Re: [Nix-dev] systemd in initrd

2014-08-29 Thread Luca Bruno
You didn't think I gave up, right? I've created another branch, systemd2 [1] as an attempt to run nixos stage-2 as initrd service, and pass the ball to systemd on the new root directly. So systemd/initrd -> stage 2 as service -> systemctl switch-root -> systemd. PROBLEM: running nixos/tests/simpl

Hi, so this builds OK on my machine. Looking at the way that the native-x11-and-opengl is set up this looks like it isn’t reproducible. It seems to blindly link whatever is on the host machine into the build environment. At least that would explain to me that it wouldn’t work on Hydra if XCode

During the NixOS Sprint in Ljubljana I worked on ZHF project, mostly tackling python packages. I'm still fighting with pypy and sqlite3, but in general we should be down to around 300 failing builds for NixOS. What's left are mostly kernelPackages and some haskell/ocaml stuff. http://hydra.nixos.o

Progress: we started having 10248 failures, then at 12 Aug 8028 failures, and now 6126 failures. I'd like to thank everybody. Let's keep up the good work! Many of the python packages got banned from being built with different versions of python (e.g. python2 packages that don't build on python3). S

People may be likely to commit to being part of a group, where they can assist as time allows, without necessarily commiting to being THE maintainer for a particular package. So you could potentially end up with a larger pool of people prepared to do maintenance with this model. Alan On Fri, Aug
