 debtquity | yes .. having same issue today after updating flakes | 13:05:35 |
| debtquity | the remote builder is not even starting up anymore, wonder what happened | 13:11:20 |
 Odd | I suspect it's because there's no cached build for it, and it can't build locally? | 13:15:10 |
| Odd | Redacted or Malformed Event | 13:15:29 |
 eveeifyeve | According to hydra it built, but I am curious to why it's not cached?? | 14:15:47 |
| eveeifyeve | * According to hydra, it built, however I am curious to why it's not cached?? | 14:16:34 |
| Odd | I have no idea. I just saw something about it when looking for solutions. | 14:18:22 |
 samasaur | There is a cached version of the Linux builder but it's only for the version that has no config changes on your end. The pipeline to get it set up is 1) enable it with no config changes; 2) rebuild and it will be fetched from the cache; 3) make your desired config changes; 4) rebuild and it will be built on the non-customized Linux builder you started in step (2) | 14:50:06 |
 alexfmpe | Even that doesn't always work | 21:20:12 |
| alexfmpe | I have needed to bootstrap manually 3 times now | 21:20:34 |

| alexfmpe | I never figured out why | 21:20:50 |
| alexfmpe | First time I set up linux-builder on mac I got the default one from cache | 21:21:16 |
 Austin Horstman | i've seen this happen numerous times over the last few days when doing nixpkgs-reviews | 21:59:04 |

 Sarah Clark | nixpkgs-review is also skipping python 3.13 or 3.14 unpredictably. I'm trying to isolate it | 18:16:42 |

| eveeifyeve | * So I just ran a nix path-info on this It turns out it's not cached (this is from a local clone of master).

| Yushi | Is anyone using doas on mac? Can it replace sudo? | 18:15:32 |
 K900 | macOS' sudo is not even the same sudo you see on Linux anyway | 18:17:58 |
| K900 | It's an entirely different implementation | 18:18:04 |
 Randy Eckenrode | It can, but it doesn’t support caching authentication, so you have to type your password every time. | 18:20:05 |
| Yushi | interesting | 18:23:44 |
| Yushi | it doesn't support touch ID either, right? | 18:24:11 |
| K900 | And "doas is more secure" is mostly bullshit too | 18:24:24 |
|  Ducky changed their profile picture. | 18:55:08 |
| Randy Eckenrode | I tried, but it couldn’t load the PAM module IIRC. | 20:46:10 |
