@oak:universumi.fioak 🏳️‍🌈♥️ Actually I think it happens while regenerate-hackage-packages.sh calls regenerate-transitive-broken-packages.sh 13:14:27
@oak:universumi.fioak 🏳️‍🌈♥️ https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/400784 I see there's this issue which was closed by sterni last week, I was able to reproduce it :D I have nix (Nix) 2.28.4 14:08:19
@oak:universumi.fioak 🏳️‍🌈♥️ * https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/400784 I see there's this issue which was opened by sterni which was closed last week, I was able to reproduce it :D I have nix (Nix) 2.28.4. I'm trying to update to 2.28.5 which seems to be the latest on stable 14:11:55
@oak:universumi.fioak 🏳️‍🌈♥️Seems to happen also with Nix version 2.30.2 and 2.30.3, I first saw this on my macOS system and then I switched to NixOS to see it also happening there14:24:34

Anyone recognize this?

In reply to @jean-paul.:matrix.org
nope, Linux - but CircleCI

Just guessing, but is it because the kernel has IPv6 disabled via sysctl or perhaps even via kconfig?

Nix builds are sensitive to the host kernel.

@teoc:matrix.orgteo (they/he)I know the nixpkgs build of GHC edits the settings file, so I wanted to give y'all a heads up that the ghc-toolchain line of work is replacing the settings file, so it's likely that you'll need to make some changes here. See: https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/merge_requests/1450013:48:05

@jean-paul.:matrix.orgjean-paul.Seems likely I guess. I don't know how to learn about CircleCI's kernel configuration. Annoyingly, zlib test suite also fails. Seems like that should be less sensitive to the kernel but 🤷14:45:54
@jean-paul.:matrix.orgjean-paul.I assume more folks than me want to use Nix on CircleCI14:46:10
@sternenseemann:systemli.orgsterniNow I'm scared about arithmetic regressions in 9.10.3… https://github.com/Bodigrim/arithmoi/issues/22314:58:30
@sternenseemann:systemli.orgsterniso far nothings else like that happened, though14:59:08
