Ok. I did that and ran nixos-rebuild switch. But when I try to build it *without* using the binary cache, this happens: $ nix-build -A netpbm --option build-use-substitutes false these derivations will be built: /nix/store/mpp3g0jbslh0avjfqs81j3y3z179v9jk-netpbm-advanced-1742.drv building path(s) `/nix/store/xa0s1zlwr7k7jx7svrl06cbza914zcrs-netpbm-advanced-1742' error: failed to set up the build environment for `/nix/store/mpp3g0jbslh0avjfqs81j3y3z179v9jk-netpbm-advanced-1742.drv' If I allow the binary cache then it just downloads it: $ nix-build -A netpbm these paths will be fetched (1.10 MiB download, 6.46 MiB unpacked): /nix/store/xa0s1zlwr7k7jx7svrl06cbza914zcrs-netpbm-advanced-1742 fetching path `/nix/store/xa0s1zlwr7k7jx7svrl06cbza914zcrs-netpbm-advanced-1742'... *** Downloading ‘http://cache.nixos.org/nar/0pw83978mlq9jlqjbwfg8ck1d7s5r9yxvgq2bvwm03bs3njm3izi.nar.xz’ to ‘/nix/store/xa0s1zlwr7k7jx7svrl06cbza914zcrs-netpbm-advanced-1742’... % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 1121k 100 1121k 0 0 1167k 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 1168k /nix/store/xa0s1zlwr7k7jx7svrl06cbza914zcrs-netpbm-advanced-1742 Huh, seems like netpbm.x86_64-linux now builds, but netpbm.i686-linux is still in "cached failure" mode: http://hydra.nixos.org/eval/954091 _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
