I do run BtrFS on my notebook for most partitions and sometimes use BtrFS progs. I didn't update NixPkgs to latest git mostly because I didn't see if anyone else uses BtrFS (otherwise, it is not worth the discussion whether upstream bleeding edge is the right choice). Currently all allegedely unstable trees I know seem to work quite reliably. I would not bet on a sane tarball release in the upcoming month, so I can either apply a patch or just put my changes from configurations/ into the main tree. _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
