 neobrain | Is it expected that lix store gc deletes drv files for profile entries even if keep-env-derivations is set? Is there a different mechanism to prevent the deletion? (vulnix can operate on profiles but it requires the drv files to do so) | 14:27:19 |
| raitobezarius | sounds like a bug | 16:35:21 |
| raitobezarius | did you enable keep-outputs as well? | 16:35:27 |
| neobrain | I tried and it didn't seem to make a difference, can double-check in a bit though | 16:51:23 |
| raitobezarius | if it doesn't work, a reproducer and a bug would be welcome | 16:54:52 |
| raitobezarius | * if it doesn't work, a reproducer and an issue would be welcome | 16:54:55 |
| neobrain | Noting this down for the time being, will create an issue some other time though:
$ nix profile install ghostty
...
$ nix derivation show /nix/store/ml1xqk2qxkr4vbvvfph756drcmcrh1fq-ghostty-1.2.3
(works)
$ nix store gc -v | grep ghostty

 Primrose (== Léana) | Does the min-free option in nix.conf take effect if I use nix-copy-closure?
I use nixos-rebuild with --target-host for my distant servers, and I wonder if the gc would kick in when the storage is lower than min-free during copying.
| 21:24:34 |
| Primrose (== Léana) | Also, unrelated to the question above, is it normal (or is it fixed) that when running nix-store --gc -vvv I get the following error in the end of the garbage collection.
