If fallback is enabled, temporarily disable substituters after a failure
Otherwise, we just keep asking the substituter for other .narinfo
files, which can take a very long time due to retries/timeouts.

Merge pull request #2400 from matthewbauer/patch-9
Get effective user in Nix commands
2018-09-05 13:28:23 +02:00
Matthew Bauer 74f6d8767d Get effective user in Nix commands
‘geteuid’ gives us the user that the command is being run as,
including in setuid modes. By using geteuid to determind id, we can
avoid the ‘sudo -i’ hack when upgrading Nix. So now, upgrading Nix on
macOS is as simple as:

$ sudo nix-channel --update
$ sudo nix-env -u

$ sudo launchctl stop org.nixos.nix-daemon
$ sudo launchctl start org.nixos.nix-daemon
or
$ sudo systemctl restart nix-daemon

nix doctor: only perform path/profile checks with a daemon/local store
Not all store types LegacySSHStore support these operations and it
doesn't really make sense to check those.

nix doctor: add check for profile roots

nix doctor: add warning for multiple versions
It's pretty easy to unintentionally install a second version of nix
into the user profile when using a daemon install.  In this case it
looks like nix was upgraded while the nix-daemon is probably still
unning an older version.

nix doctor: handle serve protocol
The serve protocol used by LegacySSHStore has a different major and
shouldn't be compared to PROTOCOL_VERSION.

nix doctor: add warning if client/daemon protocol mismatches
A protocol mismatch can sometimes cause problems when using specific
features with an older daemon. For example:

Nix 2.0 changed the way files are compied to the store.  The daemon is
backwards compatible and can still handle older clients, however a 1.11
nix-daemon isn't forwards compatible.
