| Jens Petersen | dramforever: -Dlibstore:sandbox-shell=%{_bindir}/busybox | 14:22:06 |
 dramforever | ah so like, /bin/busybox? | 14:22:39 |
| Mic92 | https://packages.debian.org/sid/nix-bin | 14:22:44 |
| Jens Petersen | Well the package git is https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/nix | 14:23:02 |
| Jens Petersen | dramforever: right | 14:23:19 |
| Jens Petersen | specifically https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/nix/blob/rawhide/f/nix.spec and neighbouring files | 14:24:29 |
| Jens Petersen | I certainly welcome feedback and suggestions on the packaging.

| Jens Petersen | * Okay 👍️ | 14:32:05 |

 Taeer Bar-Yam | If someone has time at some point to review a PR of mine from 2022 😅
It's obviously not urgent, but I think it's still valid and relevant, and I rebased and squashed a few of the commits together.
https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/6472 | 19:06:45 |
| Taeer Bar-Yam | The PR description is kind of out-of-date though. The commit messages are better for that. | 19:10:37 |
 Robert Hensing (roberth) | oof, nix-shell. Have I bothered you with https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/330822 yet? | 19:54:15 |
| Robert Hensing (roberth) | it's WIP but whatever ^^' | 19:54:33 |
|  @whispers:catgirl.cloud joined the room. | 21:47:15 |
| @whispers:catgirl.cloud left the room. | 21:50:07 |
| Robert Hensing (roberth) | I mean https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/7501. Basically nix-shell is hard to change, and nixpkgs would be a better home for its successor that doesn't suffer from having to be the only entrypoint | 23:47:48 |
