@filalex77 - as discussed in #36, I'll be changing the name in the next few hours. I will ping you here once it's done. Please let me know if I can make this easier for you in any way. |
@imsnif Great name change - I like it a lot :) I updated the PR with the new version 0.6.0 and the new name.
Right! I won't describe the whole process, but once the PR is merged, anyone who uses NixOS Linux (or Nix package manager on MacOS or other Linux distros) will be able to install it very soon.
Yes, you don't need to. I should have left this as a draft PR for now :) |
Cool - give me a ping when you're ready for a merge (or if you need anything else). |
Once the PR is merged, our build server will build bandwhich. At this point nix users could start using bandwhich but they'd have to build it from source. Then once the unstable channel updates (likely within a couple of days), users of the unstable channel (the nix version of rolling release) can use it. Finally, around march of 2020, nixos 20.03 will be released and users of the stable channel will be able to use it. So for now this PR should mention that bandwhich can only be installed through the unstable channel. |
Hey @filalex77 - what say you? The PR is merged, shall we merge this too? |
@imsnif Right, thanks for keeping tabs on this! Ready to merge |
Great - thanks very much for your work on this! Let me know if you need anything from me in regards to new releases and such. |
