fetchTarball does not support hard links · Issue #10395 · NixOS/nix · GitHub
Has been here for a few months, but came up again recently with Nixpkgs-generated tarballs.
Hard to fix with the current infrastructure, as the logic maps archives to nar entries, and Nar files can’t contain hard links.
We can hack things around by having a hardlink_callback in the extraction logic that will replace the link by its target.
Assigned to @edolstra.
@ericson2314: the file system object sink interface could contain a “create hard link” method. I think this is OK because this interface is used for decoding NARs and not creating them.
