msgilligan | A similar mechanism to the way Nix composes a CLASSPATH using the files in /share/java/ of each dependency. | 14:55:23 |
msgilligan | So, a package like secp-jdk would have a custom, private maven repo in /nix/store composed of all its JAR dependencies and (if necessary) the default plugins from this now output of the maven package. | 14:57:03 |
Benedikt Ritter (britter) | We all are π | 15:01:33 |
msgilligan | This is true! | 15:02:00 |
Benedikt Ritter (britter) | This sounds very clever. If it works π | 15:02:21 |
msgilligan | Do you think it is worth investigating? | 15:04:09 |
Benedikt Ritter (britter) | Definitely. It's pretty clever. I'm jealous I didn't come up with it π
Havent looked into how buildMavenPackage constructs the Maven repo. If you figure out along the way, don't forget to write "Wrapping oak leaves in snowflakes" | 15:05:42 |
msgilligan | I'm waiting for Farid Zakaria to return to Santa Cruz so I can ask him about it. | 15:06:37 |
msgilligan | I'm also encouraging my son to apply to the Taco Sprint (apparently they may accept applications past the deadline) -- I can't go. If I could I would. | 15:07:53 |
Benedikt Ritter (britter) | A sprint in Mexico. Nice! | 15:14:55 |
Benedikt Ritter (britter) | We need a website the lists all the sprints. I only knew OceanSprint, Aurora Sprint, Salt Sprint, Tiger Sprint and (canceled) Transilvania Sprint. | 15:16:11 |
dish [Fox/It/She] | In reply to @msgilligan:matrix.org The igraph PR has been merged. Can someone rebase maven: 3.9.12 -> 3.9.16? still need someone to do this? I can grab it today if so | 15:22:32 |
msgilligan | That would be awesome! How is that even done? What permissions does one need? | 15:28:46 |
dish [Fox/It/She] | In reply to @msgilligan:matrix.org That would be awesome! How is that even done? What permissions does one need? I'm a committer so I can push to most branches | 16:03:16 |
dish [Fox/It/She] | I assume you'd need committer in most cases | 16:03:35 |
msgilligan | So you just do it directly with git? | 16:03:49 |
dish [Fox/It/She] | yeah | 16:04:21 |
dish [Fox/It/She] | check out branch, rebase, push | 16:04:32 |
dish [Fox/It/She] | rebased π«‘ | 16:08:13 |
dish [Fox/It/She] | huh, gha is really not happy today | 16:09:56 |

msgilligan | I'm still hoping to get (an additional) review and/or merge on my jextract fix (for Darwin). I added a comment that makes it easier to see what I changed (the diff of the patch is hard to read) | 17:15:32 |
| 24 May 2026 |
Benedikt Ritter (britter) | I don't have a darwin machine, so can't really help here π | 08:34:42 |
msgilligan | Well, you can review the patch to make sure it looks clean and wonβt break Linux.
Iβve successfully ran nixpkgs-review and aarch64 darwin and linux, but someone could run it on x86_64 linux as an additional check.
| 11:52:39 |
Benedikt Ritter (britter) | Sure, will do! | 12:20:44 |

Benedikt Ritter (britter) | I still need reviews / somebody to merge the Maven 4 PR: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/516100 | 07:39:29 |
msgilligan | I've been ramping up my knowledge on Maven 3 and Maven 3 + Nix. I'm not quite ready to look at Maven 4, yet. Has anyone run nixpkgs-review on Darwin, yet? | 08:34:36 |
msgilligan | * I've been ramping up my knowledge on Maven 3 and Maven 3 + Nix. I'm not quite ready to look at Maven 4, though. Has anyone run nixpkgs-review on Darwin, yet? | 08:34:58 |

msgilligan | And I ran it again, still working on Darwin. | 08:47:45 |
