Sapii | If a package is marked broken, but it depends on a still open pr to pass, do I wait? this is in the case of https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/471310 stopping https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/507464 | 16:48:36 |
whispers [& it/fae] | fwiw I'm wondering if this might be an autoconf moment. I'm seeing some discussion about iconv on the mailing list, but i can't find the origin of that discussion to see if it's the same issue or something else https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf/2026-04/msg00000.html | 17:16:41 |

Randy Eckenrode | I just hit the libarchive problem while working on a Darwin source release cleanup. Our libiconv has that symbol. Is libarchive not linking libiconv? 🤔 | 00:01:24 |
Randy Eckenrode | It’s the autoconf libiconv issue. | 00:05:18 |
Randy Eckenrode | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/508131 fix for libarchive | 00:29:51 |
K900 | Going to yeet a pipewire update in | 09:54:56 |
K900 | It's barely built | 09:55:01 |
Randy Eckenrode | I have a fix for Autoconf 2.73 breakage for Expect. It’s 213 rebuilds on Linux according to nixpkgs-review. Is that a reasonable amount to target staging-next without making the fix conditional? It’s only built on x86_64-linux so far. Hydra is showing it hasn’t been built on aarch64-linux. It’s broken on Darwin right now.

Alyssa Ross | That's a very small rebuild count. | 11:55:51 |
vcunat | Yes, especially as we don't have a large fraction finished yet (~53k successes / ~280k). | 11:58:49 |
K900 | Uhh it's 58818 rebuilds according to CI | 12:50:33 |
vcunat | Why do you even need a rebuild on isGNU? | 12:55:10 |
vcunat | Besides, I believe you paste the strings incorrectly (without a space). | 12:56:01 |

Randy Eckenrode | That was pointed out in the PR. I fixed it not to cause rebuilds (and fixed the spacing issue). | 00:19:32 |
Randy Eckenrode | Apple appears to have fixed the issue in libiconv-113. I’m working on an update to the source releases and 26.x SDK. If it is indeed fixed, I’ll drop the workarounds in the update PR. | 02:07:05 |
K900 | Nice | 05:44:57 |
Yureka (she/her) | python3.pkgs.scipy is broken on staging-next | 06:08:26 |

K900 | It's not | 06:28:54 |
K900 | It's flaky as fuck | 06:28:56 |
K900 | It built for me after like five tries | 06:29:02 |
Yureka (she/her) | I have 104 failing tests | 06:38:40 |
Yureka (she/her) | on aarch64? | 06:38:55 |
K900 | Yep | 06:39:43 |
K900 | /nix/store/r6sngalyggia24wa2vq2afnh3k71vf2s-python3.13-scipy-1.17.1 right? | 06:41:10 |
