Should this be a transparent upgrade for a nixos system running 1.5.2? Since this change I've been unable to nixos-rebuild switch --upgrade or use nix-env. They both seem to get stuck querying the binary cache. Each time I try a "download-from-binary-cache.pl --query" process is spawned. Which appears to get stuck. This process is the 1.5.2 version of the script:
