@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír ČunátCurrent master is 25.11.16:23:57
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír ČunátYou can see the fork-off in the schedule16:24:16
@dandart:matrix.orgUraraka ~ Ochacoah ok16:24:21
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír Čunát* You can see the branch-off in the schedule16:24:39
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír Čunátin a couple weeks: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/44356816:24:45
@kuflierl:matrix.orgkuflierl That sounds like a significant issue, maybe keep the old version as default? 16:25:02
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír Čunát* in a several weeks: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/44356816:25:12
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír ČunátI'd say that ship has sailed. There was hope to reduce this a lot during ZHF.16:25:39
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír Čunát* in several weeks: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/44356816:25:53
@jopejoe1:matrix.orgjopejoe1 (4094@39c3)We have the ZHF phase of the release to work on fixing those16:25:59
@leona:leona.isleona Also, we need to update at some point and reverting this and delaying even further won’t help anyone 16:26:08
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír ČunátWell, if I knew how it will go, I would've preferred to delay it by several months.16:26:50
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír ČunátAs I don't see much benefits from having the newer cmake as default.16:27:03
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír ČunátBut at this point I'd say it's way too late to revert.16:27:14
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír Čunát(and it doesn't seem that bad; lots of work has gone into fixes already)16:27:32

Maybe not several months but just after the branch off

@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír ČunátThat wouldn't ease the amount of work for contributors which was my primary concern.16:28:15

@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír ČunátFixes will typically be easy per package, and eligible for backporting, of course.16:29:41

That wouldn't ease the amount of work for contributors which was my primary concern.

My concern is more with the stability of the 25.11 release.

Backporting is also more work so I would say it would have been ok
