Can't reproduce on nixos-unstable. Which channel are you using?

pghvlaans commented 2 years ago

nixpkgs-unstable

What did you try to build?

pghvlaans commented 2 years ago

I was trying to install steam.

SuperSandro2000 commented 2 years ago

Can't reproduce on current nixpkgs-unstable when doing nix build .#steam.

Can you provide more details? I tried this on commit 7b3e907a6fef935794b5049c2c57c519853deb90. Otherwise I am closing this issue.

pghvlaans commented 2 years ago

I tried again on the new commit: nix-env -iA nixpkgs.steam. The log of the failed build is below.

Is there anything more specific that would be helpful?

SuperSandro2000 commented 2 years ago

I actually got another idea. Please run the following command and compare the sandbox paths to mine:

$ nix show-config | grep sandbox-paths
sandbox-paths = /bin/sh=/nix/store/kas8m76rr10h78hfl3yk66akdi08bkf9-busybox-static-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl-1.35.0/bin/busybox

pghvlaans commented 2 years ago

Ah, it's empty! Maybe that's the issue.

[pghvlaans@ambiorix] ~ $ nix show-config | grep sandbox-paths
sandbox-paths =

pghvlaans commented 2 years ago

Yes, that was it. Adding a "sandbox-paths" line to /etc/nix/nix.conf and restarting the daemon got past the error. Sorry about the noise; I'll close the issue.

Thank you very much!

On NixOS this is configured automatically and I did the same mistake a year ago.
