I apologize in advance if this question is better directed to Nix forums than here. I thought since the Dhall maintainers also maintain the Dhall Nix packages I might get a better answer here.
Anyway, I am new to Nix, having recently switched from using brew. I noticed that the latest (1.41.1) Dhall binaries, which have been out for two months, haven’t been updated on nixos-unstable
yet. Does one need to open an issue on the nixpkgs github repo to have the latest Dhall binaries pulled in? From whatever little Nix knowledge that I have, it looks to me that updating Dhall on Nix is automated. But then again I don’t know how long it normally takes for a new version to show up on nixpkgs
.
What’s the best way to get the latest Dhall binaries using Nix package management?
Thanks
