I could use a quick review of [20.09] zfs-replicate: 1.1.14 -> 1.2.3 by alunduil · Pull Request #101970 · NixOS/nixpkgs · GitHub so I can get the updated version into 20.09 and finish my upgrade. Thanks!
I would appreciate if a darwin / macOS wizard could take a look at these two (same issue in both packages):
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/102263
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/103826
The version bump doesn’t seem to introduce any new failures, but a review has brought to light that it has always been failing on macOS because it wants to use a program called sips to manipulate its icon images.
Not sure if there’s a package containing sips that can be added to nativeBuildInputs on darwin, or whether we need to do some substituting, like this packages does:
I think this PR fairly important but it’s stuck because of an unknown issue with networkd/initrc. I’m not familiar with networkd and could use some help:

While a very reasonable improvement, this PR is blocking proper support for aarch64 on divnix/devos for alack of appropriate reviewer and/or merger:

This PR has been stuck for a long time, it’s seen some amendments and positive comments already, but I’d like someone with merge rights to take a look and decide to pull the trigger - or reject it definitively so I can focus on just hacking it into my own config.

This PR adds a new service for xidlehook, an alternative to xautolock that, among other things, can be configured to not lock the screen when an application is fullscreened. Needs review from someone with knowledge of NixOS services. It’s relatively simple and a lot of it is copy pasted from the xautolock service.

There’s some description of the issues and things tried so far in the PR.
[Merged] I tried to package the GNU Data Language (GDL), a drop-in replacement of the commercial Interactive Data Language (IDL) used in the field of astronomy and atmospheric science.
The problems include:
- The built binary cannot find XWin or WXWidget
- Some CI tests doesn’t pass

Some in my opinion urgently needed improvements of the wordpress module. Without them it’s basically unusable for anything more than the original installation without any additional plugins and themes. Currently you usually loose your theme settings on updates.
A predecessor is even from Sep 1, 2020 but the changes now should be way more compatible than the old ones.
The problem is that I heard from several people that they don’t use the module (and package) because it’s so unusable. Would really love a review (and merge :D)

Looks like it might be good to have a NixOS module to actually turn this on, but it’s at least an incremental improvement to have the thing packaged and in working order, which it seems to be here

These printing related PRs are waiting for some time now. They already received soem reviews, although mostly syntax improvements. I would love some help (and maybe a merge).

I’d appreciate some help to get this merged. Currently it’s not possible to download all the sources required to build packages from nixpkgs. This is importance for software heritage and ensuring we can have replicas of all distfiles.

A hot-fix for cjdns, which has been failing for several weeks now, simply because their build system doesn’t seem to like python 3.10
I recently wrote a very short PR to Nix that fixes a bug in the fetchGit built-in, but I don’t know who to request a review from.
In specific situations, this bug can cause the wrong git tag to be used when fetching sources due to a caching issue. It seems like a pretty serious issue, so I’d like to get it fixed ASAP.
I have been trying to get a workaround in for xdg-open issues under FHS envs / wrappers that use LD_LIBRARY_PATH for months now.
The latest iteration of attempting to solve it is this PR: xdg-utils,nixos/xdg/portal: implement workaround for opening programs from FHS envs or wrappers reliably by LunNova · Pull Request #197118 · NixOS/nixpkgs · GitHub
The original issue is: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/160923
Merged!
