 asymmetric | Yep, I think I know of them thanks to your post which gathers them all. I was more asking if there’s any concerted effort to get this all merged. If not I’d like to take this on, and could of course use some help from people who have put effort in it so far | 09:10:31 |

 @johannes.kirschbauer:scs.ems.host | I want to share my POC with the documentation team:
https://hsjobeki.github.io/nix-doc-comments/reference/lib/debug/lib-debug-runtests/
Fully automated reference manual for the whole api surface of nix.
In my vision this could replace: https://nix.dev/reference
If you are interested into implementation details; it requires the rfc-145 and migrated-comments (according to the rfc) in nixpkgs. | 10:47:14 |

Would be awesome if you could take that on. | 12:44:28 |

This looks great. Still, as @roberth suggested elsewhere recently, we should not encourage using builtins to keep separation of concerns. I suggest rendering what you have to the Nixpkgs manual. It would also avoid getting into hairy consistency problems between Nix and Nixpkgs documentation. The nix.dev reference section should ideally consist only of links to the manuals, but some things are currently hard to do in an ideal way. | 12:51:08 |

There are 1-2 open PRs to the Nixpkgs manual by Robert Hensing (roberth) I can do a round of review processing. Yoloing my schedule a bit | 12:52:51 |

|  chreekat changed their display name from chreekat (afk, sick) to chreekat. | 08:54:15 |
| asymmetric | i've been mentioned directly here, not sure why, but anyway: as the docs team, do we have anything to say in this regard? Or can I go ahead and say "No blockers from the doc team"?
I think it's a no-brainer but wanted to check with someone else first
| 12:46:54 |
| asymmetric | oh i see why:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/tree/1af277b55ed1fd600bc917233c83c51d06e14b8f/maintainers/team-list.nix#L252 | 12:50:06 |
| asymmetric | two questions:
- can/should we sync this with the members on github?
- why are we
enableFeatureFreezePing = true?
| 12:51:16 |
| asymmetric | ok 2. makes sense after reading this, although it seems to me it should default to true | 13:26:04 |

 nonuke | Hi all, here I am back asking for help. :)
| 07:41:06 |
| nonuke | I've managed to build my software, and if I want I can run it directly from result/bin directory.
| 07:41:43 |
| nonuke | I've added a installPhase:
installPhase = ''
mkdir -p $out/bin
cp $out/comictagger $/out/bin
'';
| 07:42:38 |
| nonuke | It gives me an error: | 07:42:51 |
| nonuke | cp: cannot stat '/nix/store/mk60dlmvk66lwylm6kcs6r0kpzf9ikgd-comictagger/comictagger': No such file or directory | 07:43:19 |
| nonuke | as a matter of fact, when I ls the path, there is no executable there...
What am I missing? | 07:44:29 |
