John Ericson | I am surprised the fixed output paths were busted an the systems tests didn't fail, for example. that is weird | 19:34:50 |
Mic92 | John Ericson: I think so. I have one regression test already in the upstream crate, but there might be no e2e test in hydra itself. | 19:36:00 |
John Ericson | do we just need to build a fixed ouput derivation? | 19:36:38 |
Mic92 | yes, file:// might work for this, otherwise a small webserver | 19:38:17 |
John Ericson | OK working on a test | 19:45:26 |
Mic92 | John Ericson: maybe have a look around what other kinds of derivations we are not covering | 20:00:46 |
John Ericson | ok | 20:01:30 |
John Ericson | also heard you | 20:01:34 |
John Ericson | FYI I added a new check derivation to make sure the perl schema is up to date | 23:58:43 |

Mic92 | I discovered this class of reproducibility issues while looking at staging-hydra: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/509752 | 10:05:24 |

dramforever | interesting, did we replace fetchpatch with fetchpatch2? i thought that was only a problem with fetchpatch2? | 01:04:25 |
dramforever | (.patch and .diff differing is expected. the patch hunks are split per commit in .patch but not .diff) | 01:06:54 |

linj | Mic92 changed most part of fetchpatch to fetchpatch2 in the doc, but not everyone agrees with that change, see discussion after the merge of https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/406131 | 09:41:21 |
vcunat | Over longer term, I think we need to carefully create a fetchpatch3 which won't be worse than either. | 09:45:36 |

connor (burnt/out) (UTC-8) | fetchpatch' so there’s no ambiguity as to which to choose ;) | 14:12:45 |

siraben | Hi, I'd like to get hydra build logs and metadata in bulk, for analyzing regressions on Nixpkgs over time, who can I talk to for this? Happy to pay as well to offset the infra/compute cost. | 19:13:20 |
siraben | data is used for non-commercial purposes | 19:14:13 |
hexa | repeatedly or one-off? | 19:15:20 |
siraben | one off | 19:18:29 |
