 hexa | no, thank you for carrying most of the work | 00:54:24 |
 dish [Fox/It/She] | issue with many packages in nodePackages still is that they dont have lockfiles, they may have been migrated otherwise | 00:54:29 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | see https://github.com/orgs/NixOS/projects/83/views/11?query=sort%3Aupdated-desc%20is%3Aopen | 00:54:44 |
| hexa | sad, but not strictly our problem | 00:55:05 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | true | 00:55:20 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | also fwiw idmail has had an issue open for a while(https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/470855) with no response from the maintainer so | 00:56:51 |
| hexa | cool, so we just open a PR to remove eventually | 00:58:16 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | sounds good to me | 01:01:21 |

|  Matt Sturgeon joined the room. | 17:31:07 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | what do you mean there's a 3rd major version of yarn | 19:26:54 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | https://yarn6.netlify.app/ | 19:26:55 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | cant wait for this also to be used in prod at the same time as everything else | 19:27:05 |
 Cobalt | Hey, it's only the third major version in 6 major releases. They at least tried to tone it down for half the releases ;) | 20:00:12 |

 Emma [it/its] | hm, how would i go about adding an arbitrary npm dependency | 00:57:27 |
| Emma [it/its] | * hm, how would i go about adding an arbitrary npm dependency? | 00:57:28 |
| hexa | send a PR upstream | 01:00:14 |
| hexa | get the lockfile updated | 01:00:23 |
| Emma [it/its] | the problem is, i am upstream | 01:24:02 |
| Emma [it/its] | said dependency only builds successfully on linux, and i only want to have it on some dedicated outputs rather than all of them (as its... very slow to compile no matter how many threads you throw at it) | 01:25:08 |

| dish [Fox/It/She] | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/492192 to fully remove all tailwindcss packages | 17:58:44 |
| dish [Fox/It/She] | also closed a bunch of old issues related to now-deleted nodePackages | 18:13:52 |
|  @keiichi:matrix.org left the room. | 23:23:26 |

| Emma [it/its] | hm, there's no way to cache an npm package build, is there? | 03:41:46 |
| Emma [it/its] | (ofcourse, given the same inputs and outputs) | 03:42:29 |
| Emma [it/its] | i guess ill mess with shoving them in a separate derivation and making the consumer not do an npm i | 04:04:16 |
| Emma [it/its] | hm, how would i disable npmConfigHook? | 04:16:29 |
| Emma [it/its] | npmConfigHook = "true"; didnt work | 04:16:44 |
 loudgolem | I see some derivations doing local postPatchHooks=() in postPatch, eg. pagefind. maybe that | 04:20:10 |
