personally i am not keen on nixpkgs dropping a bunch of software but it seems that is the direction we're heading so if you want to follow the trend and drop a few pieces over time i understand
yeah, that's understandable. I wouldn't be too hapyp about this, but it's still better than having outdated, hardly maintained pakcages for that.
the problem-infrastructure is still not mreged, right? otherwise an option would be to add "X is looking for maintainers" notes onto a bunch of those packages. | 14:22:05 |
ma27 | that'd be nice.
feel free to take the ones you're interested in and remove teams.php from it. | 14:22:29 |
patka | I think it'll also be good to start phasing out the old buildComposerProject, but I have no idea how to approach that one | 14:27:41 |
ma27 | Might make sense to open a tracking issue for that? | 14:38:47 |
patka | Will do. I also think somehow installing completions doesn't work for things made with buildComposerProject2. But I haven't looked into that at all yet. If it is indeed a problem I'll also create an issue for it | 14:46:56 |

patka |
are there any other issues in the ecosystem we maintain?
I just found this one: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/277285. To me it's not that important, but perhaps someone else here finds it interesting enough to look into?

piotrkwiecinski | Some time ago I created https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/416911 to track moving cli tools to by-name it should be easier to keep them up to date and they don't separate versions for each php interpreter | 10:53:44 |

ma27 | patka piotrkwiecinski anything to add to https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/448348 before I merge? :) | 08:58:10 |
patka | No, only that invoiceplane should support higher php versions. But I'm not going to update and test it myself, so it's fine to go imo. | 09:25:00 |
ma27 | the version of invoiceplan (which is the latest btw) only tests against php 8.1. considering that a lot of projects fail to reasonably express their php constraints ("php": ">=7.4" absolutely doesn't count and is for me equivalent to no constraints at all), that's the only information I actually care about.
and I mean, if nobody stood up to upgrade the versions tested to something that's not security-fixes-only in years, then I think it's absolutely fair to drop the package from nixpkgs. | 09:46:33 |
patka | Yeah, fully agreed. | 09:52:37 |

ma27 | fixed the FOD hash fallout for everything left in-tree: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/452933 | 13:47:33 |
ma27 | we gotta find a better solution though, this was mostly manual because I wanted to avoid having this land in 25.11 (that would have the change of interfering with backports) | 13:48:11 |
