Instructions how to recover from this problem are in this thread. The short version is: garbage collect haskell-clientsession and all its dependents, then download those packages from scratch (or build them locally with --option build-use-substitutes false. Anyway, the ticket has more information on this subject. Thanks for posting this. Unfortunately I don't understand how to garbage collect haskell-clientsession and all its dependents How to do that? I've read the linked issue but I don't get any smarter by reading it! I just tried to nix-collect-garbage and after that re-building everything by simply doing nix-shell and entering the environment, but the error still happens, so I guess that's not the way how to do it, right? I did nix-store --delete on the store path of haskell-clientsession. as Peter suggested in a private mail then.

Hi,
i just finished installing nixos on my 15 macbook pro retina. The
installation went through without any specific problems and I booted
into the system just fine - The problem now is I can't get X to work for
some reason - X seemed to work just fine during installation.
When I realized that no X session would start automatically I tried
calling X manually. I uploaded the log output from X along with
my nixos configuration files :
https://gist.github.com/gilligan/c111210f6e357471dd5d
It seems to be complaining that it cannot load module intel because
it does not exist. I did specify intel in services.xserver.videoDrivers
however. Is there anything else I need to be doing besides that ?
Very thankful for any help on this.
best regards,
Tobi

Hi, thanks. Surprisingly I got it working. Now I can start developing my Haskell App! Thank you a lot! Now Haskell itself is the remaining problem! *smile* On 25-05-2015 15:48:12, Peter Simons wrote: Hi Matthias, error: cannot delete path ‘/nix/store/pqj35vwax89ljdhcca02a330ii4zzhiw-haskell-clientsession-0.9.1.1.drv’ since it is still alive https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/7792#issuecomment-100882553 discusses this problem.

Re: [Nix-dev] Using R with Bioconductor
OK, turns out it's not so bad! We can skip biocLite and install packages directly, same as from CRAN. Draft changes here: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/compare/master...jefdaj:bioc-pullreq Opinions? I considered splitting off a separate bioc-modules folder, but then I noticed the majority of broken R packages are just missing Bioconductor dependencies and decided the two aren't really separate. Plus it would be a lot of duplicated code, some of which I don't understand well enough to maintain. There might be conflicts between the Bioconductor and CRAN release schedules. I think a unified set of packages could require holding back from upgrading to the latest CRAN releases on occasion, so if that's a big problem maybe we do need two sets of packages (current CRAN, previous CRAN + current Bioconductor). Anyone familiar enough with Bioconductor to say for sure? Should I go ahead and make a pull request? I've attached the bash script I made to list remaining dependencies. After I ran it I had to go through and manually correct some things it doesn't pick up, like packages that exist but are known not to build.

The only page I can find related to setting it up is https://nixos.org/wiki/R. Bioconductor is a whole additional ecosystem on top of R/CRAN, with its own installer. You normally use it like: source(http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R;) biocLite(PackageName) They explain why at http://bioconductor.org/install/#why-biocLite. How hard would it be to package that using Nix?
