emily | those are allowed to run right up to the line | 10:18:21 |
emily | (because we align our release cycle with theirs) | 10:18:48 |
oeti | Thanks for clarifying! that sounds less worrying now. | 10:22:13 |

vcunat | It was still pretty last-moment on some NixOS releases, if I remember correctly. | 08:59:17 |
nadir | Yes, but the PRs were much more active the last few years.
Unless they're working on it somewhere else and not pushing to the PR draft | 23:06:00 |

oeti | But I don’t get why and where it is stuck? What happens and what to do about that? Is there someone waiting for anything? What kind of help is needed/would be useful? | 08:57:46 |

emily | I expect the GNOME team has less time lately/might be a little burnt out. the noise on the PR due to it starting out as a vibe-coded branch probably hasn't helped. I believe there have been updates about what's left to do on the PR but it might require non-trivial knowledge of GNOME internals/build system and/or Nixpkgs internals to make progress on them depending on what they are | 14:25:21 |
oeti | Now it is official, Ubuntu LTS is more up to date than NixOS unstable. 🫣 | 18:29:04 |
Ainz Ooal Gown | We would love the help if anyone could offer :) | 19:24:28 |
oeti | What kind of help is currently needed? | 19:33:00 |
Ainz Ooal Gown | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/501286#issuecomment-4136179981 | 19:47:51 |
Ainz Ooal Gown | bobby found it during their testing, you can help debugging it
The PR is stale at the moment though, and whoever will pick it up (one of gnome team members hopefully) will use that fix

arcayr | is there any existing lore on systemd-userdb | 06:00:25 |
arcayr | the option exists, and it seems to tag anything above id 1000 as a "regular user". both gdm and all of the nixbld users are >30k | 06:00:48 |

arcayr | compiling the world now off that pr so i'll have a look but my knowledge of the workings here is very patchy | 06:01:38 |
