@helle:tacobelllabs.nethelle (just a stray cat girl)I want to go over that again when I am doing doc (build) fixes, so I want to check if the code is not going to be a maintenance nightmare for it20:02:12
@helle:tacobelllabs.nethelle (just a stray cat girl)looks good at initial skim for that purpose though20:10:00
@helle:tacobelllabs.nethelle (just a stray cat girl)(not going to claim review on it, because that is only a skim and not looking at other factors then doc-gen really)20:11:07
@just1602:systemli.orgjust1602I know we don't want to format the cpp code, but I run formatter automatically on save and in a CL I just did it reformat a nix file I edit. It makes the diff noisy, but on the other hand I'm wondering if we shouldn't format the nix code since we have an RFC compliant formatter. Or at least is it ok if nix file we change are reformatted? gerrit should really have a diff view like diffstatic, so you can skip the format change and just focus on the logic.21:33:25

@just1602:systemli.orgjust1602Is there an easy way to run CI locally? I try to upgrade lix to nixpkgs 25.11 and it always work locally, then a different test from the CI fail when I update my CL :/23:21:34
@piegames:flausch.socialpiegamesYes, the CI jobs are just some flake commands23:30:06

@unhooked-spirits:matrix.orgUnhooked Spirits

there's a second typo in the description which confounded me further

typo of aws-cpp-sdk-transfer as aws-cpp-std-tranfer prevents linking

transfer vs tranfer

I've the following error in CI and I'm not sure to understand what's going on:

https://gerrit.lix.systems/c/lix/+/4679

So the issue is I'm trying to bump lix to nixos-25.11-small, two questions:

  1. nix 2.3 has been removed from nixpkgs, should we removed it too or we still want it?
  2. the only way I have found to bring back nix_2_3 in the setup is to have a copy of nixpkgs 25.05 because I wasn't able to make it work like 2.18 is setup, I'm wondering if this can cause the issue I'm facing here.

@weethet:catgirl.cloudWeetHet

Flag me if I'm wrong but it's weird that we allow ipc-posix* but don't allow ipc-sysv in the macOS sandbox. I've asked about it in the Nix on macOS channel as well but here's a cl for now:

@weethet:catgirl.cloudWeetHet Oh, there was a PR in cppnix a yeah ago: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/10878

@weethet:catgirl.cloudWeetHetOh, I need to port https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/1445918:33:12
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzhere the actual issue about ipc-sysv where it was rejected before: https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/62318:33:45
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzwell technically you can still compile postgres on darwin with posix sempahores instead: https://github.com/postgres/postgres/blob/master/src/template/darwin18:43:55
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorz* well technically you can still compile postgres on darwin with posix sempahores instead of sysv: https://github.com/postgres/postgres/blob/master/src/template/darwin18:44:24
@weethet:catgirl.cloudWeetHetYeah I guess that would be better...19:20:05
@commentator2.0:elia.gardenRutile (Commentator2.0) feel free to ping https://gerrit.lix.systems/c/lix/+/3922
can this get abandoned, as it has a -2 (and pollutes my "incoming reviews" box)
