`hoogle generate` times out

[RobWalt]

I'm on NixOS and I'm getting

Starting generate

If you try and fetch https://raw.githubusercontent.com/haskell/haskell-platform/master/hptool/src/Releases2015.hs with curl or similar does it work for you? It looks like you are going through a proxy?

Just had another try and it looks like it works now. Seems to be NixOS related since I updated my system today to track a more recent version of the package repository.

Sorry for the trouble 🙈

For anyone facing the same issue: It's fixed by updating to a pinned version of the nixos-23.05 branch with a hash that is older than the date 24.06.
