Conflict with Determinate Nix with `nix.enable = false`
I have attempted to make the simplest possible flake needed to reproduce this issue:
{
description = "Simplified macOS Nix configuration";
inputs = {
nix.url = "https://flakehub.com/f/DeterminateSystems/nix/2";
nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixpkgs-24.11-darwin";
nix-darwin.url = "github:LnL7/nix-darwin/nix-darwin-24.11";
nix-darwin.inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
};
outputs = {
self,
nix,
nix-darwin,
nixpkgs,
...
}: {
darwinConfigurations = {
"Eriks-MacBook-Pro" = let
username = "erik";
system = "aarch64-darwin";
homedir = "/Users/${username}";
specialArgs = {inherit username system homedir self;};
in
nix-darwin.lib.darwinSystem {
inherit specialArgs;
modules = [
nix.darwinModules.default
{
nix.enable = false;
nixpkgs.hostPlatform = "aarch64-darwin";
system.stateVersion = 5;
}
];
};
};
packages."aarch64-darwin".default = self.darwinConfigurations."Eriks-MacBook-Pro".system;
};
}
Error Log:

I'm not sure what the workaround options are other than abandoning the Determinate Nix installation.
Hey folks, I just gave this a try and unfortunately I can't reproduce. I copied the above exactly, with the below flake.lock and it builds without error. Can you provide your flake.lock perhaps?
I would also note that I don't think you need the nix module from inputs.nix.url = "https://flakehub.com/f/DeterminateSystems/nix/2"; at all, but maybe I'm missing an important detail?
expand to see the the flake.lock ...

@grahamc I think it resolved itself after a few weeks as I think I tried it again a while back and it worked
ack! ok, thanks for following up! I just had someone swing by our discord about this bug a few minutes ago, which is how I found it. Feel free to reach out if something like this is causing you trouble :)
