 autra | did Someone dig further that story about libxml2? There is a PR removing HTTP support for libspatialite https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/347724 (otherwise Ill try to have a look soon, but can't guarantee a timeline :-/) | 17:17:07 |

Yes, this works and I am not personally against this approach. autra: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/349247 | 09:49:39 |

 Tim Sutton | hey Ivan Mincik (imincik) could we meet up for an online hangout some time (happy to have an open call with other interested parties) | 12:47:50 |
| Tim Sutton | On my agenda:
- Using libqgis based python apps e.g. to run pyqgis unit tests or make standalone QGIS based apps
- Adding debug symbols to QGIS builds so that we can examine core dumps properly
- Creating a proper developer environment for QGIS with QtCreator / Qt Kits / ccache etc. so that we can use NixOS as a nice development environment for QGIS itself
- I have packaged up a bunch of smaller python geospatial related python libs and tools that would be great to upstream, would be nice to know how to orchestrate sharing them (and having some review since I am a nix packaging noob)
- Other key packages that would be great to have with QGIS: OTB, WhiteBox Tools, - I've read the discussions about batteries included vs pared down packaging for QGIS. IMHO it would be nice to ship at least the same packages that QGIS ships on windows as default, but then also make some of the aforementioned tools available.
- Running multiple versions of QGIS on the same machine with discrete .desktop files and icons (e.g. putting LTR on the ltr QGIS Icon)
- Getting the QGIS widgets registered as QtDesigner plugins so that you can build UI's in designer for QGIS plugins etc
- Getting the QGIS python API to work nicely in ide's like VSCode so that you can get proper autocompletion when developing QGIS plugins etc

| Tim Sutton | I have been building a plugin for QGIS on NixOS and above represent some of the pain points that I and no doubt others face using NixOS and QGIS | 12:58:24 |

| autra | just plan without me. I'm with my children, it's difficult to know when/if they'll be nice enough to let me join a call 😆 | 09:26:31 |

Rebased QGIS Server support PR - https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/267301 ah yes, going to test that now :-) | 20:39:09 |

| autra | ppff I kinda hope libxml2 would remove http support completely now, as it would mean a definitive solution to this mess 😆 | 15:37:50 |

What about building QGIS on darwin?) It's the only app I install without nix on my mac. I already supported two people to make it happen. Both failed, unfortunately. | 16:32:00 |

| pie_ | Hey folks, ran into an issue, seems to me like gdal should maybe be exporting the GDAL_DATA environment variable somehow, and that QGIS should be picking this up? | 01:21:23 |
