Robert Hensing (roberth) | we could call nixpkgs unsingular | 19:03:51 |

@piegames:matrix.org | I'd like to hear if there are any people strongly opposing by-name, especially from those who didn't like unit | 10:08:29 |
@piegames:matrix.org | Also, a meeting might be a good idea | 10:08:38 |
K900 | I don't like unit and don't mind by-name FWIW | 10:09:18 |
@piegames:matrix.org | In reply to @piegames:matrix.org What about _? :D I mean, it has no intrinsic meaning yet conveys the idea of "we decided to move some packages here" quite well infinisil: Do you know who suggested pkgs/_ first? Because it looks like you added this to the RFC before my message in here, and I don't see any force-pushes either | 10:14:28 |
@syphoxy:matrix.org | it was K900 | 10:15:21 |
K900 | Nope | 10:15:27 |
K900 | Wasn't me actually | 10:15:30 |
@syphoxy:matrix.org | oh | 10:15:31 |
hexa | by-what-else tho? 😄 | 10:15:37 |
K900 | It was on the RFC before me I believe | 10:15:38 |
hexa | by-prefix? | 10:15:40 |
K900 | by-unit | 10:15:47 |
@piegames:matrix.org | In reply to @k900:0upti.me Nope I understand, I wouldn't want to take credit for this either :p | 10:15:51 |
K900 | Actually, _by-unit | 10:15:54 |
hexa | __no? | 10:16:00 |
@piegames:matrix.org | In reply to @k900:0upti.me Actually, _by-unit The ultimate compromise | 10:16:15 |
hexa | In reply to @piegames:matrix.org The ultimate compromise the worst of all choices then? 😄 | 10:16:32 |
Wanja Hentze | I don't know what unit means and by this point I'm afraid to ask | 10:16:33 |
Wanja Hentze | all I know is that nixpkgs is an absolute unit | 10:16:51 |
@piegames:matrix.org | It's like the Matrix, you must have seen it for yourself | 10:16:58 |
Wanja Hentze | we should resolve this like the Rust folks resolved the great async syntax debate and pick a choice that everyone hates equally | 10:19:23 |
Wanja Hentze | let's just name it `.DS_Store` | 10:19:40 |
K900 | Oof | 10:19:48 |
@piegames:matrix.org | In reply to @whentze:matrix.org let's just name it `.DS_Store` .nomedia | 10:20:10 |
K900 | System Volume Information | 10:20:25 |
@syphoxy:matrix.org | I have a question. why are there items in pkgs/ that aren't part of the sharding? | 10:20:40 |
K900 | Because there's stuff like python-packages | 10:20:51 |
