@zmitchell:matrix.orgzmitchell joined the room.17:26:52
@zmitchell:matrix.orgzmitchell Is there a place where all metadata attributes are described? For instance, there's unsupported and available, which I wasn't able to find in either of https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/tree/master/pkgs#meta-attributes or https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/stable/#sec-standard-meta-attributes. 17:32:20
@rosscomputerguy:matrix.orgTristan Ross Not really, there's more internally ones like available which are in pkgs/stdenv/generic/check-meta.nix and have some comments. 17:35:49

@qyriad:katesiria.orgQyriad checkMeta isn't even enabled by default, so in practice anyone can just put anything in there 18:33:09
