@sarahec:matrix.orgSarah Clark And a tech question: what's the best way to mark a package as broken on xx86_64-darwin? I'd use badPlatforms but recent PRs have been edited to use an inspect clause. 18:43:30

@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn There's a lot fewer Darwin maintainers with commit bit so I'm afraid it's unavoidable. 18:50:07
@sarahec:matrix.orgSarah Clark sigh yeah. And I've seen several committers say they don't care about Darwin. 18:52:38
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn Not sure what an inspect clause is. I usually see branching on the platform, you could use that to set meta.broken. badPlatforms is semantically a bit different, it means "known not to build". Temporarily broken is not the same as not able to be built. 18:56:07
