How To Report A Bug

I am getting an error when I try to update - via flake.

error: gdtoolkit has been renamed to gdtoolkit_3 to distinguish from version 4

How do I report this, as it seems to be something upstream?

In general, Bugs can be reported via Issues · NixOS/nixpkgs · GitHub

The error you are seeing, however, is not a bug. It was introduced in

https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/291040/files#diff-29ed0f5fda84c91253503c1664d60a194a324e29518d472adf846f30b8db52e3

to signal that gdtoolkit has to be specified with the desired version, e.g. as gdtoolkit_3 or gdtoolkit_4.

Ah thanks. But I don’t actually have gdtoolkit

It might be that is has been added to something you pull into your system. You can try and bisect on NixOS master to see which commit breaks evaluation of your config.
