Consistently getting error: path '/nix/store/52k8rqihijagzc2lkv17f4lw9kmh4ki6-gnugrep-3.11-info' is not valid while running nixos-rebuild switch --upgrade.
I tried collecting garbage and rerunning multiple times even without upgrade, tried removing coreutils collecting garbage and rerunning, but nothing seems to solve it. I would very much like to not reinstall the whole thing. Any help is very much appreciated!!
Here is my configuration.nix.
Im on the unstable branch.
Yes, I’ve been having the same issue since this morning. I’ve not been able to work around it yet.
i ran nixos-rebuild switch --repair and it seems to fix this issue.
Yea, this is a bug in Nix 2.18: error: path is not valid using nix ==2.18.0 · Issue #9052 · NixOS/nix · GitHub
Only nixUnstable has been updated to 2.18 though, so you if you set nix.package = pkgs.nixUnstable, that’s why you’re experiencing this. Shouldn’t happen if you remove that and let it use the default Nix version.
