| In all seriousness, I'd be willing to help, but just know that it would be my first true packaging project. | 03:08:13 | |
| Worry not, the nix community is helpful | 09:27:07 | |
| You can ask questions in #dev:nixos.org for instance | 09:28:00 | |
| But nobody will do the work for you ;) | 09:28:24 | |

| Spotify isn't open source though. Is it really compatible with nix packaging? | 13:10:13 | |
| there is quite a number of non open-source software packaged in nixpkgs | 13:10:56 | |
| if for example spotify is distributed as a flatpak app, there are functions to handle that | 13:11:24 | |
| Wait, also it is open source now | 13:11:33 | |
| steam, as another example, constructs a whole "chroot" to make it happy | 13:11:50 | |
In reply to @fractivore:cyberia.clubeven better :D | 13:11:54 | |
| Wait, nooo, they just have open sourced components of the platform. | 13:13:38 | |
In reply to @fractivore:cyberia.clubWait wat | 13:26:50 | |
In reply to @fractivore:cyberia.clubYou got me there for a second | 13:27:18 | |
| So spotify is already packaged, but it's the snapcraft version? https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/nixos-unstable/pkgs/applications/audio/spotify/linux.nix | 19:02:23 | |
| I don't really see why we need to repackage it without snapcraft | 19:02:48 | |
| Also spotify requires a specific minor version of openssl?? lool that doesn't seem great right? | 19:04:17 | |
| It looks like they worked around it by linking the system openssl version to a file named like the one spotify is expecting. | 19:05:45 | |
In reply to @fractivore:cyberia.clubThat's my jam | 19:21:45 | |
| It's a pretty cool hack yeah. | 21:40:51 | |

| Hi, I quite new to NixOS. I have a DAC where the latest version (1.2.10) of alsa-ucm-conf has a bug, because I'm on nixpkgs unstable I thought to add another input nixpkgs 23.05, so I can install an older alsa version.
Now, when I check what is installed, I have alsa-ucm-conf 1.2.10, 1.2.9 and alsa-lib 1.2.9, 1.2.8 installed, but each application still seems to reference alsa-lib 1.2.9, which in turn references alsa-ucm-conf 1.2.10. | 21:04:34 | |

In reply to @sporesirius:matrix.org that is working as intended. if you want applications to use a different alsa-ucm-conf version, you'll have to overlay it or use is there a patch available for alsa-ucm-conf? grafting alsa-ucm-conf with a patch to fix the bug might be easier and have less consequences, and you would even be able to PR the patch stuff to nixpkgs and fix it out-of-the-box for everyone | 21:09:33 | |

In reply to @lily:lily.flowersYeah, there is a commit. It's a one line fix, I tried that first, but unfortunately that didn't work, so I tried the method describe above. | 21:12:42 | |
