The queue runner used to special-case `localhost` as a remote builder: Rather than using the normal remote-build (using the `cmdBuildDerivation` command), it was using the (generally less efficient, except when running against localhost) `cmdBuildPaths` command because the latter didn't require a privileged Nix user (so made testing easier − allowing to run hydra in a container in particular). However: 1. this means that the build loop can follow two discint code paths depending on the setup, the irony being that the most commonly used one in production (the “non-localhost” case) isn't the one used in the testsuite (because all the tests run against a local store); 2. It turns out that the “localhost” version is buggy in relatively obvious ways − in particular a failure in a fixed-output derivation or a hash mismatch isn't reported properly; 3. If the “run in a container” use-case is indeed that important, it can be (partially) restored using a chroot store (which wouldn't behave excactly the same way of course, but would be more than good-enough for testing) |
