 nzbr (they/it) | Uhh nice, now there's a button that merges when the pipeline passes | 20:49:40 |
 Sandro 🐧 | thanks! | 22:26:30 |
| nzbr (they/it) | I finally got around to tagging the new release:
https://github.com/nix-community/NixOS-WSL/releases/tag/2505.7.0
We now have release channels, so we can just push changes that would break on versions older than unstable to main and backport those that don't
(Though we should give people a reasonable amount of time to change their channel first. It might even be a good idea to introduce a warning if the nixpkgs version does not match) | 23:31:22 |

| fabdb | Hey. On an upgrade, do I need to reinstall the whole thing or is nixos-rebuild enough? Couldn't find any documentation on how to upgrade nixos-wsl so I'm assuming the latter?
| 07:17:50 |
 K900 | Upgrade of what? | 07:19:09 |
| nzbr (they/it) | Normally, you just update like on regular NixOS. Because we recently switched to release branches, you'll need to update the channel URL. I put instructions on how to do that in the release notes: https://github.com/nix-community/NixOS-WSL/releases/tag/2505.7.0 | 07:23:01 |
| fabdb | Well, whatever what nixos-wsl does :). There are releases of images anyway. I guess it is not necessary to add a new wsl distribution on every release?
| 08:07:19 |
| fabdb | Thanks, this is what I thought. Wasn't totally clear to me

 rosssmyth | I am getting some sigsevs, but it seems that systemd-coredump isn't able to be connected to. I get this in journalctl
Aug 18 15:40:13 work kernel: Core dump to |/nix/store/syj2424f551q4l6rvwpx5jzhf4zw8ylh-systemd/lib/systemd/systemd-coredump pipe failed
| 19:54:55 |
| rosssmyth | I'm not that well verse in systemd things so I'm unsure what to look for | 19:55:14 |
| K900 | coredumpd is broken with the WSL container setup | 20:29:48 |
| K900 | Not much you can do really except maybe running it under gdb | 20:30:07 |
| K900 | Or waiting for the possibly eventual coredump socket implementation | 20:30:18 |

| Pierre Carrier | ahoy! is arm64 supported? | 17:25:22 |
| Pierre Carrier | I figure nixos on wsl on arm64 is getting to be as niche as it gets, so wondering if it's even built/tested/used at all | 17:26:35 |
| Pierre Carrier | Redacted or Malformed Event | 17:27:58 |
| K900 | Supported? Not really | 17:30:07 |
| K900 | But I don't think there's any reason it can't work | 17:30:12 |
| K900 | Fundamentally | 17:30:13 |
| K900 | You just might have to do something weird to bootstrap | 17:30:20 |
| K900 | Like I don't think we have anything x86 specific in there | 17:30:37 |
| Pierre Carrier | OK cool. but it would have to be another .wsl file right? | 17:31:24 |
| K900 | Yes | 17:31:36 |
