Salt | hmm, is there a good reference for how packages pass through nix generally so I can potentially avoid some of these questions?
For instance I notice that when updating extensions the bot automatically opened a backport PR, however there is a large set of updates that was merged a couple weeks ago that doesn't appear to have a PR. And I presume without the backports PR things will only be available in unstable until the next release. So what steps can be taken to open a backports PR if one wasn't automatically generated? | 23:51:12 |

ElvishJerricco | Is there a way to tell gnome to wake the screen from a udev rule? I've got a udev rule that does loginctl lock-sessions when I unplug my yubikey, but I also want it to wake the display when I plug it in. This particular machine would not be expected to be suspended. | 07:51:12 |
uep | https://nixpk.gs/pr-tracker.html is very helpful for such cases | 21:31:02 |

Jan Tojnar | yes, that is correct. I try to add labels for auto-backports when it makes sense and when someone pings me, merge PRs to stable, but otherwise I avoid stable-related stuff | 00:38:31 |
Jan Tojnar | I also usually ignore extension PRs for the same reason (testing them is time consuming) | 00:40:43 |
Jan Tojnar | I would expect some D-Bus API to work. There is SimulateUserActivity on org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver but it appears g-s-d does not implement it | 00:47:36 |
Jan Tojnar | maybe Inhibit would disable the screensaver even if already active? | 00:48:32 |
