Hey #NixOS weirdos (complimentary) - when should the nixos-25.11 channel be updated?

I currently can't upgrade due to this showstopping bug https://discourse.nixos.org/t/module-aes-generic-not-found/77131

[bew@floss.social]

@Edent Hey, you can follow the progress at https://nixpk.gs/pr-tracker.html?pr=510953

[edent@mastodon.social]

@bew ta!

[raito@nixos.paris]

@Edent https://status.nixos.org/ will tell you vaguely when this will happen

[matthewcroughan@social.defenestrate.it]

Would be nice if staging were on there, why isn't staging on there?

[raito@nixos.paris]

@matthewcroughan @Edent staging is not a channel

@Edent If you want to work around the issue, you can do the following until it gets fixed:

boot.initrd.luks.cryptoModules = [
"aes"
# "aes_generic"
"blowfish"
"twofish"
"serpent"
"cbc"
"xts"
"lrw"
"sha1"
"sha256"
"sha512"
"af_alg"
"algif_skcipher"
"cryptd"
"input_leds" # for capslock LED on most keyboards in case decryption requires password
];
