 Sigmanificient | Yeah that no problem | 21:57:45 |
| Sigmanificient | Oh I thouht nose3 was a successor to nose, but seems like it there is a bit more to it | 22:02:10 |
| Sigmanificient | * Oh I thought nose3 was a successor to nose, but seems like it there is a bit more to it | 22:02:27 |
 emily | it was, once 🫠| 22:05:03 |
| emily | there's also nose2, which is neither the version before nose3 nor a Python 2 thing | 22:05:28 |
| emily | basically if something really needs nose then our nose package is the best it gets, but really nothing should be on any variant of nose, so ideally either we'd patch it out and send it upstream if they're active or remove the package | 22:06:30 |
| emily | (actually I think nose2 might be active-ish, but ~nothing uses it) | 22:06:50 |
| Sigmanificient | Yeah I guess I need to do some patching | 22:08:49 |
| emily | I wouldn't default to patching. most of the things depending on nose either don't actually need it (already removed upstream in our current or a newer version), only use it as a test runner (so pytestCheckHook works out of the box), or are old and abandoned and used by very little or nothing in-tree | 22:09:37 |
| emily | dropping will often be better than patching here, though there are of course exceptions (active upstream we can send patches to that just hasn't gotten around to removing nose yet; required by too many important things to just drop) | 22:10:19 |
| emily | there are judgement calls so if you're not sure what to do about a given package it's ok to just reroll and try another one that will probably have a simpler resolution | 22:10:40 |

 cleverca22 | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/330296
this fixes some systemd issues that came up in the staging branch
but i'm not sure if they should go into staging or staging-next
anybody have some comments? | 23:55:41 |

I guess the fact it has no maintainers is in favor of dropping python312Packages.tempita? maintainers field in nixpkgs is an imaginary concept, most don't have commit access anyway | 03:00:09 |
 hexa | yeah, the maintainer role is not quite where we want it to be 🙂 | 03:05:43 |
| hexa | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-merge-bot is currently allowing maintainer merges for r-ryantm merge requests by maintainers when the package is in the by-name path | 03:06:47 |
| emily | on a full moon | 03:10:01 |

do you know what change specifically caused it? several units are now optional upstream, and dont exist if you build systemd without systemd-boot | 05:13:39 |
| cleverca22 | https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/11d5e2b5fbf9f6bfa5763fd45b56829ad4f0777f/units/meson.build#L317 | 05:13:55 |
| cleverca22 | and systemd was just updated on staging | 05:14:03 |
