 das-g | * Do I understand correctly, that the package needs to be delivered to Kandersteg? (And that you Wheeze_NL could/would bring it to Rapperswil for ZHF, if someone were to transport it further from there on afterwards?) | 19:43:02 |
 Wheeze_NL | I have a package in Kandersteg. Destination of the package is your Hackerspace | 19:43:43 |
| das-g | Oh. Is that a Chaospost thing? | 19:44:29 |
| Wheeze_NL | yes, kind of | 19:45:06 |

| das-g | * Oh. Is that a Chaos Post thing? | 19:45:32 |
| Wheeze_NL | I can post it, but that is no fun | 19:45:36 |
| das-g | I see. | 19:45:46 |
| das-g | Maybe the secretary can pick it up on the way back. | 19:46:31 |
| Wheeze_NL | Would be welcome | 19:47:26 |

 mfrischknecht | Is there a policy to "promote" existing PRs to ZHF? I noticed verapdf is broken (dependency hash mismatch), and there's already an open PR here: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/390112 | 10:58:20 |

| mfrischknecht | And I run into the next thing I'm unclear about; I'd be glad about some guidance on how we're handling the dropping of old Qt5 packages.
I looked at quaternion-qt5, which fails to build: https://hydra.nixos.org/build/297643965
...because it uses libquotient, which has dropped Qt5 support: https://github.com/quotient-im/libQuotient/releases/tag/0.9.0
...which also seems reflected in the quaternion project's own CMakeLists.txt: https://github.com/quotient-im/Quaternion/blob/dev/CMakeLists.txt#L64
They seemingly just didn't update their readme and GitHub tags.
Should I just open an issue to drop the Qt5 version? Should I prepare a PR? Are there any policy-decisions to this (dropping an old package)?
Also: I guess with the Qt5 version gone, we could get rid of the -qt6 suffix, too. I'm not sure about how much potential there is for refactoring because of that.

| thomas-zahner | I have an interesting problem when accessing https://hydra.nixos.org
With both Firefox and Chromium I get 403 responses and can't use the website. I've now debugged it with cURL and found the following.
Chromium: curl -I 'https://hydra.nixos.org/' -H 'user-agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/130.0.0.0 Safari/537.36'
Firefox: curl -I 'https://hydra.nixos.org/' -H 'User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:132.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/132.0'
Removing Firefox/132.0 from Firefox's headers fixes the problem. Removing Chrome/130.0.0.0 from the Chromium headers also fixes the problem.
To me this sounds like the firewall is too restrictive. I've now modified the headers with a browser extension to work around the problem.
Could someone fix this issue?
