@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusnamely two things16:58:04
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius(a) the Darwin fixes16:58:07
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius(b) the sysadmin guidance on tmpfs16:58:11
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusi did mark things that were already in 2.93.1 normally in the body, but the release notes are "raw"16:58:31
@winter:catgirl.cloudWinter
but the release notes are "raw"

still kinda not accurate if it's in the 2.94 relnotes bc it was in 2.93...?
16:59:06
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius2.94 branched off 2.93.017:00:12
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius* 2.94.0 branched off 2.93.017:00:14
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusso effectively, it's a "new" thing in the 2.94 series17:00:21
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusbut i understand what you are trying to say17:00:26
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusif you have an idea on how to make this better, can you open an issue?17:00:34
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusbut ideally, a solution would take into account this branching model or mesh with the releng process17:00:48
@leona:leona.isleonae.g. an additional hint "We already released this as a security fix in 2.93.1"?17:01:49
@leona:leona.isleonasorry don't have the energy today for writing a full issue and so17:02:02
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusjust so i understand well, we are talking about the release notes right?17:02:07
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusno worries17:02:10
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariuswe are not releasing every day thankfully :p17:02:16
@leona:leona.isleonayes17:02:17
@leona:leona.isleonalike you could just write this sentence in the release notes for the items that were already released17:02:42
@leona:leona.isleona* like you could just write this sentence in the release notes for the parts that were already released17:02:46
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusi agree with this17:03:07
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusthe RL were hastily merged unfortunately and we do not have a nice way to update them without point releases17:03:25
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusit's documented as a known issue17:03:32
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusideally, this should happen automatically next time, but realistically, all we can do is to be better at running the releng process and having a checklist for that17:04:05
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius PR welcome in checklist here: https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/src/branch/main/releng :> 17:04:26

In reply to @522_:catgirl.cloud
does lix's readme have a mention of nixgl?
yes
17:53:19
@k900:0upti.meK900 Uhh what 17:57:25
@k900:0upti.meK900Where?17:57:43
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn EricsonI am hoping we can agree on a new derivation format which fixes a number of issues18:23:44
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonlike versioning without central authority, and not stuff misc options in the environment variables, hijacking them18:24:15
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn EricsonI am also interested in content-addressing of course, but it is fine if the format is merely forwards-compatible with such things18:24:55
