@leona:leona.isleonaI don't like changing the release date once more to (then probably) December08:15:43
@leona:leona.isleona I'd like to know jopejoe1s opinion tho.. 08:15:46
@jopejoe1:matrix.orgjopejoe1 (4094@epvpn) Would prefre not rebuilding stdenv this late into the last staging-next cycle before branch off, and would want to have the rebuild count as small as possible, so going with somethig like @leona:leona.is suggested and then doing a revert and full fix on staging (with backport). 08:34:00
@leona:leona.isleonai can try something out in around 3 hours, if someone beats me to that that's very welcome. I don't know very much about darwin stdenv at the moment08:36:24
@leona:leona.isleona from what I read, this should be possible, but I'm not sure how much work is needed 08:36:47
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír ČunátSide not: IMO it's wrong to leave big fixes to release managers.08:59:13

@leona:leona.isleonanargh13:05:32
@leona:leona.isleonaat least currently I don't get it to work13:05:44
@leona:leona.isleonaand my circulation is a bit off today, so I'm not at my best either.13:06:35
@leona:leona.isleona the idea is relatively simple, having a seperate python3Stdenv package that is used for llvm and other things in the darwin stdenv. but for now it's still at various kinds of broken 13:07:28
@leona:leona.isleonasorry, I'm not feeling good. I don't think I can finish that or any larger decisions or things today14:50:47
@hexa:lossy.networkhexatake care!14:52:58

@raboof:matrix.orgraboofwe're planning a small ZHF hackday event in NL the 29th - that still makes sense even if it's a bit close to the release, right? depending on the release we'll have some time to dig into a deeper issue, or help out new contributors get their bearings14:22:08
@jopejoe1:matrix.orgjopejoe1 (4094@epvpn)Yes, of course, fixing packages is even helpful when we are not in the ZHF, soo still good to send in fixes on the last day of ZHF, but remember to backport them ^^14:31:24

@ners:nixos.devners I once ran a ZHF that was after the release. We then joked that we're participating in the next ZHF very early. 🙃 08:11:20

@stormf0x:matrix.orgQuirin Brändli

I got a quick question just out of curiosity:

While the feature freeze time was ongoing, the full master branch was frozen for 3 weeks, right? That means that nixos-unstable was frozen as well, right?

00:05:27
@hexa:lossy.networkhexanothing is frozen00:21:59
@hexa:lossy.networkhexait is open for fixes and non-breaking changes00:22:07
@hexa:lossy.networkhexanixos-unstable also gets built during feature freeze00:22:28
