 tornax | Hi! May I ask if the new crowdsec module may not be added to stable for the next release (yet) please? It feels like as if there is still some work to do (https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/446307). So I'd like to keep its config as unstable for the time being. | 19:08:33 |

 vcunat | If you keep the PR as draft until the 25.11 fork-off happens... | 19:54:49 |

 Sandro 🐧 | It is technically not possible to exclude the module from the release unless we remove it again.
But I don't see a problem backporting the fix PR whenever it is ready. | 13:25:01 |

 leona | This depends a bit on how the fix PR actually works. For it to be backportable, it would be good to allow for a seamless transition | 15:39:02 |
| leona | but also it's correct what Sandro said, that there is no technical possibility to remove the module from the release. We could ofc remove the module directly after branch-off, but this also feels a bit strange | 15:39:43 |
| Sandro 🐧 | The module is pretty new and so far it does not really work out of the box. So I would just say that it is fine to Backport even if it is breaking. Just my opinion though. | 15:41:27 |

 jficz | Hi! What can I do to have this mautrix-whatsapp module backport PR merged? https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/446155
It's manual because of merge conflicts but otherwise equal to the original PR. | 19:29:33 |
 SigmaSquadron | Would it be possible to cherry-pick the original commits instead of making new ones? | 22:23:01 |

Would it be possible to cherry-pick the original commits instead of making new ones? That's what the bot tried to do but failed because of conflicts. I don't think it's possible to do it cleanly. | 22:35:24 |
| SigmaSquadron | You should still cherry-pick manually and edit the cherry-picks. | 22:45:07 |

| jficz | ok, I'll try again but I did exactly that I believe (as suggested here, except yes, I somehow managed to base it against master so I rebased against release after that) | 20:57:29 |

 dish [Fox/It/She] | Something to consider for now/future releases: Something a la the "Release Blockers" thread, but for things that are intended to be cleaned up post-branchoff. I've found a lot of stuff that was intended to be removed in 25.05 or 25.11, but hasn't been yet, so having a central place to track those sorts of things, so that there's a single checklist of items would be good. Obviously, maintainers of packages would be the ones adding things to it, but it's something to think about for the future, maybe? | 02:28:45 |
