GHC 9.2.2 weird spec-core error

[ilyakooo0]

I have no idea what caused this and I don't completely understand what the error is about. Might somehow be related to #1393

Try adding modules = [{ reinstallableLibGhc = true; }]; to your project arguments.

[ilyakooo0]

When I add that I get:

error: store path '/nix/store/zfh6kicb6q6n1vmyk29piyppbr35blw1-ghc-src' is not allowed to have references

[hamishmack]

Oh interesting. Is there a way I can reproduce this?

[ilyakooo0]

I'll try to create an example in a couple of hours.

nix build with flakes enabled reproduces the error

What nix version? I was using 2.7 I updated to 2.8 and ran nix-store --delete /nix/store/zfh6kicb6q6n1vmyk29piyppbr35blw1-ghc-src and nix build --system x86_64-darwin and it still worked fine.

[ilyakooo0]

I'm on 2.4

Might be a bug

[hamishmack]
