The removed lines converted the flake path passed by the command line from `/some/path` to `git+file:///some/path`. This technically shouldn't cause any issues, however running `nixos-rebuild switch` inside a directory `/nix/store` will cause the switch to fail and leave a partially construct generation (see issue #144811 for details). By itself this shouldn't be too much of an issue, however thanks to another issue in `systemd-boot-builder.py` this can leave the system in a broken state for those using `boot.loader.systemd-boot` (AFAIK the default), where future `nixos-rebuild switch` will fail (see issue #93694 for details). The issue can be fixed by running `nix-env -p /nix/var/nix/profiles/system --delete-generations old`, however this makes newbies very confused and it is showing in our support threads in Matrix and Discourse (see https://discourse.nixos.org/t/need-help-on-failure-of-building-my-configuration/16842). Keep in mind this is a workaround. The actual issue seems to be in nix itself (see: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/5510). See also #150065 for an alternative fix that caused other issues. Kudos for @figsoda for figuring out this fix. |
