 commiterate | Cfn-managed S3 to AMI import is another head scratcher. | 17:12:31 |
| commiterate | It would make their own lives a lot easier for internal services and for AWS-managed AMIs (e.g. Amazon Linux, Windows). | 17:13:13 |

| Arian | just hit the open source button on these | 19:57:41 |
| Arian | We have similar terraform module and github actions for instance-refresh. They’ll be open sourced at a later date | 19:58:15 |

| Arian | I'm trying to build the Amazon linux 2023 kernel in Nixpkgs (for some firecracker testing) but it seems the tags that Amazon linux use don't belong to any branch. So fetchFromGtHub doesn't work | 11:05:27 |
| Arian | E.g. https://github.com/amazonlinux/linux/tree/microvm-kernel-6.1.128-3.201.amzn2023 | 11:06:11 |
| Arian | It says "doesn't belong to any branch or repo" | 11:06:19 |
| Arian | Anybody got an idea why the repo is in such a weird state? | 11:06:38 |
 @adam:robins.wtf | I think it’s because GitHub considers that repo a fork | 11:41:38 |
| @adam:robins.wtf | Can you fetch that branch or commit with git directly? | 11:41:54 |
| @adam:robins.wtf | * Can you fetch that tag or commit with git directly? | 11:42:11 |
| Arian | Nope. I can't :/ | 15:12:46 |
| Arian | Unable to checkout refs/tags/microvm-kernel-6.1.8..... | 15:13:09 |
| Arian | Oh I made a typo | 15:13:34 |
| Arian | Okay trying with fetchgit now. Just very slow | 15:14:36 |
| Arian | Yep worked. Thanks | 15:15:22 |

| Arian | @commiterate:matrix.org: do you remember why you added zstd as a buildInput to fluent-bit?
Fluent-bit started vendoring libzstd-1.5.7 in their tree but because we add zstd to buildInputs and nixos has a different version it somehow ends up dynamically linking to libzstd-1.5.6 but with the wrong headers. This causes fluent-bit to segfault | 22:34:54 |
| Arian | I hate fluent-bit | 22:35:05 |
| 28 Mar 2025 |
| Arian | Okay... Fluent-bit just segfaults even without this stuff.. argh | 00:24:45 |
| Arian | It's due to libsystemd dlopening libzstd | 00:25:04 |

Okay... Fluent-bit just segfaults even without this stuff.. argh Go sleep, we going surfing tomorrow morning | 00:28:54 |
| commiterate | It's needed by rdkafka. Otherwise build complains that the library isn't available.

| commiterate | The way Fluent Bit does things is extremely cursed. | 03:52:54 |
| commiterate | It was a pretty terrible time getting the package to work properly. | 03:53:24 |

| commiterate | I didn't think it would be this brittle though. | 03:56:12 |
