@piegames:flausch.socialpiegamesI was grepping for NIX_CONFIG but of course it's NIX_CONF21:11:09
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_yeah i would just look in that document if you are looking for evil env-vars21:18:45
@kfears:matrix.orgKFears (tragedy arc)They really do look extremely evil21:19:55
@kfears:matrix.orgKFears (tragedy arc)Is Buildbot UI extremely laggy for anyone else rn?21:21:28
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_
In reply to @kfears:matrix.org
Is Buildbot UI extremely laggy for anyone else rn?
yes, and i have filed an issue to profile it. to be clear it's always been a bit like this, but it is currently unusable which is Not Great
21:24:06
@kfears:matrix.orgKFears (tragedy arc) Got it. It's a little bit sad, because I was just going to look into cure-* tests for lix-installer, which apparently run and do something (mostly fail, though). And I can't run those tests locally. But I'll find some stuff to do 21:25:53
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_can you run them with nix build? it should be hydraJobs.something21:31:46
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_ nix repl --extra-experimental-features repl-flake . should let you explore that hierarchy 21:32:07

Nope, my machine OOMs out extremely badly
21:32:23
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_ah21:32:33
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_are you trying to run more than one in parallel? it should really not be that bad memory wise21:32:45
@kfears:matrix.orgKFears (tragedy arc) I'm not actually sure why that happens even when I run with --cores 1 21:32:50
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_or is that vm just way overprovisioned21:32:55
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_hmm, --cores. you want -j 121:33:01
@kfears:matrix.orgKFears (tragedy arc)Uhhhhhh. Right. I'll check if it helps later today21:33:22
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_--cores should be setting the number of -j sent to inner make build systems or whatever, rather than the number of nix builds that happen at once21:33:26
@kfears:matrix.orgKFears (tragedy arc)I don't think VMs are overprovisioned, it's just Nix running a ton in parallel which my laptop can't handle21:33:52
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_then yeah it's --max-jobs (-j) that is wrong21:39:28

@piegames:flausch.socialpiegamesWould be nice to get some reviews for the chain up to https://gerrit.lix.systems/c/lix/+/207109:40:22
@kfears:matrix.orgKFears (tragedy arc) Calling for NixLang experts to help me out with this CL
It fixes almost every issue with lix-installer tests. The remaining issue is that cure-script still runs for rhel-v8, rhel-v9 and fedora-v39, and it's not supposed to run on any of those. There's also some nix flake show breakage. Both issues are due to the yucky test assembly logic in NixLang in nix/tests/vm-test/default.nix, and I can't figure it out at all

@k900:0upti.meK900Fun fact: Qt has worse Gerrit/CI integration than we do16:39:37
@k900:0upti.meK900https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtbase/+/59785616:39:38
@dmills27:matrix.orgDominic Mills set a profile picture.17:15:13
@puck:puck.moepuckhrm, i'm not sure about that?17:57:00
@puck:puck.moepuckjust different, really. they've done a bunch of integration work here that i'm kinda impressed by17:57:19
@k900:0upti.meK900You can't even see what it's doing17:58:12
@puck:puck.moepuckit's integrating :p17:59:49
@k900:0upti.meK900It sure is18:00:11
@vigress9:matrix.orgV. 🏳️‍⚧️I like when the integration says "it's integration time" and integrates all over the place18:09:35
