| I hit this today in the nixos installer: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/5017 I've got a nixConfig in my flake.nix to easily set stuff, when it contains the ca-derivations experimental feature it crashes. I suppose this is a weird edge case I hit and a bug? | 13:37:51 | |

| Does anyone know how to run tests just by them selves without meson. Because I am trying to run tests to get to the point of failing tests both locally and CI of this pr: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/actions/runs/21536152140/job/62062248779?pr=15041 | 17:23:45 | |

It should be this: TEST_NAME="post-hook" NIX_REMOTE='' PS4='+(${BASH_SOURCE[0]-$0}:$LINENO) '' tests/functional/post-hook.sh but it's not running the thing... | 17:25:47 | |
Nvm it's TEST_NAME="post-hook" NIX_REMOTE='' PS4='+(${BASH_SOURCE[0]-$0}:$LINENO)' tests/functional/post-hook.sh. | 17:27:43 | |

John Ericson: Hmm interesting error: post-build-hook: error: not an absolute path: 'netrc'. Idk where to start to fix that. | 17:47:04 | |

Is there some way to specify the name of the output path when using nix flake prefetch or fetchTree? I digged a little through the source code, and it seems like name is an attribute that defaults to source and passed around, but I couldn't find any way to change it to something other than the default. | 20:27:47 | |
