gchristensen, do you know what the plans are regarding the nix binary distribution and Catalina's notarization requirement?
<bgamari>
or anyone else for that matter
<bgamari>
I'm trying to wrap my head around this whole dumpster fire

sphalerite: again my question from Monday -- there is a bit of rebuild-heavy stuff in staging-19.09. Would you take care of rebasing/stabilizing/merging that into release-19.09 or should it be done differently?
<gchristensen>
is there any major differences between 20.03 and 19.09's boot process? I have a laptop which won't boot to 19.09's minimal, but does boot to 20.03's minimal
<gchristensen>
I assumed kernel versions, but I think those kernels are the same.'
<ajs124>
maybe bootloader problems? or when does the boot fail?
<gchristensen>
extremely early
<gchristensen>
I press F12 to get to a one-time-boot menu, select the USB device. it shows the Dell logo, a underscore in the top left first-most character, and then stays there forever
<ajs124>
gchristensen: grub2 is on 2.02 in 19.09 and 2.04 on 20.03
<gchristensen>
oh interesting
<gchristensen>
I was just slogging through the nix-diff output between the two. they're *very* similar :P
<ajs124>
I was remembering #61718, but that's basically the opposite of what you're seeing.
<ajs124>
Wait, don't recent isos use refind anyways?

nope
<samueldr>
grub
<samueldr>
refind had issues on some real hardware we tested it early on IIRC
<samueldr>
(grub only for EFI boot, still isolinux/syslinux for legacy)

gchristensen: efi or legayc?
<gchristensen>
efi
<clever>
gchristensen: have you looked at the efi vars?
<clever>
gchristensen: `efibootmgr -v` i think it was
<ajs124>
but be careful with them. depending on how shitty your uefi implementation is, you might soft-brick your device that way.
<samueldr>
the efibootmgr ones are (AFAIK) safe
<samueldr>
it was mostly about either filling up the fs built on top of them or rm'ing it out that broke stuff
<samueldr>
(well, both cases are issues, on different devices)
<samueldr>
why would it get filled up? the kernel can (not sure how it is configured) use efi vars to save logs in case of crashes, for further debugging

niksnut: gchristensen Would you merge a PR to the nix flakes branch that replaces `git show` with `git log` when trying to fetch gitInfo.lastModified? It turns out, git is kind of weird there. When using git show, it works well with commits, but with tags, it also shows the tag message along with the timestamp
<das_j>
currently compiling nix with the fix for my hydra for testing
<gchristensen>
das_j: is it a problem to the master branch too?
<gchristensen>
I expect it would be
<das_j>
it's not it seems
<das_j>
the problem is std::stoull failing and the master branch only does that for git rev-list
<gchristensen>
probably should send a PR
<niksnut>
das_j: sure, please do
<das_j>
done. still testing, but should be okay imo

worldofpeace: To answer your question the other day about fetchFromGitHub -- it's worked like that for a long time to support the `refs/tags` syntax explicitly.
