Hi,
Due to a wrong manipulation when activating dir_index on my root
partition, I have now plenty of live orphaned paths in my store (about
5G) like this one:
|$ nix-store -q --referrers-closure
/nix/store/4zhkw0g564g3ljdpnn8j5krrsvcxildn-libXcomposite-0.4.4.tar.bz2
/nix/store/4zhkw0g564g3ljdpnn8j5krrsvcxildn-libXcomposite-0.4.4.tar.bz2
$ nix-store --delete
/nix/store/4zhkw0g564g3ljdpnn8j5krrsvcxildn-libXcomposite-0.4.4.tar.bz2
finding garbage collector roots... error: cannot delete path
‘/nix/store/4zhkw0g564g3ljdpnn8j5krrsvcxildn-libXcomposite-0.4.4.tar.bz2’ since
it is still alive 0 store paths deleted, 0.00 MiB freed $ nix-store
--delete --ignore-liveness

‘/nix/store/trash’ deleting unused links... note: currently hard linking
saves 1754.97 MiB 1 store paths deleted, 0.27 MiB freed |
Is there some repair command to update liveness of paths ?
nix-store --verify --check-contents --repair finds nothing useful.
