@mequbic:matrix.orgiqubic (she/her) What should I do if Nix is refusing to build a Haskell Library for me? Right now, hip is failing to build! https://hackage.haskell.org/package/hip 03:30:09
@mequbic:matrix.orgiqubic (she/her)
error: Package ‘hip-1.5.6.0’ in /nix/store/aqhcr0kv7d91rfm0ca77rbakjk5gkbq6-source/pkgs/development/haskell-modules/hackage-packages.nix:330406 is marked as broken, refusing to evaluate.

       a) To temporarily allow broken packages, you can use an environment variable
          for a single invocation of the nix tools.

            $ export NIXPKGS_ALLOW_BROKEN=1

          Note: When using `nix shell`, `nix build`, `nix develop`, etc with a flake,
                then pass `--impure` in order to allow use of environment variables.

       b) For `nixos-rebuild` you can set
         { nixpkgs.config.allowBroken = true; }
       in configuration.nix to override this.

       c) For `nix-env`, `nix-build`, `nix-shell` or any other Nix command you can add
         { allowBroken = true; }
       to ~/.config/nixpkgs/config.nix.


       note: trace involved the following derivations:
       derivation 'mh26'
