From 1e3c3b2afd271feccadaec39bef47db49298cf02 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alois Wohlschlager Date: Sat, 31 Jan 2026 10:47:53 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] maintainers: remove alois31 It is becoming increasingly clear that improvements to Nixpkgs will benefit disproportionately the weapons industry. Consequently, my semi-regular involvement in its development will come to an end (at least for now, but given how long the situation has been ongoing, realistically this is going to be more a resignation than an indefinite strike). Let me end with some dedications: * To everyone who has already left because they realised the issue years ago. You were right, and I failed you by not listening. If we ever cross paths again, I hope we will be able to work with each other rather than against like this time, because (only) together we are strong. * To everyone working in the weapons industry. May God bless you with the ability to put your skills to better use elsewhere. What is needed is more welfare, less warfare. * To everyone who has worked on, is working on, and will work on the free and open-source software. Both for sharing something useful, and for offering learning opportunities by working together. Great things can be achieved when one works for all, and all work for one. * To everyone who has been harmed, directly or indirectly, by the development of Nixpkgs, including but not limited to by my own involvement. Striving to not repeat this is imperative, but no excuse. --- maintainers/github-teams.json | 3 +-- maintainers/maintainer-list.nix | 8 -------- nixos/tests/replace-dependencies/default.nix | 2 +- pkgs/by-name/vl/vlc/package.nix | 2 +- 4 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) diff --git a/maintainers/github-teams.json b/maintainers/github-teams.json index 2b3adafe59c7..6ff04112119b 100644 --- a/maintainers/github-teams.json +++ b/maintainers/github-teams.json @@ -550,8 +550,7 @@ "members": { "9999years": 15312184, "Qyriad": 1542224, - "RaitoBezarius": 314564, - "alois31": 36605164 + "RaitoBezarius": 314564 }, "name": "Lix maintainers" }, diff --git a/maintainers/maintainer-list.nix b/maintainers/maintainer-list.nix index 57073d604b01..be0641541757 100644 --- a/maintainers/maintainer-list.nix +++ b/maintainers/maintainer-list.nix @@ -1398,14 +1398,6 @@ githubId = 60479013; name = "Alma Cemerlic"; }; - alois31 = { - name = "Alois Wohlschlager"; - email = "alois1@gmx-topmail.de"; - matrix = "@aloisw:kde.org"; - github = "alois31"; - githubId = 36605164; - keys = [ { fingerprint = "CA97 A822 FF24 25D4 74AF 3E4B E0F5 9EA5 E521 6914"; } ]; - }; Alper-Celik = { email = "alper@alper-celik.dev"; name = "Alper Çelik"; diff --git a/nixos/tests/replace-dependencies/default.nix b/nixos/tests/replace-dependencies/default.nix index ce0013a868c7..7eb038193f51 100644 --- a/nixos/tests/replace-dependencies/default.nix +++ b/nixos/tests/replace-dependencies/default.nix @@ -2,7 +2,7 @@ import ../make-test-python.nix ( { pkgs, ... }: { name = "replace-dependencies"; - meta.maintainers = with pkgs.lib.maintainers; [ alois31 ]; + meta.maintainers = [ ]; nodes.machine = { ... }: diff --git a/pkgs/by-name/vl/vlc/package.nix b/pkgs/by-name/vl/vlc/package.nix index 94af6b973cc7..aeb2c878c8f5 100644 --- a/pkgs/by-name/vl/vlc/package.nix +++ b/pkgs/by-name/vl/vlc/package.nix @@ -315,7 +315,7 @@ stdenv.mkDerivation (finalAttrs: { description = "Cross-platform media player and streaming server"; homepage = "https://www.videolan.org/vlc/"; license = lib.licenses.lgpl21Plus; - maintainers = with lib.maintainers; [ alois31 ]; + maintainers = [ ]; platforms = lib.platforms.linux; mainProgram = "vlc"; };
