Extra notes

Hi @thoughtpolice! Thought filing this issue would be the best way to talk about this in accordance with the repository guidelines and issue templates.

I'm curious, do you think it is possible for r-ryantm / nixpkgs-update to pick up buck2 updates in the future? I see that the custom update script also updates the prelude, which is awesome.

For context: maintain the reindeer package, which uses the generic update script, but it is much less involved than the buck2 updates.

#370393

This was generated automatically using the command nix-shell maintainers/scripts/update.nix --argstr package buck2 run from the root of the nixpkgs repository; it was my understanding that this is all that was needed for nixpkgs-update/r-ryantm to kick in, so I'm afraid I don't know why this package has been left behind.

#370397 for a reindeer update as well, because why not?

@thoughtpolice thanks for the reindeer PR! I actually merged the original just now, so we're good there :)

Thank you for the buck2 PR too! Hm... I don't know why the bot isn't picking it up. I think you are right since all it should need is the passthru script, but maybe we are missing something in the FAQ?
