any idea regarding this nix behavior?

That’s a bug!

One of the packages you’re installing might be causing it? Have you tried them individually?

4

sorry, did not look properly to what is/was installed

  • chromium is not working … (doesn’t makes sense to use unstable :slight_smile:
5

Do you still get a core dump when only installing chromium?

6

Could you run: nix-env --version

7

nix-env (Nix) 2.3.10

8

Upgrade to Nix 2.3.15.

that works
