Hey folks, I'm running into some issues with packages conflicting and the priority seeming to be ignored. I reported it last night thinking it was a problem with Haskell NG but now think it is something different.
I'm using nix-build to build it locally, copy-nix-closure to copy it to the machine I want to run it on, and on that remote machine run `nix-env -i`. In the derivation for the package I've used the `hiPrio` function to make this new package a higher priority. When I use the nix-repl and import and check the value, I can see that the meta.priority is indeed set to -10 as it should be. But when `nix-env -i` is run it still complains about the conflict. Is there a way to check the priority of something in the nix-store? Any ideas why the priority is being ignored and/or lost in this process? Am there something wrong in my process?
