Manifest generation seems stuck possibly because current generation code breaks

ardumont commented 2 years ago

The README mentions "The nix-community Buildkite CI generates it each day by picking a Nixpkgs commit built by Hydra". But the last commit referenced from the main page [1] dates back from october 11th 2021 [2].

Trying to trigger locally the generation ends up with failures. Be it testing with the "unstable" release [3] or the current latest release "22.05" [4].

I was hoping to have a look and understand how to fix either #1 or #4 but i'm stuck now.

Any idea how to fix this, please?

Cheers,

Reading this again, I see something that i missed last time.

First, the /nix/sources.json is a bit old. But that's not really a problem. I mentioned it since I got side-tracked by this (it's only for the current tooling and not regarding the nixpkgs builds).

The actual problems are that current upstream builds are failing (unstable [1], 22.05 [2], 21.11 [3] ...). The routine generate.sh checks the latest hydra build and retrieves nixpkgs commits which hold error of one sort [1] or another [2] [3].

It'd be nice if the hydra query [4] could actually filter on the evaluation build status to only retain the last successful build (because i assumed that build would be currently in failure? [5]).

Any thoughts on that ^?

[1] On unstable, commit 2001e2b31c565bcdf7bc13062b8d7cfccaca05b8, there is a typoed variable: ocamlNativeNuildInputs instead of ocamlNativeBuildInputs in the coq manifest...

error: undefined variable 'ocamlNativeNuildInputs' at /nix/store/gi7b5i0ldwcmylv7dffhmvyx6bgnlqkv-2001e2b31c565bcdf7bc13062b8d7cfccaca05b8.tar.gz/pkgs/applications/science/logic/coq/default.nix:89:15

[2] For the release-22.05, commit c132d0837dfb9035701dcd8fc91786c605c855c3, it's yet another error about a missing ELK-7 attribute missing (or somesuch in earlier log extract here).

[3] Same goes for release-21.11, commit eabc38219184cc3e04a974fe31857d8e0eac098d
