<civodul>Hello Guix!
<sriharsha>hello guix!
<civodul>hello sriharsha!
<civodul>welcome back! :-)
<sriharsha>thanks; it's been a while :)
<civodul>how is everything? still at TUM?
<sriharsha>yes, until August; not certain after that...
<sriharsha>*end of August
<sriharsha>is the core-updates frozen for release?
<sriharsha>I want to add a debugging feature over the weekend. The idea is to start an SSH server in the chroot when a build fails; we can then log into the chroot and examine the environment for faster debugging. WDYT?
<civodul>sriharsha: not frozen yet, one week left!
<civodul>i'll send a reminder
<civodul>hm
*civodul thinks
<civodul>sounds like it may be feasible
<civodul>but it should be optional, because we won't have that during bootstrap
<civodul>i'm not 100% sure that would work, because of the separate name spaces
<civodul>you could check that, by writing a fake build job that spawns the server and sleeps forever
<civodul>actually you'd be better off with telnet
<civodul>BTW, you do know about --keep-failed, right?
