during setup-system install I have run into this sort of corrupted setup.bash file.

looking in this file is some truncated half dead file:

)
GO_LINTING_INSTALL='yes'

removing it, and re-running

setup-system install

nets the same results, and the above strange setup.bash file is recreated in its half dead state.

Thank you for the report.

Can you attach a copy of your setup.bash file in a gist or email it to b@bevry.me if it is private, as there likely is something in there that https://github.com/bevry/dorothy/blob/master/commands/dorothy-config and https://github.com/bevry/dorothy/blob/master/commands/config-helper are struggling with.

@balupton unfortunately the entirety of the file was what I had posted earlier

)
GO_LINTING_INSTALL='yes'

and while repeatable at the time, I just began doing all the individual jobs like setup-utils etc individually. I can now do the install successfully without it failiing (*with the exception that I cannot seem to include ksh without it freezing, but that is perphaps a separate issue). Unfortunately, I am unable to nail down the exact cause. I am going to close for now, I will re-open if I can uncover any more information.

EDIT: in addition to this setup on arch linux I am mirroring all of the rc files into a NixOS install and will try and help with that issue as well if i can get more information on things are failing in nixos.
