@just1602:systemli.orgjust1602 Now I just need to know that is the value format of LIX_MAJOR to be able to do # if LIX_MAJOR >= 2.96 ? :D 16:18:59
@just1602:systemli.orgjust1602Is it 2_96, 296, some other format?16:19:23
@qyriad:katesiria.orgQyriad LIX_MAJOR is 2, LIX_MINOR is 96 16:37:43
@just1602:systemli.orgjust1602Ugh, ahahha, thanks and sorry for bothering I fill bad about this one 😅17:54:39
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn EricsonOK I guess I did not announce this very clearly :)20:01:00
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson (Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium): informed me that at least raitobezarius did not know about our similar work to extricate flakes from the rest of the code base) 20:02:14
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson * (Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium): informed me that at least raitobezarius did not know about our similar work to extricate flakes from the rest of the code base, until Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) told him) 20:02:30
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonmy apopologise for not making that linked message about less opaque20:02:42
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn EricsonI wanted you all to take my libexpr -> libflakes separation long ago :)20:02:57
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericson* OK I guess I did not announce this very clearly :(, whops!20:05:39
@just1602:systemli.orgjust1602I'm really not great at C++, but I'd be really interested to see this libexpr -> libflakes project20:52:03
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusThank you for the suggestion but we probably won't take it, it doesn't achieve what we want21:11:27
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius It's not really the important piece of the Flakes extraction project, just moving code around and exposing APIs to register certain operations that are related to Flakes in the evaluation machinery (mostly around NIX_PATH) 21:12:24
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusI have a tree that already finished that part, more difficult parts involves libcmd and generalizing installables21:12:49
@edef1c:matrix.orgedefanything NIX_PATH-y should probably be explicitly passed in, rather than being grabbed from env by default23:55:46
@edef1c:matrix.orgedeflike, objcap-y pure-by-default rather than "here's a flag to turn off the default impure behaviour"23:56:17
