I tried this for several days now but i can’t find the reason for it:
In configuration.nix i’ve defined:
nix.settings.experimental-features = [ "nix-command" ];
system.activationScripts.diff = ''
if [[ -e /run/current-system ]]; then
${pkgs.nix}/bin/nix store diff-closures /run/current-system "$systemConfig" | grep -w "→" | grep -w "KiB" | column --table --separator " ,:" | ${pkgs.choose}/bin/choose 0:1 -4:-1 | column --table | sort -k5,5gr
fi
'';
It works but it doesn’t sort the output regarding column 5:

How is this possible? What am i missing?
There is no error output and sort is in coreutils just as grep and column which work fine.
