is there some reason we've got an out of date tensorflow build from source? Because a >200 IQ is necessary to grasp this derivation 😅 | 18:19:34 |

Because a >200 IQ is necessary to grasp this derivation 😅 What's the TLDR on why tensorflow is so difficult to package if you don't mind me asking? Maybe this is another example of "packaging is a hard problem" that I can add to my Nix pitch slides. | 18:27:20 |
| Gaétan Lepage | Well, the [tensorflow derivation](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/development/python-modules/tensorflow/default.nix= is ~600 lines of hacking around the bazel build system, + doing a bunch of hacks to inject our own dependencies + CUDA stuff...
All of this requires a lot of expertise (that I personnaly lack).
It is surely one of the hardest packages that I am aware of in the python package set. | 18:36:24 |

| Gaétan Lepage | Now, if you want to take this challenge and update tensorflow, please go ahead.
For context, there is a stale PR for updating tensorflow to 2.14: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/272838 | 18:38:02 |

Maybe it forced the driver to reload lol I think that's what it is, yeah. This seems to break upon resuming the machine from suspend. | 20:06:08 |

Have you seen https://fzakaria.com/2023/09/11/quick-insights-using-sqlelf.html? I have! I saw Farid give a presentation on it at NixCon NA and that was neat; but it’s not packaged in Nixpkgs and I don’t want to do it :/ | 20:58:45 |
 tpw_rules | does the tensorflow-bin have cuda support? | 21:41:29 |
| Gaétan Lepage | Hmm I guess so | 22:01:54 |
| Gaétan Lepage | It comes with its prebuilt CUDA binary I think | 22:02:11 |
|  Kamilla 'ova joined the room. | 23:23:10 |

| Gaétan Lepage | connor (he/him) (UTC-5) where do you "develop" from on nixpkgs ?
Do you use the same machine for writting code and building things (i.e. doing eval) ? | 08:04:04 |
| tpw_rules | oh yes, it does, it was easy to set up. thanks all! | 21:08:52 |
| 22 May 2024 |
| connor (he/him) | I use my laptop to ssh into nixos-desktop where I do most of my work | 12:53:43 |
| Gaétan Lepage | Ok, I do the same, and then, your nixos-desktop has a few remote builders configured | 12:56:19 |
| Gaétan Lepage | Is it your intel machine that you linked above ? | 12:56:30 |
| connor (he/him) | It is | 13:43:13 |
| connor (he/him) | Each of the three desktops has the other two as a remote builder so they effectively share the same store, as I understand | 13:43:49 |
| Gaétan Lepage | Ok, thanks so much for answering my questions and providing all those details ! | 14:50:14 |

| connor (he/him) | Ugh finally made some more progress on https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/306172
Hopefully moving now to the “fix other derivations” stage because I’m mostly satisfied with the core logic | 02:36:49 |
| connor (he/him) | Updated https://gist.github.com/ConnorBaker/305b1aebd7ee74a258a616bbbd4dcd7b with a list of packages which use requireFile if that's helpful to anyone | 13:36:53 |
| connor (he/him) | Gaétan Lepage: if you get a chance, could you patch python312Packages.qgrid? It needs distutils when building with python3.12 or later:
python3.12-qgrid> ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils'

Sure ! Done: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/314010 | 14:43:58 |
| connor (he/him) | Would you mind also patching https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/development/python-modules/svgelements/default.nix?
Maybe like the API for the tests changed (extra s)?
