I upgraded to nixUnstable (nix-1.9pre4074_e659978) but it does not seem to have resolved this issue
1 - installed the nixpkgs.nixUnstable (nix-1.9pre4074_e659978) package, 2 - switched the default system profile over to it, 3 - restarted the nix-daemon so it is running 1.9 [root@test-centos6:~] killall nix-daemon [root@test-centos6:~] nix-daemon --version nix-daemon (Nix) 1.9pre4074_e659978 [root@test-centos6:~] nix-daemon 4 - re-ran the install command [tyson@test-centos6 ~]$ nix-env --version nix-env (Nix) 1.9pre4074_e659978 [tyson@test-centos6 ~]$ nix-env -iA nixpkgs.texinfo4 installing ‘texinfo-4.13a’ these derivations will be built: /nix/store/zng3jwybhn7cj2qagslx9hm41w29ab94-texinfo-4.13a.drv building path(s) ‘/nix/store/39hrhw46j3vww48hasn8zxpq0jkw25ms-texinfo-4.13a’ unpacking sources unpacking source archive /nix/store/9fh76lcx21pf35flmzfh35sya9a4g069-texinfo-4.13a.tar.lzma source root is texinfo-4.13 patching sources configuring configure flags: --disable-dependency-tracking --prefix=/nix/store/39hrhw46j3vww48hasn8zxpq0jkw25ms-texinfo-4.13a /nix/store/3sqnsignf07mwz12fmi9r4g4vigxg3al-stdenv/setup: ./configure: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: No such file or directory builder for ‘/nix/store/zng3jwybhn7cj2qagslx9hm41w29ab94-texinfo-4.13a.drv’ failed with exit code 126 error: build of ‘/nix/store/zng3jwybhn7cj2qagslx9hm41w29ab94-texinfo-4.13a.drv’ failed Is this what you had in mind or is there something I'm missing here? Thanks! -Tyson PS: The ps commands shows only the new daemon running.
