`upgrading 'solaar-1.1.5' to 'solaar-1.1.8'` breaks user profile `error: this derivation has bad 'meta.outputsToInstall' `

brodul commented 1 year ago

Describe the bug

After nix-env -u packages can not be installed or removed.

UPDATE: Turns out that upgrading 'solaar-1.1.5' to 'solaar-1.1.8' breaks the profile.

An error error: this derivation has bad 'meta.outputsToInstall' is returned on install or remove.

Steps To Reproduce

I can reproduce this multiple times by reverting to a generation and upgrading with `nix-env -u`.

Steps to reproduce the behavior: ```console brodul:Downloads/ $ nix-env --list-generations brodul:Downloads/ $ nix-env --switch-generation 255 switching profile from version 256 to 255 brodul:Downloads/ $ nix-env -i poetry installing 'poetry-1.4.2' building '/nix/store/4zwxcin4ikhmwgdkqy2rwmb4af5ya294-user-environment.drv'... brodul:Downloads/ $ nix-env --list-generations brodul:Downloads/ $ nix-env -u upgrading 'buf-1.13.1' to 'buf-1.17.0' upgrading 'act-0.2.34' to 'act-0.2.43' upgrading 'clickhouse-22.8.5.29' to 'clickhouse-22.8.11.15' upgrading 'velero-1.9.3' to 'velero-1.10.2' upgrading 'tanka-0.23.1' to 'tanka-0.24.0' upgrading 'pinentry-1.2.0' to 'pinentry-1.2.1' [...] building '/nix/store/s9n6024vns905h4rl02j0ap10z1hl1rp-user-environment.drv'... brodul:Downloads/ $ nix-env -i poetry replacing old 'poetry-1.4.2' installing 'poetry-1.4.2' error: this derivation has bad 'meta.outputsToInstall' brodul:Downloads/ $ nix-env --switch-generation 255 switching profile from version 258 to 255 brodul:Downloads/ $ nix-env -i poetry installing 'poetry-1.4.2' brodul:Downloads/ $ nix-env -i poetry replacing old 'poetry-1.4.2' installing 'poetry-1.4.2' brodul:Downloads/ $ nix-env -i helm replacing old 'helm-3.9.0' installing 'helm-3.11.2' building '/nix/store/l2lfpqnnv6hhyqb9a0hcl78fl97vc3rp-user-environment.drv'... ```

UPDATE: I have isolated the issue even more:

Expected behavior

Upgrading packages with nix-env -u should not break users profile. Upgrading a package solaar should not break users profile. User should be able to remove and install packages after upgrade

brodul commented 1 year ago

I am trying to triage if that is a nix issue or a problem in a set of packages.

brodul commented 1 year ago

What I did is iterate trough all my packages with:

for package in $(nix-env -q  | sed -nE "s/(.*)-([0-9].*)/\1/p"); do
    echo "Testing $package ..."
    nix-env -u "$package"
    if [[ $? != 0 ]]; then
        echo "$package is broken"
    fi
done

I have reverted to a working profile 255 and isolated the problem:

brodul:scripts/ $ nix-env -u sops

I would conclude that upgrading 'solaar-1.1.5' to 'solaar-1.1.8' breaks my users profile.

UPDATE: I have updated issue description.
