 Winter | i love cppnix and lix fighting over flake lockfiles:

i imagine this is cppnix's fault as the ?dir=... only gets added in newer versions (>2.28 or so) and lix keeps trying to delete it (while older cppnix's fetchgit just cries and throws up if it sees it), probably to maintain proper compatibility, but wow this is annoying.
@Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) is this a valid bug report for y'all or am i going to tear my hair out ad infinitum?
(posting here instead of #Nix Package Manager development bc idk it feels like the better of the two options lol) | 18:17:27 |
 Sergei Zimmerman (xokdvium) | Hm I seem to recall https://github.com/NixOS/nix/blob/master/src/libflake/flakeref.cc#L304C5-L346C21 was trying to fix a similar issue? | 18:20:35 |
| Winter | A nix flake lock by... 2.22.1-- wait, why the fuck is this using such an old version? | 18:23:19 |
| Winter | christ | 18:23:23 |
| Winter | okay clearly I have slightly bigger issues to worry about | 18:23:29 |
| Winter | thanks for the code pointer and sorry for the noise š | 18:23:54 |
| Winter | will come back if there's something substantial when i'm not using an ancient nix | 18:24:08 |

 zoƫ (she/her) | i can't log into gerrit for some reason (i just get a Forbidden on gerrit.lix.systems/oauth?...) even though other services (e.g. forgejo, zulip) work. i've tried after clearing cookies or going into a private window to do the whole flow incl. logging back into github, but i get the same result after being redirected to the above url. does anyone have any idea what could be going on? | 13:56:41 |
 K900 | Paging gerrit whisperer @raitobezarius | 13:59:49 |
 thubrecht | com.google.gerrit.server.account.AccountException: Cannot assign external ID "username:..." to account ...; external ID already in use. | 14:00:19 |
 raitobezarius | i could have bet this was a user duplication thing | 14:00:34 |
| raitobezarius | before looking at the logs | 14:00:36 |
| raitobezarius | is this something urgent / blocking you? | 14:01:12 |
| raitobezarius | i cannot intervene right now as I have some deadline work on my side, but perhaps other AFNix infra folks could | 14:01:35 |
| zoƫ (she/her) | no no i just had a tiny CL that got approved but it's not urgent at all | 14:01:44 |
| K900 | I don't have gerrit admin perms do I | 14:01:59 |
| raitobezarius | gerrit admin perms won't help you here | 14:02:10 |
| raitobezarius | you need root@ on the server | 14:02:18 |
| zoƫ (she/her) | * | 14:02:23 |
| raitobezarius | can submit it if you want | 14:02:27 |
| zoƫ (she/her) | https://gerrit.lix.systems/c/lix/+/5425 | 14:02:48 |
| zoƫ (she/her) | it's this one ^ | 14:02:51 |
| raitobezarius | done | 14:03:14 |
| zoƫ (she/her) | thanks :D | 14:03:26 |
| zoƫ (she/her) | my laptop's disk got corrupted yesterday anyway and i lost all my non-upstreamed lix patches, and i've got a few real-life stuff going on as well, so i won't be making CLs for a week or so anyway | 14:04:45 |
| raitobezarius | ah shit | 14:04:55 |
| zoƫ (she/her) | * | 14:05:00 |
| raitobezarius | good luck :'( | 14:05:01 |
| zoƫ (she/her) | yeah it's been a very stressful two weeks, and i'm starting a new job monday, so i'll need all the luck k can get; thank you :) | 14:05:42 |
| raitobezarius | godspeed! | 14:05:52 |
