Help

Hi everyone.
Today, I decided to update my system but got this error concerning dmraid, which makes os-prober fail, which makes grub fail, whick makes my update fail.

Note that I am on the unstable channel. Should I just fix dmevent_tool.c myself?

I have also the same problem on my config, also using unstable. However the most recent commit was made to prevent this from happening with the file inclusion here (dmraid: patch dmevent_tool.c to compile on modern gcc versions · NixOS/nixpkgs@f298cd7 · GitHub) so are the patches not applied or something ?

It takes a couple of days for a PR to make it into unstable once it’s merged. Be patient. Tracker: Nixpkgs PR #368470 ("dmraid: patch dmevent_tool.c to compile on modern gcc versions (#367926)") progress

Thanks for the heads up! I thought the problem was on my side, this is why I didn’t think to check upstream.
