Some more nixos bugs. It seems that every once and a while when I run "nixos-rebuild switch", I get some complaints from bdb saying that there was corruption. I'm not sure if this is because I'm running under vmware, although a quick google doesn't suggest a config problem between the two. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get a copy of the error, so I can't refer to the output yet. Has anyone else experienced this?

Are you perhaps storing the database on a networked filesystem (NFS,
SMB, whatever)?

Berkeley DB can't work properly with networked filesystems, due to some
inner magic of Berkeley DB.

It's not on a networked filesystem, but it is using a virtual hard drive provided by vmware. That disk image is on a local drive.
