The HTML manual broke because of https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/353513.

[bbigras]

@dotlambda It's not related? It seems to involve man and fish-completion.

[dotlambda]

@bbigras Stop spamming. Your issue is not about the manual.

[bbigras]

Spamming? What's with the condescending tone?

I was just asking for precisions since you only gave a :-1: without any details.

It could be reasonable to think there might be a link between the 2 issues since both involved man-paths and possibly broke today.

[dotlambda]

What's with the condescending tone?

I didn't mean to be condescending.

Your issue stems from the use of Lix, c.f. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/355745#issuecomment-2480206835. It is entirely unrelated to home-manager.

[knightpp]

Thanks! Workaround: disable manual.

manual.html.enable = lib.mkForce false;

[fricklerhandwerk]

Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks @knightpp for reporting. @getpsyched and me sort this out ASAP.

[GetPsyched]

Thanks for your patience, everyone. I apologise for the inconveniences caused.

A fix has been merged into nixpkgs master; now we have to wait for it to land in nixos-unstable, after which I will bump the changes in #6118.
