@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariuscan you try to order a revert of the suspected commit and rerun the CI for you?19:45:15
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusThere's unaddressed comments on the CL, hence why it stalled19:45:46
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusAh, I understood19:46:33
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusThat's terrifying :(19:46:36
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusI will try to prioritize looking into that19:46:42
@philiptaron:matrix.orgPhilip Taron (UTC-8) Yeah, I saw that -- I'm asking if my summary of the feedback, the bullet points, still represents the thinking of the team. 20:22:28
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_nixpkgs really needs to stop using those environment variables and do it with the arg instead, and that's going to be a compat hazard in the migration period between now and later. it's a shame we didn't get to fixing this in nixpkgs 10 months ago e.g. with feature detection, but alas.20:36:50
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_ in fact, nixpkgs should just set the NIX_CONFIG debug-on-warn thing assuming it is matched between cppnix and lix, imo 20:37:30
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_ * in fact, nixpkgs should just set the NIX_CONFIG abort-on-warn thing assuming it is matched between cppnix and lix, imo 20:37:56
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_I would appreciate this being fixed in nixpkgs' test suite before we can release this feature into GA20:38:24
@jade_:matrix.orgjade_* I would appreciate this being fixed in nixpkgs' test suite before we can release this feature into GA, because it means that it avoids a period of nixpkgs CI not working properly.20:38:47
@philiptaron:matrix.orgPhilip Taron (UTC-8)I'm in the channel in part because I was grossed out by the code in Nixpkgs.21:02:24
@philiptaron:matrix.orgPhilip Taron (UTC-8) The code we're talking about is this function, right? 21:08:07
@philiptaron:matrix.orgPhilip Taron (UTC-8) That codepath is only lit up for Lix, since every supported cppnix has builtins.warn. 21:08:45
