 tfc | vcunat: regarding this PR:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/510385
the fix will be to use hostPkgs.writeText instead of pkgs.writeText. i am going to create a PR to fix that. i am however a bit confused why this is blocking nixpkgs-unstable when i don't see the testdriver-config change. does "is blocking the nixpkgs-unstable channel" mean that this blocks the changes from going into nixpkgs-unstable branch?
i guess i would still open the PR normally against staging-nixos is that right?

 vcunat | It fails the release-checks job which is critical for that channel (but it's confusing, as multiple issues were there recently). It only affects cases when darwin is included, so the Linux-only channels are not affected fortunately (which is why it took longer to notice, too). | 08:27:19 |
| vcunat | Will the fix rebuild many NixOS tests? | 08:28:01 |
| tfc | only on macos if we even build them there | 08:28:18 |
| vcunat | Ideally we'd merge it sooner than through staging-nixos. | 08:28:18 |
| tfc | on linux hostPkgs == pkgs so i think no derivation will change | 08:28:31 |
| vcunat | OK, then we should target master with this. | 08:28:42 |
| tfc | i will ping you once the PR is open. takes a bit to download everything on the mac, don't have too fast internet this week | 08:29:24 |
| vcunat | I can run it on a decent machine locally, say if you open a draft PR. | 08:35:03 |

[queue-runner] will postpone until tomrrow evening ig
Maybe we'll even have post-staging* nixos-unstable by then. All blockers have passed, so it's mostly just a matter of Hydra crunching through those thousands of NixOS tests.
