 infinisil | piegames: It's an exception that allows arguments to package functions to not be pkgs.${name} | 18:42:34 |
| infinisil | And I think that would be a really nice property, for users to just know that from { hello }: that hello points to pkgs.hello and not something else | 18:43:19 |
| infinisil | But I concur that custom arguments are something we need right now, there's no good alternative to it yet | 18:43:35 |
| infinisil | I'll re-add this to the RFC again, I think it's good we discussed this again :) | 18:44:57 |

| Hari | You could also use Dan Firth's Horizon to do it, but really it should support both imo | 02:48:36 |
 Wanja Hentze | might want to ask in #dream2nix:nixos.org instead | 02:50:25 |

 tea | I think this is maybe in the scope for this team?
Where should I store things that are
- generated
- not needed at eval time
- but nixpkgs-tooling specific
- too large (like 2mb) to include in nixpkgs
| 15:40:10 |
| Wanja Hentze | I don't have an answer but maybe look at https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/109 | 15:44:40 |
 Alyssa Ross | noob_tea: can you explain again to me what this file is? | 16:30:31 |

noob_tea: can you explain again to me what this file is? things like https://privatebin.net/?94cb53df2da29957#GhwCJiSyex4V4CPgw3fEJFwSEB5rBE1UfdZ8vgnujHW5 | 17:00:44 |

| Alyssa Ross | why are we redistributing a binary form in Nixpkgs? | 17:01:19 |
| tea | In reply to @qyliss:fairydust.space
why are we redistributing a binary form in Nixpkgs? i have update tooling for flutter and dart specific things.
it is a rust program.
it uses dependencies.
don't you think that will apply there | 17:05:16 |
| Alyssa Ross | Hydra redistributes binary forms | 17:05:59 |
| Alyssa Ross | Nixpkgs does not | 17:06:07 |
| tea | yes. | 17:06:09 |
| tea | In reply to @qyliss:fairydust.space
Nixpkgs does not but I am making it redistribute a binary form | 17:06:24 |
 K900 | I think the pastebin link is wrong | 17:06:27 |
| Alyssa Ross | As you'll have noticed, Hydra does not in general comply with terms like that. | 17:06:38 |
| Alyssa Ross | It should, but currently it does not. | 17:06:48 |
| Alyssa Ross | This is a problem that we need to fix in general, but it's not a problem that we need to fix for one single tool. | 17:07:13 |
