| McBeth | It's been months since I've successfully built my os. I was/am still on 2.93.2 and it keeps failing on
perl5.40.0-Test2-Harness-1.000161 failed with exit code 1
I've been singularly unsuccessful googling solutions for this, and I've been aggressively pulling things out of my config without anything getting better. | 02:00:35 |
| McBeth | I'm using flakes for my config, and have nixos-unstable, lix, home-manager, and nixos-hardware (all this is on a framework gen 11 intel) | 02:05:37 |

 raitobezarius | 2.93.2 had a known critical bug, do you have your configuration somewhere public? | 03:00:32 |
| raitobezarius | Can you provide more logs so we can see what we could offer? | 03:00:55 |
| McBeth | I can do that. I knew I wasn't providing enough info. I've never really learned how to get the logs, but I'll work on getting the configs uploaded | 03:11:21 |

 just1602 | Can you provide the error you get in your terminal when you do nixos-rebuild or whatever command you run to update your machine?
If you didn't run nix-collect-garbage you could boot into a previous generation with a previous lix version to update to the latest version? Otherwise I think there's a way to use a static build to rebuild your system, but raitobezarius is really the expert since he lead the fix when it appeared.

| McBeth | I also have tried the same thing, but with a nix-shell -p lix, which gives me 2.91-3, and get the same error | 03:36:23 |

| just1602 | Here's the blog post to fix the issue with 2.93.2: https://lix.systems/blog/2025-06-27-lix-critical-bug/
According to this article, 2.93.2 shouldn't be affected. Are you able to do repair your store first and then see if it works? | 03:40:10 |
