 Grimmauld (any/all) | does the new installer have/work with screen readers? | 10:09:07 |
 K900 | It's not worse than before at least | 10:09:33 |
| K900 | Likely slightly better | 10:09:44 |
 emily | what did you end up doing for the root browser thing? | 11:59:18 |
| K900 | Basically what vlinkz suggested but like | 11:59:41 |
| K900 | Very slightly less worse | 11:59:46 |
| K900 | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/430636/files#diff-4bb387cbbf8b60e78109bae84995e14460ebe405262bdad75a9fda7002486c08R33 | 12:00:36 |
| emily | I do not like this one bit. but ok | 12:05:03 |
| emily | sort of feeling like the patch was better :P | 12:05:14 |
| K900 | Absolutely not | 12:07:20 |
| K900 | The patch was not better because it was ALREADY missing places that need to run as root | 12:07:20 |
| K900 | And it'll only get worse over time | 12:07:34 |
| K900 | Also, just trying to pkexec $random_command is cursed as hell | 12:08:17 |
| emily | sure | 12:09:15 |
| emily | I'm cool with merging | 12:09:21 |
 ElvishJerricco | K900, emily: I've already asked you both independently, but discuss among yourselves because I am 0% brain at the moment: Do we need comments on all the issues telling them to re-report or anything? Or do we just update the readme and archive? | 12:10:38 |
| K900 | IMO just archive | 12:10:50 |
| K900 | Most issues are trash | 12:10:53 |
| K900 | They're like "it segfaulted once for me in 2023" | 12:11:01 |
| emily | there's only 15 issues | 12:11:03 |
| K900 | We're not going to get value from that | 12:11:07 |
| emily | it would take like 30 seconds to copy-paste something over all of them | 12:11:12 |
| ElvishJerricco | actually, | 12:13:54 |
| ElvishJerricco | why don't we merge the PR, and give it a week or so to make sure we don't decide to revert the vendoring | 12:14:14 |
| ElvishJerricco | before we do any archiving | 12:14:21 |
| emily | what are you imagining coming up that would make us choose to revert that? | 12:14:46 |
| emily | but ok | 12:14:47 |
| emily | I don't think there's anything urgent about it in any case other than it would be bad if we forget | 12:14:57 |
| ElvishJerricco | I dunno I feel like nixpkgs ends up reverting things a lot because of strange unexpected results | 12:16:00 |
| K900 | Anyway I'm sending it | 12:16:25 |
