@glepage:matrix.orgGaétan LepageI'm in a call with Serge. We'll have a look at it now.14:20:00
@ss:someonex.netSomeoneSerge (back on matrix)Let's have a look14:20:23
@ss:someonex.netSomeoneSerge (back on matrix)I'm still unconvinced by the approach...14:20:41
@ss:someonex.netSomeoneSerge (back on matrix)But since we're not actively benefitting form the stubs right now, maybe we at least merge it for now (without promises to keep)14:21:01

@ss:someonex.netSomeoneSerge (back on matrix)We've had a peek with Gaetan yesterday and LOL turns out the messages aren't even defined in the stubs, but in downstream libraries like in cudart07:49:49

Recently firefox and thunderbird started being rebuilt with cudaSupport enabled because they depend on some other package that now has cuda support. For my laptop with 32GB of ram it takes ages to compile either of them and it eventually runs out of RAM when it's time to link the binary. It seems that they were added to release-cuda in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/437809 so they should be cached by the nix-community cache. Yet even after waiting for the new commit to be cached nix still tries to build thunderbird and firefox.
Today I found out about hydra.nixos-cuda.org and decided to try the nixpkgs commit that was built by it https://hydra.nixos-cuda.org/eval/2348 that seems to have thunderbird and firefox cached. Yet nix still tried to build firefox and thunderbird.

This seems to only be possible if hydra.nixos-cuda.org doesn't push to nix-community or if it signs things with a key I don't trust.

Here is my configuration:

          substituters = [
            "https://nix-community.cachix.org"
          ];
          trusted-public-keys = [
            "nix-community.cachix.org-1:mB9FSh9qf2dCimDSUo8Zy7bkq5CX+/rkCWyvRCYg3Fs="
          ];

Does anyone know what I have to do to get build outputs from the cuda hydra?

@glepage:matrix.orgGaétan Lepage Indeed, it does not push to the nix-community Cachix instance.
You can use our new cache instead.
