cursed fix… we compare diff between upstream and ours and copy paste the changes and force push them to the releases.
I can’t imagine trying to update that with our master later on would possibly be a fun time, though.

Is there any possible workaround for this issue for the time being?
using upstream is the only fix we can provide. The team maintaining the soft fork is pretty much just me and anyone else who swings in. so pretty much just @srxl lol
Everyone else is focused on breaking up the mono repo.

Fine by me. I wish there were something I could do to help beyond bringing bugs to attention, but sadly I am only an eel.

do you use home-manager ?

I do use it. Could that be causing the issue?

i managed to reproduce the bug and i’m trying to understand what happening.
Could you try adding --keep-failed or --verbose to your build command ?

In my case from what i’m observing is when building the home-manager derivation it’s get stuck at the man-cache.drv

I did both --keep-failed and --verbose.

Temporary fix i can propose is to set “documentation.nixos.enable = false;” in your nixos config it’s prevent the bug from happening but you will not have local man/html/json doc. It’s might be because of a conflict between home-manager and auxolotl doc generation ?

Thanks for the workaround, I can verify it works. I upgraded to Lix and Auxolotl (Lixolotl? Auxolixl?) during my lunch break. Super easy

Working on a new release now! hopefully this should fix it.

The proximal cause is this part of the k3s module:
That gets globbed in to a JSON file to build the docs:
$ nix derivation show .#nixosConfigurations.carrot-cake.config.system.build.manual.nixos-configuration-reference-manpage | grep json
"buildCommand": "# Generate manpages.\nmkdir -p $out/share/man/man5\nnixos-render-docs -j $NIX_BUILD_CORES options manpage \\\n --revision 'release-24.05' \\\n /nix/store/pn0xzd4zqy9jb73a1cxing8sjl5ii4r8-options.json/share/doc/nixos/options.json \\\n $out/share/man/man5/configuration.nix.5\n",
"/nix/store/0mg10aaafjan67r9sxfdpm683903n3xv-options.json.drv": {
$ jq < /nix/store/3vpy95191rc3h3gnyi2qsviy2n5392gf-options.json/share/doc/nixos/options.json | grep -e '-nixos'
"text": "{\n configs = {\n \"registry.example.com:5000\" = {\n auth = {\n password = \"\";\n username = \"\";\n };\n tls = {\n ca_file = /nix/store/1in11x9pg68idxncvxlzdclpnbhs6ikf-nixos/modules/services/cluster/k3s/path;\n cert_file = /nix/store/1in11x9pg68idxncvxlzdclpnbhs6ikf-nixos/modules/services/cluster/k3s/path;\n key_file = /nix/store/1in11x9pg68idxncvxlzdclpnbhs6ikf-nixos/modules/services/cluster/k3s/path;\n };\n };\n };\n mirrors = {\n \"docker.io\" = {\n endpoint = [\n \"https://registry.example.com:5000\"\n ];\n };\n };\n}"
So the simple solution is commenting out that example in the module. I’m not sure why this doesn’t break upstream’s build though.

oh it doesn’t break in upstream because registries is a new option for aux =P

Thank you so much. (filler)
I’ve cherry picked the commits and pushed them to the respective branches. The problem should now be solved.
