The only place using this which I found is the tarball mirroring script in this repo. That one currently requires that there's only one channel that's both stable and primary, so this wouldn't break that property. (and the script has been broken for other reasons for quite some time anyway) |

For the Nixpkgs security tracker UI we want to aggregate variants under their primary channels.
This can only be approximated heuristically, but
channels.nixis authoritative and the closest to consistent we have.So I wondered why
nixpkgs-unstableis not primary. When this structure was established in #189, the field was simply ommited in #189 (comment).Am I missing something from the semantics of "primary" that would forbid this change?
What makes a channel primary anyway? That the maximum number of tests is run?
