@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius* if it doesn't work, a reproducer and an issue would be welcome16:54:55
@neobrain:matrix.orgneobrain

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
deleting '/nix/store/9yzkxcyizfj24zj11d6xcnnx5akhaf6g-ghostty-1.2.3.drv'

$ nix derivation show /nix/store/ml1xqk2qxkr4vbvvfph756drcmcrh1fq-ghostty-1.2.3
error: '/nix/store/ml1xqk2qxkr4vbvvfph756drcmcrh1fq-ghostty-1.2.3' does not have a known deriver

$ nix config show | grep keep

@leana8959:faefox.devPrimrose (== 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.

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.

@antifuchs:asf.computerantifuchsdid the lix manual drop its favicon? I have a docs generator that was expecting one, but lately there isn't one in the generated output (or rather, there's only the default MDbook one)14:12:36
@antifuchs:asf.computerantifuchsoh wait, that was always the favicon. oops14:13:34

@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusthat looks like nixos actually15:42:27
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusi didn't see anything like this, could it be a random nixos change that happened at the same time?15:43:01
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusotherwise, what strace shows on daemon/client/etc. ?15:44:07
