So, a bit more tinkering revealed that most but not all of the overrides cause the issue:

• nixpkgs-review: causes infinite recursion
• nix-eval-jobs: No problem
• nix-fast-build: causes infinite recursion
• colmena: causes infinite recursion

Here is a minimal repro for playing:

{ pkgs, ... }:

{
  nixpkgs.hostPlatform = "x86_64-linux";

  # TODO debug why this yields infinite recursion
  nixpkgs.overlays = [
    (final: prev: {
      inherit (prev.lixPackageSets.stable)
        nixpkgs-review
        nix-eval-jobs
        nix-fast-build
        colmena
        ;
    })
  ];

  nix.package = pkgs.lixPackageSets.stable.lix;
  environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
    nixpkgs-review
    nix-eval-jobs
    nix-fast-build
    colmena
  ];

  boot.isContainer = true;
  fileSystems."/".fsType = "tmpfs";
}

Hi, I try to build an SD card image for my raspberry pi 3. I use the following command and the following imports.

"${modulesPath}/profiles/base.nix"
"${modulesPath}/installer/sd-card/sd-image.nix"

nixos-generate \
  --format sd-aarch64-installer \
  --system aarch64-linux \
  --configuration ./pi-sdcard.nix \
  --out-link sd-image

But I get the following error which states that the kernel is incompatible with the aarch64-linux host platform.

 error: Package ‘linux-rpi-6.6.51-stable_20241008’ in /nix/store/4xrrqhrrrxyfdf2npr5pmwrgyckdz183-source/pkgs/os-specific/linux/kernel/linux-rpi.nix:22 is not available on the requested hostPlatform:
         hostPlatform.config = "aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu"
         package.meta.platforms = [
           "armv5tel-linux"
           "armv6l-linux"
           "armv7a-linux"
           "armv7l-linux"
         ]
         package.meta.badPlatforms = [ ]
       , refusing to evaluate.

Do I need to specify another kernel or host platform?

Don't ask why I am posting this to the Lix room but here it goes:
Some good news finally :3

I went to the police station yesterday to file my criminal report/investigation request about whether Kaltiala has abused her official position by attending SEGM (a hate group) conferences as a lecturer, acting as their witness in the Florida court case that led to the denial of treatment for trans youth, and serving as an external “expert” in the UK Cass Review, which led to similar outcomes there. I’ve been working on this for 16 months and haven’t been able to talk about it much so that the anti-gender activists wouldn’t start deleting evidence, but now the materials are with the police in paper form, and I have duplicate electronic copies, so now I can share what I’ve been up to. You can share the news if you feel like it.
