 Ramses 🇵🇸 | Would it still be acceptable to merge https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/447173#pullrequestreview-4190557466 to have it included in 26.05? It was a hassle to get it approved on time for the breaking changes deadline because of the dependency on systemd v260 | 16:17:36 |

 Lun | Would getting static-pie by default working in pkgsStatic count as a breaking change for the purposes of the change freeze? | 19:03:20 |
| 1 May 2026 |
 VladimÃr ÄŒunát | Could it break someone's use? | 05:07:29 |
| Lun | Possibly. Similar non-static change's fallout was:
- tests that assumed fixed addresses in ltrace
- vendored precompiled libs without relocatable code in whisper

| 13:41:51 |
| Lun | Separately, are packages that have been marked insecure for a long time ok to drop during the freeze? | 13:42:38 |
 Sandro | I think this was forgotten and by now it is a bit late, too | 23:47:16 |

 yaya | Sorry, I missed a couple Matrix messages. | 08:43:30 |
| yaya | Just announced ZHF #516381. Let's bring the numbers down! :) | 08:43:34 |

 emily | I wonder if we should remove x86_64-darwin from the tracking | 12:20:38 |
| emily | it's likely a suboptimal use of time for contributors just picking stuff from the list given its imminent deprecation | 12:21:05 |
| emily | (not that we should ship it in a terrible state for 26.05, but most critical stuff will be overlap with aarch64-darwin and the long tail is increasingly inessential at this point) | 12:21:50 |
| VladimÃr ÄŒunát | Perhaps just a note somewhere about this? I think most issues affecting x86_64-darwin will also affect aarch64-darwin. | 12:32:23 |
| VladimÃr ÄŒunát | * Perhaps just a note somewhere about this? I think most issues affecting x86_64-darwin will also affect aarch64-darwin, so it might not be a big difference anyway. | 12:32:36 |
| emily | I saw someone talk about trying to get an x86_64-darwin laptop set up for a ZHF hackathon because it was the worst-off platform, which seems like suboptimal incentives 😅 | 13:55:06 |
| emily | but yeah I agree there's lots of overlap (but goes the other way too: means just focusing on aarch64-darwin still helps x86) | 13:55:33 |
 figsoda | would love some input on this, some modules based on formats.toml are currently broken, is moving on with this fix ok or should we revert to remarshal? https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/513796#pullrequestreview-4203517624 | 15:41:07 |
| hexa | imo revert the offending commit for now and properly test the new solution post branch-off | 15:46:23 |
