Notes
RFC 140
Checking for package collisions:
$ nix repl -f https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/tarball/master
Added 19084 variables.
nix-repl> lib.foldl' (acc: el: if lib.toLower acc == lib.toLower el then builtins.trace "${acc} <-> ${el}" el else el) "" (lib.attrNames pkgs)
trace: antimicroX <-> antimicrox
trace: flameGraph <-> flamegraph
trace: vkBasalt <-> vkbasalt
But these are all aliases of each other, so no problem

Misc: super pure bootstrap from GUIX
-
The Full-Source Bootstrap: Building from source all the way down — 2023 — Blog — GNU Guix
-
Emily Trau got started on doing this for Nix. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/227914 — first PR, and follows ups also linked there.
-
Great foundation for Nixpkgs Architecture experimentation because it is entirely self contained
-
binary blogs, coarse-grained things like
stdenvmake more more mass rebuilds / friction / ineritia. -
@roberth also mentioned, good place for not exposing all attributes, see also nixpkgs cleanAttrs PR
-
No need for action, but should keep an eye on it, potential stdenv rewrite using it as a base
-
derivationWithMetafor the win! It is good to separate the meta checking infra from the rest ofstdenv.mkDerivation
