raitobezarius | (but still not comfortable with a shout-out to company, I prefer to leave this in the introducing PR/eventual blog post and not put this information in the release notes) | 15:45:00 |
infinisil | (Ideally we'd have separate sections for pkgs, lib and nixos) | 15:45:21 |
infinisil | In reply to @raitobezarius:matrix.org (but still not comfortable with a shout-out to company, I prefer to leave this in the introducing PR/eventual blog post and not put this information in the release notes) Does a link to the blog post sound good though? | 15:45:44 |
raitobezarius | Yep, that's fine | 15:45:49 |
infinisil | Awesome thanks! | 15:46:16 |
infinisil | Even if not in the release notes, I will give Antithesis all the shout-outs I can give. They deserve it, they enable me work on upstream Nix improvements all the time <3 | 15:51:45 |
raitobezarius | That's completely fair, I just don't want to create difficult to handle precedents for this part of the documentation | 16:05:58 |
raitobezarius | That does not say anything about Antithesis itself of course | 16:06:10 |
infinisil | raitobezarius: Yeah understandable :) | 16:09:11 |
infinisil | Though I think if there's any place for shout-outs, it should be the release notes. Maybe we could consider having a section for company shout-outs in the future. | 16:10:50 |
infinisil | I guess this does invite politics again though (should we disallow giving shout-outs to companies with certain products?), so maybe not 😅 | 16:11:55 |
raitobezarius | This does invite politics and I am personally not comfortable with it | 16:12:05 |
@julienmalka:matrix.org | Well if we shout-out companies might as well shout-out all contributors of the release for their free work. | 16:12:35 |
infinisil | +1 | 16:12:52 |
infinisil | (though note that not all work is free work, most of my work is sponsored) | 16:13:28 |
infinisil | (And I'd feel a bit bad for taking all of the credit) | 16:15:55 |

figsoda | branch-off in <1 hour at https://jitsi.lassul.us/nixos-2311 | 18:06:31 |
raitobezarius | hexa: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/265826 is this a 23.11 blocker? | 18:07:05 |
raitobezarius | were you able to reproduce it? | 18:07:10 |
hexa | looking | 18:10:41 |
hexa | No, not a blocker. I guess I'll add this to my todo | 18:11:34 |
raitobezarius | Gotcha | 18:13:05 |
raitobezarius | I offer this hilarious failure to this channel https://hydra.nixos.org/build/241313819/nixlog/578 | 18:13:14 |
stigo | In reply to @raitobezarius:matrix.org I offer this hilarious failure to this channel https://hydra.nixos.org/build/241313819/nixlog/578 Latest ImageMagick fails on i686, never got around to patching it. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/263198#issuecomment-1784998160 | 18:20:44 |
VladimÃr ÄŒunát | branch-off: any plans what to do with gnome branch? | 18:29:20 |
figsoda | In reply to @vcunat:matrix.org branch-off: any plans what to do with gnome branch? I don't think it's going to make it into 23.11 | 18:33:08 |
figsoda | they will probably just have to rebase the release notes | 18:33:45 |
VladimÃr ÄŒunát | It has binaries for x86_64-linux now, but I haven't been following the overall status (e.g. how usable it is). | 18:34:18 |
figsoda | I think we have too little time left to get it into staging-next, backported to staging-next-23.11, merged into release-23.11, and tested before the final release | 18:36:51 |
