I changed my nixos configuration flake from 23.05 to 23.11
nixos 23.11 comes with a new libc version: 2.38
before doing nix-shell -p
ldd --version
ldd (GNU libc) 2.38

It is quite problematic for me, because I have a project with webgpu that I am using with a specific shell.nix and the driver is not compatible anymore.
nix-shell -p vulkan-tools

ERROR: [Loader Message] Code 0 : vkCreateInstance: Found no drivers!
Cannot create Vulkan instance.
This problem is often caused by a faulty installation of the Vulkan driver or attempting to use a GPU that does not support Vulkan.
ERROR at /build/source/vulkaninfo/vulkaninfo.h:677:vkCreateInstance failed with ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER
Did I forgot to update something else after sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#my-config ?
nix-channel --list
nixos https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-23.11
It is confusing for me, because I expect nix-shell to use the current environment with its libc version.
