Oh, apparently you need to use findmnt to correctly list mounts. So I managed to figure it out: since nix-vm-test uses NixOS test framework, it still mounts the /nix/store from the host…
My understanding is that unpacking fails because the /tmp path got cleaned up by the system, hence the "directory doesn't exist" error message. The error message is accurate - the tmpdir is…
Thanks for the report!
My theory was that /nix/store is on a different filesystem. rename only works for the same filesystem, so it fails with a somewhat cryptic error message. But alas, I…
Thanks for the report! Can you tell me more about the environment?
What I suspect has happened is that nix was installed, and lix-installer was launched to install lix. The installer…
I think that's expected. MacOS 15 Sequoia update changed something about gids, so it needs an upgrade operation. The upstream has it, and we cherry-picked it. Can you run `lix-installer repair…

Modifying the exporter is probably fastest here
Why does it try to fork/exec anyway?
I looked at the code for a few minutes and my best guess is that Alloy uses fork/exec to run asprof in a separate process, and maybe it re-runs it every…
this is part of an overall view that the installer should eventually not need to exist as a separate special entity: the installer would at that point just be an option to a statically built…
What's wrong with vendored asprof, exactly?
I'm not sure how easy it would be to patch Alloy, but from looking at the docs of asprof, it seems not very user-friendly at all. It pretty much does…
Seems like installer knows how to substitute now.

Sorry sorry, I think it's my bad habit of thinking 20 years ahead showing up again. A concise way to formulate my thoughts would be more like this: "rewriting in Rust should be a separate…
Let's create a separate issue for porting the protocol part to Rust, and make this issue only about simplifying the existing C++ code. This is a much easier, smaller task to handle, with immediate…
AWS authentication is really complex and feature-rich. There's SSO, MFA, IMDS, IAM... aws-vault does a good job describing those.…
