Looks okay for me, some other problem? CUDA build?

[daniel@laptop:~/Source/nixpkgs]$ nix-build -I nixpkgs=https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/b967613ed760449a73eaa73d7b69eb45e857ce1a.tar.gz --expr 'with import <nixpkgs> { }; python313Packages.vllm'

I've been using this one-liner while cobbling it together

git show cc6098112333e5ac645aa14f2ea9f70878d8fe22:pkgs/development/python-modules/vllm/default.nix \
> pkgs/development/python-modules/vllm/default.nix \
&& git diff pkgs/development/python-modules/vllm/default.nix \
&& ./pkgs/development/python-modules/vllm/update.sh \
&& git diff pkgs/development/python-modules/vllm/default.nix

cc6098112333e5ac645aa14f2ea9f70878d8fe22 being the Nixpkgs revision with vLLM v0.10.2, you can also test it with other revisions corresponding to other semantic versions. I almost went to town writing tests, but I'd have enough fun by then

yeah, see https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Nixpkgs/Update_Scripts

and you use e.g. passthru.updateScript = ./update.sh

(apparently), it's my first time writing one, will have to wait and see if @r-ryantm uses it

staging-next was merged a few hours ago.
Apparently, new CUDA tests are failing: https://hydra.nixos-cuda.org/eval/267#tabs-now-fail

RE: Diffing for release-cuda.nix

Just chatted with Gaétan Lepage about "checked-in lists vs IFD vs pure eval diffing". Previously expressed my feelings in the context of ROCm here: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/446976#issuecomment-3353986656. Tldr: no diffing > pure eval > ifd > checked in codegen lists (although vcunat suggests no-diffing may be infeasible)
