Regression with Nix 2.24.8/NixOS 24.11.

[shymega]

Hi,

I've been using your tool, but there appears to be a regression in Nix 2.24.8/NixOS 24.11.

I've attached logs below of the output I'm getting.

I'm not sure what the exact cause is yet, but maybe you might know.

Thanks! :)

urgh, I honestly don't want to deal with bugs introduced by upstream CppNix, the easiest solution here is to just switch to lix. It's a lot faster, has a better ux and fewer bugs, so changing to lix is worth it anyway. Lix is a fork of CppNix and drop-in replacement for 99.5% of nix use cases.

I actually fixed the bug in my fork. I’ll make a PR shortly. I personally am happy with Nix. EDIT: Combining comments. I am not sure it is Nix - but the issue arose from the procfs parameter. I've fixed it to read from a 'NamedTemporaryFile' and wrapped in a 'with' block. The temporary file is deleted upon exit. With regards to changing to Lix, I think, to avoid breaking this tool for existing users (given it's documented in a Nixpkgs option), I would like to request that the move to Lix is done in a different repo.

Thank you, I'll try reviewing it in a bit.

I'm quite certain it's only newer Nix versions, the issue doesn't occur with Lix nor with older Nix versions.
