlso does this happen on other GNOME distros? (e.g. Fedora)16:28:41

@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar adham: it is unrelated to GNOME update, it was happening even before GNOME was bumped. And yes, it is distro independent. 10:08:03

I switched to KDE and GIMP works again
