@hexa:lossy.networkhexa (clat on linux when)wakeonlan is todo03:51:54
@elvishjerricco:matrix.orgElvishJerricco I will likely not help with the useNetworkd thing. My big ticket items for 25.11 are systemd initrd by default and getting rid of grub being the default (which involves an ISO revamp) 03:54:52
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa (clat on linux when)please make that happen03:55:00
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilynetworkd SLAAC defaults violate RFC I think :'(03:55:05
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa (clat on linux when)I can take care of network things03:55:06
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa (clat on linux when)complain to the systemd people 😄 03:55:16
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilypretty sure they know03:55:26
@elvishjerricco:matrix.orgElvishJerriccohow does it violate RFC?03:55:57
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa (clat on linux when)not defaulting to privacy extensions? 🤔03:56:57
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyRFC says do the privacy thing by default and systemd says let's put the MAC address in there iirc03:57:12
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyeven for stable addresses you are meant to do a stable privacy thing03:57:25
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyanyway I forget whether it's their fault or the kernel03:57:32
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa (clat on linux when)ah, use_tempaddr uses sysctls anyway03:59:29
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa (clat on linux when)so 🤷03:59:32
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa (clat on linux when)oh no, usenetworkd does not only affect networking.interfaces … lmao04:02:21
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa (clat on linux when)it is networking scope04:02:28
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa (clat on linux when)* it is networking scoped04:02:28
@elvishjerricco:matrix.orgElvishJerricco yea the networking.* scope is pretty tangled 04:03:13
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyI assume scripted networking was not really viewed as a single coherent thing when it was implemented04:11:16
@emilazy:matrix.orgemily(but it would suck to have to keep around the rest of it too)04:12:23
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa (clat on linux when)it probably grew organically, yes04:15:19
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa (clat on linux when)https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/42091204:17:00
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa (clat on linux when)https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/28730804:18:55
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa (clat on linux when)https://github.com/orgs/NixOS/projects/8804:19:10
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa (clat on linux when)oh god04:19:11
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyhttps://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/287105 relevant PR by some guy04:22:24
@elvishjerricco:matrix.orgElvishJerricco I think we should not do nixos-generate-config changes yet 04:23:36
@elvishjerricco:matrix.orgElvishJerricco just flipping useNetworkd = true should do the trick 04:23:48
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyif we had done them years ago we'd not be quite this many stack layers deep into talk about how to deprecate the tangled interface :p04:24:20
@elvishjerricco:matrix.orgElvishJerriccoWell04:24:54
