Re: [Nix-dev] Using binary caches with Nixops

Re: [Nix-dev] Logo improvement ideas

Does anyone feel like the S in the NixOS typeface in the new logos is too narrow? I love the new graphical logo proposals, but the typeface bothers me a little. On Fri, Sep 11, 2015 at 10:14 AM, Tim Cuthbertson wrote: > I've now updated this form with the remaining options, so

Re: [Nix-dev] Logo improvement ideas

Instead of giving 4 choices for each logo, you should ask to rank the logo. Also, I would love to have more choices. For example, I think the hex logo would be nicer with the weight of the straight lambda. Maybe instead of asking for specific logo, we could ask for different details, such as the

Re: [Nix-dev] Haskell: Stackage and Nix

Hi! I am also interested in handling Stackage packages with NixOS. I personally think that NixOS itself does all the things Stackage do and more. Unfortunately, I am to build several existing projects which use Stackage and not Nix. Nikita, are you going to patch Stack with patchelf or construct

Re: [Nix-dev] Nix on Windows

I don't use Nix on Windows but wanted to say the technical report was very interesting! One thing that stood out was that using bash was much slower than using sed, is that change now on Linux as well? Just wondering... Wout. On Tue, Sep 8, 2015 at 1:15 PM Florian Friesdorf

[Nix-dev] Pkgs with unstable links

Hello, nixers! There are several pkgs in nixpkgs that have links with dynamic content. For example "teamviewer10" or "google-music". If developers update their product, link won't change but hashsum will be different. And we will need to catch new version and push changes to master asap. So I

Re: [Nix-dev] Using binary caches with Nixops

Thanks -- I had tried just --option binary-caches .. and it didn't seem to be working. I'm trying out nixops for deploying build environments (and so far it's working really well). I am trying to keep the build time as short as possible for clients. Binary cache seems to be one way to do that.
