raitobezarius: I think I'm running into another auto-allocate-uids issue:

error: builder for '/nix/store/pc5v80nx8jivzxhxffm70bs1zh63qvyw-xz-5.8.2.tar.gz.drv' failed due to signal 6 (Aborted);
       last 2 log lines:
       > terminate called after throwing an instance of 'nix::Error'
       >   what():  error: cannot determine user's home directory
       For full logs, run:
              nix log /nix/store/pc5v80nx8jivzxhxffm70bs1zh63qvyw-xz-5.8.2.tar.gz.drv

The derivation is a simple FOD:

@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248)Just at the right moment11:46:58
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248)Can you open an issue? We're looking at stabilizing these things11:47:09
@rvdp:infosec.exchangeRamses 🇵🇸https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/110914:15:38
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248)we can't reproduce on our side14:28:04
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248)any details?14:28:05
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248)perhaps the coredump file of the SIGABRT builder14:28:31
@rvdp:infosec.exchangeRamses 🇵🇸How would I get a hold of that?14:30:01
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248)does coredumpctl offers you one?14:30:10
@rvdp:infosec.exchangeRamses 🇵🇸Nope...14:30:17
@rvdp:infosec.exchangeRamses 🇵🇸Ah wait14:30:44
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248)if it's reproducible, you could try to hook gdb on the right process (probably the subdaemon) and follow children, but this is not super convenient to do14:30:44
@rvdp:infosec.exchangeRamses 🇵🇸It's sorted the other way around, I think it does14:30:53
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248)nice14:30:58
@rvdp:infosec.exchangeRamses 🇵🇸
       Message: Process 494722 (builtin-builder) of user 872415232 terminated abnormally without generating a coredump.
Coredump entry has no core attached (neither internally in the journal nor externally on disk).
14:32:27
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248)yeah SIGABRT alas14:32:34
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248)but you did abort in the builtin-builder14:32:38
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248)ok14:32:40
@rvdp:infosec.exchangeRamses 🇵🇸Anything else that I could provide? gdb might also not be so easy because the process crashes immediately14:33:26
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248)pennae wrote in the issue14:33:57
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248)the next step is strace14:34:00
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248)do it with direct store access probably14:34:06
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248)so something like14:34:07
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248) NIX_REMOTE=local sudo nix-build ... 14:34:13
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius (DECT: 7248) * NIX_REMOTE=local sudo strace ... nix-build ... 14:34:17
