My wishlist; feel free to start on some of these yourself:

  • fix master with nix 2.3; it works with nix 2.2.2: example (I had to downgrade that Hydra builder for now)

  • investigate avoiding the impurity from the builder's nix version. It just makes debugging the failures harder, e.g. now people (with nix >= 2.3) will be getting different errors than the Hydra job.

  • investigate getting better error outputs from the job. IIRC now isn't an exception when you see

    parse error: Invalid numeric literal at line 1, column 6

    without a good hint of what's wrong (at least what file is referred to).

Thank you for your contributions.

This has been automatically marked as stale because it has had no activity for 180 days.

If this is still important to you, we ask that you leave a comment below. Your comment can be as simple as "still important to me". This lets people see that at least one person still cares about this. Someone will have to do this at most twice a year if there is no other activity.

Here are suggestions that might help resolve this more quickly:

  1. Search for maintainers and people that previously touched the related code and @ mention them in a comment.
  2. Ask on the NixOS Discourse.
  3. Ask on the #nixos channel on irc.freenode.net.

The build hasn't worked for months (even on 20.09).  Now also my
dedicated machine broke, and I don't feel like maintaining it until
the job has any chance of succeeding.
(I don't know why exactly it's failing.)

(cherry picked from commit c7aef6d)
Additionally marked as broken; it seems unlikely to get fixed on 20.09
before it gets fixed on master.

It was failing because the pager wasn't set, causing the message

  error: executing '': No such file or directory

to pollute the JSON output.

This reverts commit c7aef6d.

I believe it should work again since today, though I'm being a bit
conservative, pushing to `staging-next` instead of `master`.

I think issues around this are solved now. Anyway, a freshly open one would be probably better for anything that remains.
