@emilazy:matrix.orgemily oh, probably the issue is that you're depending on nix. 21:45:27
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyrather than the correct component package.21:45:31
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilybecause of the split build.21:45:33
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyI guess it's a bug in the combined package.21:45:42

@fzakaria:one.ems.hostfzakaria

Here is another "oddity" of the separate SOs.
I want to just pull in nix-store but it complains:

The program must call nix::initNix()

That only exists in nix-main :(

03:33:09
@fzakaria:one.ems.hostfzakaria I think you can do initLibStore so the message is just wrong 03:34:03
