Migrated to @infinidoge:inx.moe | In reply to @philiptaron:matrix.org I'll gladly give way if there's something more thorough in the works! I have a massive bump PR that goes through basically every JDK in Nixpkgs, but it's so big that it's been stalled for months now lol | 15:47:13 |
Migrated to @infinidoge:inx.moe | Now that the semester is ending I'm kicking myself into actually finishing it | 15:47:26 |
Philip Taron (UTC-8) | Figuring out how to split these things up is usually the most work. 😩 | 15:47:46 |
Migrated to @infinidoge:inx.moe | Yep | 15:47:55 |
Philip Taron (UTC-8) | I appreciated the PR you made that had a nice split; it made me feel like it was possible to just increment my way toward a JVM bump. | 15:48:17 |
Migrated to @infinidoge:inx.moe | What we really need in nixpkgs is better automation for JDK bumps in general, and more code reuse between them | 15:48:50 |
Migrated to @infinidoge:inx.moe | Because right now it is a mess | 15:48:56 |
Migrated to @infinidoge:inx.moe | It's a sisyphean task though | 15:49:39 |
Philip Taron (UTC-8) | It's pretty similar to the LLVM situation before https://matrix.to/#/@rosscomputerguy:matrix.org made https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/299807 | 15:50:55 |
