Hi

I use Nix on Ubuntu and I notice I can’t build my config with the latest nixpkgs at the moment.

➜ nix flake lock --update-input nixpkgs
warning: updating lock file '/home/fomm/Documents/nix/flake.lock':

➜ home-manager switch
error: assertion '((pyproject != null) -> (format == null))' failed

I don’t use this pyproject thing so I am not too sure where to start checking.

Does anyone know how to debug this issue?

Thank you.
