 Jan Tojnar | -(š¯•‚eloĻ„)-: we have few other people working on it as well https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/cea6f61f2e31c56e3fc746231ad797436f6bbe9f/maintainers/team-list.nix#L105-L110 | 21:02:49 |

| piegames | There is, IMO. I mean we get along, but we can use any helping hand. | 22:38:57 |
| Jan Tojnar | -(š¯•‚eloĻ„)-: GNOME ecosystem is big so four people is not nearly enough, especially since they all work in free time | 22:49:18 |

| Jan Tojnar | it also builds on many other libraries (freedesktop) which is mostly maintained in a drive-by fashion and could use dedicated maintainers too | 22:51:27 |

| Jan Tojnar | piegames: I would still want to split the extensionRenames into more sections | 00:41:59 |
| Jan Tojnar | since the comment is confusing as is | 00:42:06 |
| piegames | Okay. What sections? | 00:42:14 |
| Jan Tojnar | I mean the comment about gradually automating | 00:42:34 |
| piegames | Should these sections be syntactically be represented in Nix or would some more aggressive formatting suffice? | 00:42:53 |
| Jan Tojnar | the section below it mixes already automated with the three or so manual packages | 00:43:04 |
| Jan Tojnar | just formatting and comment should be enough IMO | 00:43:20 |
| Jan Tojnar | piegames: Something like "These are manually packaged extensions that have different attribute name from the slug on the extension portal." | 00:44:01 |
| Jan Tojnar | And would drop the "gradually being replaced by automatic packaging where possible" part since it contradicts the past tense of "were manually packaged" IIUC | 00:45:33 |
| Jan Tojnar | piegames: also I am confused by paperwm | 00:52:09 |
| piegames | Same | 00:52:14 |
| Jan Tojnar | you have it in automatically packaged section but it is not on the portal? | 00:52:28 |
| Jan Tojnar | should not it be in the manual section then? | 00:52:46 |
| piegames | Yeah, I think the commit dropping the manual packaging was a mistake and should be dropped | 00:54:42 |
| piegames | It's a lot of repetitive work and I do really silly mistakes :/ | 00:55:18 |
| Jan Tojnar | well, now the rest of the code does not count with the removed packages so I would probably just reinstate the paperwm expression | 00:58:11 |
| Jan Tojnar | hopefully, that will not be too much work | 00:58:26 |
| piegames | Already pushed. I just hope I haven't forgotten any of the changes | 00:58:57 |
| Jan Tojnar | This one is still there https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/124315/files#r669203034 | 01:03:01 |
