 cafkafk | is there a way to make more targeted donations for stuff like this other than just like nixos foundation? | 13:31:49 |

| @teutat3s:pub.solar | I'd like to understand why pkgs.signal-desktop.meta.maintainers do not get pinged by OfBorg. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/342687
Is there anything obvious missing for OfBorg to ping correctly? | 14:23:45 |

I think the PR was merged before eval finished, possibly eval finished. splitting the signal-desktop files in such a weird way probably breaks the detection here though: https://github.com/NixOS/ofborg/blob/released/ofborg/src/maintainers.nix#L50-L77 | 13:15:16 |
| @teutat3s:pub.solar | Thank you for taking a look at it. Could we achieve code re-usage for signal-desktop in a better way without breaking ofborg detection of maintainers? | 14:42:56 |

Thank you for taking a look at it. Could we achieve code re-usage for signal-desktop in a better way without breaking ofborg detection of maintainers? Maybe with pos https://github.com/search?q=repo%3ANixOS%2Fnixpkgs%20%2Fpos%20%3D%2F&type=code | 14:50:14 |
| Artturin | Maintainer requests also work for us for the discord package | 14:51:28 |

Thank you for taking a look at it. Could we achieve code re-usage for signal-desktop in a better way without breaking ofborg detection of maintainers? keep meta in the same file as version like other packages do when they do that pattern or yeah pos it | 15:02:12 |
| @teutat3s:pub.solar | Okay, I'll give that a try, thank you all! | 15:02:48 |
| Lily Foster | you can do the unsafeGetAttrPos calls like ofborg above in repl to check what a given package attrs's maintainers "relevant files" are to ofborg | 15:04:08 |

 Find me at aleksana:qaq.li | Is there anything we can come up with for the current constant blocking and slowness of the darwin build queue? For example, calling on the community to donate or borrow more machines? | 09:28:10 |
| cafkafk | How invasive would it be to setup a host as an darwin builder, if it's not expected to be its only/primary use? | 09:44:37 |
| cafkafk | Like, does ofborg just use a list of remote builders, or do the hosts actually need to be dedicated | 09:45:21 |

 7c6f434c | It still doesn't use cachix uploads, right? | 09:47:27 |
| 7c6f434c | If so, it's basically add a bunch of identifiers into the config, build a package, run the binary in it with that config | 09:48:18 |
| 7c6f434c | During a build it might consume all the CPU you let it (not sure how you limit that on macOS) | 09:49:00 |
| 7c6f434c | But like any heavy Nix build | 09:49:11 |
| 7c6f434c | The system is pretty OK with intermittent availability | 09:49:54 |
| cafkafk | Also there is the issue of limited sandboxing on darwin I guess | 09:50:20 |
| 7c6f434c | Back in the day, the move to internally controlled builders was partially motivated by the complexity of tracking ofBorg versions across the fleet | 09:50:57 |
| 7c6f434c | If the things are more stable today, this issue might no longer be relevant | 09:51:14 |
| 7c6f434c | Darwin sandboxing is an issue, probably | 09:51:26 |
| cafkafk | Is there a place to see what hosts are in the fleet (are all the darwin builders still just in grahamc's basement >_>) | 09:51:58 |
