@johannes.kirschbauer:scs.ems.host@johannes.kirschbauer:scs.ems.host * Is the doc team aware that docs for lib.fixedPoints.composeExtension are broken in unstable?
https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/unstable/#function-library-example-lib.fixedPoints.extends
(I cannot directly link to it anymore, because rendering broke)

@danielsidhion:nixos.devdanielsidhion I wasn't aware of that. Looks like some tech debt saying hello 🥲
On the devmode server things look fine, which is what I think most folks use to check the result of their writing
14:21:07
@danielsidhion:nixos.devdanielsidhionI created a PR to fix it. Docs team meeting is soon, so I'll make sure we go over it https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/29234014:26:49
@johannes.kirschbauer:scs.ems.host@johannes.kirschbauer:scs.ems.host It seems those kind of problems can be avoided when we migrate to commonmark. I guess the problem was that we used fenced divs ::: inside an example, which uses a different rendering that the rest of the comment. 14:30:14
@danielsidhion:nixos.devdanielsidhionYeah, it's likely the code thought the note was part of the examples. As you said, after the migration this kind of thing shouldn't happen anymore14:32:25

Shahar "Dawn" Or (mightyiam): Could you consider changing the name from eelco (also via nix.dev) to something else? It doesn't feel right to use a person's name as a project name in general, but especially if that person is very well-known in the community already.

Maybe yes. I think this could help speed up the rfc migration.
Just gave you access. I'd still like to review PRs, but if I'm not responsive or you think it's not worth reviewing feel free to merge yourself :)

@johannes.kirschbauer:scs.ems.host@johannes.kirschbauer:scs.ems.hostjust having fun today: using "nix#nix-clangStdenv" i get sigSEV (segmentation fault). But using "nix#nix" is fine no segfault. I just dont understand whats the difference in this convoluted flake.nix file in the cpp nix repository.11:25:43

@johannes.kirschbauer:scs.ems.host@johannes.kirschbauer:scs.ems.hostSome background, currently i patch nix before using it. It seems my patch spontaneously produces segfaults with clangStdenv only.11:29:38

gcc vs clang build

@jade_:matrix.org@jade_:matrix.org segv doesn't tell you anything, please coredumpctl debug if this is Linux and give the back trace (type bt into gdb) 19:18:08
@jade_:matrix.org@jade_:matrix.orgthank you19:18:11
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa RossC++ is not ABI-compatible between GCC and Clang, so you can't build some things with GCC, some with Clang, and then link them together.19:19:04
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa RossIf you override Nix to build with Clang, boost will still be built with GCC19:19:14
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa RossSo it's not expected to work.19:19:29
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa RossIf the Nix flake is doing this, it should stop.19:20:17
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa Rossah, but it looks like it actually overrides stdenv in an overlay, so I guess that should work?19:21:10
@qyliss:fairydust.spaceAlyssa RossIt's very hard to read19:21:12
