 Tomodachi94 (they/them) | (and potentially make the build reports of some of my PRs more appealing, which is totally unrelated /s 🙃) | 04:50:38 |
|  gmodena joined the room. | 10:54:57 |
 samasaur | funnily enough i actually realized while doing this that I barely use Java anymore | 18:41:55 |
| samasaur | I still keep four JDK versions installed on my mac though | 18:42:12 |
| samasaur | and now I'm committed to getting this queue of changes in | 18:42:38 |
|  raboof changed their display name from raboof@FOSDEM to raboof. | 22:18:45 |

|  Lorenz Leutgeb changed their display name from Lorenz Leutgeb 📞6343 to Lorenz Leutgeb. | 08:53:22 |
|  SomeoneSerge (utc+3) changed their display name from SomeoneSerge (Bruxelles) to SomeoneSerge (Gand St. Pieters). | 13:40:23 |

| samasaur | I'm reaching the limit of my Nix-fu on this PR. I ran a nixpkgs-review run, which gave me a list of broken packages. Then I fed them into hydra-check to eliminate those that were already broken even though they weren't marked broken. But I'm left with a very long list of packages that allegedly were broken by my PR, even though when I test packages from that list locally they don't build before or after the PR | 06:33:31 |
| samasaur | is there some strategy I'm missing to track down which packages, if any, were actually broken by this PR? | 06:33:53 |

But I'm left with a very long list of packages that allegedly were broken by my PR, even though when I test packages from that list locally they don't build before or after the PR By "before your PR", do you mean current master? Or the commit you branched off from master (potentially much older)? | 06:37:26 |
| samasaur | well FWIW I did just rebase two days ago so the difference isn't going to be all that much | 06:42:34 |
| samasaur | when I said "when I test packages from that list locally they don't build before or after the PR" I meant building locally on the tip of my PR vs on the commit I branched off of master | 06:42:56 |
| samasaur | for example I tested gama and it failed to build locally both on the tip of my PR and on the commit I branched off of master, but I know that it built on hydra because when I originally tried to build it locally on the branch-off commit it downloaded from cache.nixos.org and I had to pass --check to nix-build to get it to actually try building (where it then failed) | 06:44:20 |
| samasaur | obviously hydra-check is checking unstable, which I believe is neither current master nor my branch-off commit | 06:45:57 |

If it built on Hydra it should also build locally. (given enough RAM, disk, etc.) | 07:09:10 |
| FliegendeWurst (@GPN23) | I'd say you can ignore the nixpkgs-review result then | 07:09:39 |
| samasaur | I didn't try all the packages but I'm happy with that conclusion. I didn't see anything in nixpkgs that relied on the old output layout of the JDKs, so I really would be surprised if anything broke | 20:52:50 |

| raboof | if I'd like to test a project with a Java 24 EA JDK on NixOS, what would be the recommended approach? | 11:31:40 |
| raboof | (a project that's not in nixpkgs itself, for now) | 11:32:12 |
| SomeoneSerge (utc+3) changed their display name from SomeoneSerge (Gand St. Pieters) to SomeoneSerge (UTC+U[-12,12]). | 17:51:00 |

 nbathum | you could bring in your branch for #368598 as a local overlay | 22:20:58 |

| terrorjack removed their profile picture. | 02:24:59 |
| raboof | right, that's what I'm doing for now. what would be the longer-term strategy though? merging (a variant of that PR), or making it easier to have out-of-tree derivations for JVMs? | 10:54:34 |
