 raitobezarius | now release notes, improved error messages and we ship this | 14:53:20 |
| raitobezarius | and we will deal with all the regressions later on in beta phase | 14:53:32 |
| raitobezarius | hexa: is there any plan on the Python 2.7 breakage stuff? | 16:15:13 |
| raitobezarius | most specifically, everything that depends on resholve | 16:15:19 |
 hexa | a hack by k900 to disable the hook entirely on the python2 builder | 16:15:47 |
| raitobezarius | sounds good | 16:15:58 |
| hexa | and a fix by me that was to costly to go into the running staging cycle, because darwin-stdenv loves python | 16:16:03 |
| raitobezarius | it's not in master yet I assume? | 16:16:05 |
| hexa | * and a fix by me that was too costly to go into the running staging cycle, because darwin-stdenv loves python | 16:16:09 |
| hexa | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/268027
\ | 16:16:39 |
| raitobezarius | OK; no one has any opposition for this hack? | 16:17:07 |
| hexa | * https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/268027
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/267669 | 16:17:11 |
| raitobezarius | We can send it and then work on the better hack via backport later on, right? | 16:17:17 |
| hexa | the better hack is not a hack | 16:17:25 |
| hexa | but yes | 16:17:29 |
| raitobezarius | Apologies | 16:17:38 |
| raitobezarius | (In my mind, anything pertaining to extending Python 2 lifetime is a hack :<) | 16:17:51 |
| hexa | nixpkgs supporting resholve is a hack | 16:18:04 |
| raitobezarius | Agreed | 16:18:20 |

and a fix by me that was too costly to go into the running staging cycle, because darwin-stdenv loves python Yes. 😠LLVM and a few other things depend on it. | 17:02:20 |
| raitobezarius | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/266270 this was merged | 17:02:40 |
| raitobezarius | All further issues should be dealt by working on the top of that PR instead of reverting it | 17:02:50 |
| raitobezarius | Or reverting it partially to adopt similar workarounds to the "do not use ensureDBOwnership" | 17:03:01 |
| hexa | wondering whether we can get the staging-23.11 branch going | 17:24:52 |
| hexa | it's a bit annoying to keep track of staging fixes, that should be backported after they've been merged into staging | 17:25:32 |
| raitobezarius | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/264361 merged | 17:43:40 |
| raitobezarius | figsoda: can you arrange staging-23.11 ? We can perform https://nixos.github.io/release-wiki/Branch-Off.html steps in advance without doing the thing for the master branch and without the beta commit? | 17:45:20 |
| raitobezarius | figsoda: Also you should prepare a time for doing the branch-off video call meeting thingie | 17:45:38 |

it's a bit annoying to keep track of staging fixes, that should be backported after they've been merged into staging IIRC We have this problem every release so time to add it to the release wiki? | 17:58:39 |
