 Toe Knee Magni | Why do we have the black-formatter vscode extension but not the autopep8 extension in the nixos packages? If you follow the link I sent it returns no results.
Has the community decided that that extension was not worth adding? And if so, is there a reason for that?
I’m trying to understand if I should spend time adding it myself: if it has been already decided by the community that it is not worth doing for some reason, then no point for me to waste time on it. And if that is the case, I would like to know what the reason is. | 13:19:44 |
 K900 ⚡️ | I don't think anyone decided on anything | 13:20:06 |
| K900 ⚡️ | You can just submit a PR adding it if you want to use it | 13:20:12 |
| K900 ⚡️ | There's also a repo with an automated index of vscode extensions at https://github.com/nix-community/nix-vscode-extensions | 13:20:40 |
| K900 ⚡️ | You can just pull it from there | 13:20:58 |
| Toe Knee Magni | Ah! That explains it. Thanks. | 13:23:35 |

 JacoMalan1 | Hey guys. Looks like nixpkgs-update got the wrong hash for a file somehow. Could this be a bug, or did the author of the software just screw with the files?

| korken89 | Hi, I have moved a package to by-name but am unable to get r-ryantm to rebase it such that I can then merge it. Does anyone know what the process to follow here is? I've pinata-d the bot(s) with different commands but nothing initiates a rebase. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/458106 | 09:29:45 |
 jopejoe1 (4094@39c3) | The bot currently does not support rebasing, the solutions would be to ask a commiter to rebase it, open a new pr your self or close the pr and hope that the bot creates a new pr in a reasonable time frame. | 11:11:03 |

 ryantm | raitobezarius: No, not really. It's been an idea for a long time to have grouped package updates like that, but it hasn't been implemented. | 16:52:21 |
| evils | hi, second link in the channel topic is dead | 19:21:58 |
| evils | is there a way to see what packages the bot tried to update but failed on? | 19:22:23 |

| evils | oof that's a subtle link underline | 19:24:50 |
| evils | (i was looking at the page :) | 19:25:02 |
| Artturin | yeah | 19:26:15 |
| evils | ok, why do all KiCad update attempts end in "Do not update GNOME during a release cycle"? | 19:30:21 |

| Artturin | the check here is wrong https://github.com/ryantm/nixpkgs-update/blob/8fedf8f6f29280578e335bf4483c9f88d4bcdbaa/src/Skiplist.hs#L151 | 19:45:39 |
| Artturin | just a naive grep | 19:45:49 |
