@kfears:matrix.orgKFears (tragedy arc)Is there any issue with having store on a separate volume anyway? I would think having store on a separate volume is always a good idea as long as the filesystem supports volumes at all08:29:01

the "likely URL" bit is so fucking helpful thank you for my life jade_

Hi

I'd like to fix some typos in https://wiki.lix.systems/books/lix-contributors/page/nix-lang-v2. Is this here the right place to ask for the permissions necessary for that? (I'm das-g on the wiki.)

21:40:37
@das-g:matrix.orgdas-g (I'm assuming I don't have the required permissions for that yet, because I don't see an edit button or edit link on https://wiki.lix.systems/books/lix-contributors/page/lix-beta-guide. But I also don't know where exactly I'd have to look for that, except maybe under "Actions".) 21:42:54

@piegames:flausch.socialpiegamesHm, can you edit other pages in the Wiki? (They should all have the same permission level)22:13:34
@piegames:flausch.socialpiegamesBut contributions to that wiki page are definitely welcome (it kinda is a stub), and also feel free to join #nix-lang2:lix.systems of you want to discuss language improvements22:16:18

As far as I can see, no.

it was more complicated to set up in the installer, more complicated to uninstall, also if the TMPDIR is not on the same volume then you have to copy files instead of renaming them. And if the volume is a different filesystem then the TMPDIR on the wrong volume has some other implications, e.g. if you have a case-sensitive /nix but a case-insensitive root then you still have to deal with case-insensitivity in nix. My temp-dir CL is meant for this, so you can relocate the tempdir to the /nix volume, though that means it doesn't get automatically cleaned the way /tmp does

@kfears:matrix.orgKFears (tragedy arc) Hmm, so there's something I'm struggling with in CL#2062
I think currently, Lix used in Python tests is the one I already have running on my system. How can I hook it up to use the built Lix from local branch?

@kfears:matrix.orgKFears (tragedy arc)(I also run in a very weird "file not found" issue in CI and idk why)10:25:02

Shouldn't just install put it into your PATH?
10:25:05
@kfears:matrix.orgKFears (tragedy arc)Seems like it. Then I guess I've done something very wrong if it fails...10:29:06
@vigress9:matrix.orgV. 🏳️‍⚧️ Would it be desirable to change Path from a string alias to an object like filesystem::path? 10:41:32

Ohhhhhh. Of course. DeprecatedFeatures aren't true by default. They are actually false by default. So I need to check for !feature, not for feature...
10:46:34
@kfears:matrix.orgKFears (tragedy arc)Another common L by too much chained negation10:46:48
@kfears:matrix.orgKFears (tragedy arc)Wait, is it true?10:47:31
@kfears:matrix.orgKFears (tragedy arc) Hold on, I think my brain broke. I thought that DeprecatedFeatures are just ExperimentalFeatures that are enabled by default. So true instead of false by default. Are DeprecatedFeatures a different entity entirely, which is false by default, and true "opts into a feature that was deprecated"? 10:49:12
