So my nixos-rebuild fails to build due to the recent error of: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/74916
I thought I'd give a go at trying to fix this, by referencing a previous commit's package
I added the following in my config (under one of the let statements):
nixpkgsMyStable = import (builtins.fetchTarball { url = https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/775fb69ed73e7cf6b7d3dd9853a60f40e8efc340.tar.gz; sha256 = "1w068b0ydw4c26mcjiwlzdfqcdk3rrwmfx4hxzgfhfwcz2nmh3if"; }) {}; I then replaced:
boot.kernelPackages = pkgs.linuxPackages_latest; with
boot.kernelPackages = nixpkgsMyStable.pkgs.linuxPackages_latest; However this fails with:
sudo nixos-rebuild switch building Nix... building the system configuration... error: assertion failed at /nix/store/0272yl38a4mc20i2a5078m85bldipbjm-source/pkgs/os-specific/linux/prl-tools/default.nix:9:1 (use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information) Is this possibly something to do with the newest kernel version? Or something I'm doing wrong in the above config?
