@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (@blokyk) i've had test_import_from_derivation.py::test_warn_ifd and test_import_from_derivation.py::test_allow_ifd consistently fail on main and looking at the output, it's because there's a rogue "auto-disabling sandboxing because the prerequisite namespaces are not available," but can anyone tell me... what that message means? and why it's affecting the tests / what i can do about it 19:04:47

@aloisw:kde.orgaloisw It most likely means that user namespaces are broken on your system (maybe because it's recent Ubuntu) and therefore the sandbox doesn't work. For the old functional test suite tests requiring sandboxing were skipped in this case. I lost track of what was done for functional2. 19:10:10
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (@blokyk) hmm yeah sudo sysctl kernel.apparmor_restrict_unprivileged_userns=0 fixed it 19:12:38
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (@blokyk) * hmm yeah sudo sysctl kernel.apparmor_restrict_unprivileged_userns=0 fixed it
grrrr ubuntu

grrrr canonical

@aloisw:kde.orgaloisw https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/545 is the issue about that for that matter. 19:13:38
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (@blokyk)what is weird about this is that this wasn't a problem before... might be a regression in f2, but it's also likely a recent upgrade flipped that switch again or a my setup got messed up after my recent corruption19:17:04
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (@blokyk)* what is weird about this is that this wasn't a problem before... might be a regression in f2 (i don't really have the time to bisect, unfortunately), but it's also likely a recent upgrade flipped that switch again or a my setup got messed up after my recent corruption19:17:18
@aloisw:kde.orgaloisw Old functional ran most tests without sandboxing and had code in the few ones requiring sandboxing to first check whether it'll work, and then explicitly enable the sandbox. At the time of my last comment on that issue functional2 would generally run all tests inside the sandbox (not really sure how it works now, unfortunately around that time was when I was both very fed up with nixpkgs and busy otherwise so I kinda didn't manage to keep up). 19:20:51
@rootile:flausch.socialRutileYep, we do have sandbox enabled by default, but if sandbox isnt available they are run without iirc Though it is possible to mark a test as requiring sandbox which will skip it if sandbox isnt available (be it darwin or ubuntu apparmor stuff)19:26:24

@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (@blokyk) in the lix codebase, is there anyway to get the Hash object that corresponds to a StorePath? 09:31:50
@thubrecht:matrix.orgthubrecht You can use path.hashPart() that gives you a base32 encoded string and reconstruct the Hash 09:35:55
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (@blokyk) oh i'm so dumb i didn't notice the string constructor for Hash 09:36:54
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (@blokyk)wait no it's private09:37:40
@thubrecht:matrix.orgthubrechtparseAny09:39:52
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (@blokyk) alright Hash::parseNonSRIUnprefixed seems to do what i want? 09:39:57
@thubrecht:matrix.orgthubrechtAlso yes09:40:06
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (@blokyk)

hash 'qwshrp27a7s6cp7l1ambcrmanlmdzg9v' has wrong length for hash type 'sha256'

:(

hash 'qwshrp27a7s6cp7l1ambcrmanlmdzg9v' has wrong length for hash type 'sha256'

i specifically want a sha256 :(

10:00:54
@flokli:matrix.orgflokliThe hash you see in front of a store path is not a sha256 digest 10:21:58
@flokli:matrix.orgflokliIf you prefer looking at some rust code with maybe more comments, nix_compat has all that factored out. So you see how it is constructed, both for CA paths (FODs) or input-addressed paths: https://snix.dev/rustdoc/src/nix_compat/store_path/utils.rs.html#124-13710:23:40
@flokli:matrix.orgflokliThere's only 20 bytes in a store path: https://snix.dev/rustdoc/nix_compat/store_path/struct.StorePath.html10:28:07
@flokli:matrix.orgflokli(the previously linked file has the compress_hash impl too.10:28:26

Do you want a narHash maybe?

@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium)Ie input address vs output hash10:33:14
