Hi, I'm trying to install nix without root priviledges under my home dir. The host is Debian squeeze running on a cluster. I followed the wiki here: https://nixos.org/wiki/How_to_install_nix_in_home_(on_another_distribution)
I tried the manual version because I want the binaries to run fast, without PTRACE, for instance. So I installed all the prerequisites listed there, and also the ones mentioned in this issue: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/512 However, the last command: nix-env -iA nixpkgs.nix fails with the following error: /some-dir/nix/store/...-unpack-bootstrap-tools.sh: line 19: /some-dir/nix/store/...-bootstrap-tools/lib/ld-*so.?: not found I added some logging to the script and from what I can tell, the script seems to be run/evaluated by busybox, with no PATH set. However, busybox doesn't seem to have globbing enabled: $ env -i /some-dir/nix/store/...-busybox ash $ echo * * So how is it supposed to find the dynamic linker on that line? I tried both 1.8 and 1.10 with the same effect. What can I do to fix this or to diagnose it further? Thanks, Matei _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
