Describe the bug
Lines in the multiline log-format output stay around when they shouldn't in some cases
Steps To Reproduce
Run a build with remote builders and --log-format multiline
observe how some lines ("copying ... to ...") stay visible and are re-printed when the view is refreshed even after that particular build step on the builder is done
Expected behavior
The multiline log-format should give an overview of the currently running build steps
nix --versionoutputnix (Lix, like Nix) 2.92.0-dev-pre20250105-8c1ece9Additional context
Add any other context about the problem here.
Can you give the remote Nix version as well?
Remote nix version is a recent Lix HEAD as wellLet me double checkCan not reproduce anymore
I retract this issue for now, unless I see it again
Seeing the following output
electron-unwrapped, thunderbird-unwrapped have already started building, so the whole "querying cache.nixos.org" IMO must be outdated lines
local is running
nix (Lix, like Nix) 2.93.0-dev-pre20250410-81d4769Remote is running
nix (Lix, like Nix) 2.92.0-devpre20241211_dirty(dirty because of packaging changes, not code changes)activity tracing is currently completely busted because the nix logging system is a steaming pile of weakly interacting global state that can explode at any moment. fixing this is going to be quite involved
I haven't seen this since a while, and I've been doing a lot of remote builds.
