[rubas]

I have the exact same issue (m1 here).

[winston0410]

Same issue here. Didn't work with different version of jdk.

[ggPeti]

Suspiciously, the builder complains of a collision with an empty target. I think this might have to do with the fact that in jdk's sourceman is a symlink itself. Maybe the symlinks are not followed deeply by builder.pl?

@gentcys I believe this can be closed, as the issue is with the package, not nix-darwin. The error messages are indeed confusing, but that has been fixed in nixpkgs - see https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/134215.

A workaround is to use (jdk.overrideAttrs (_: { postPatch = "rm man; ln -s ../zulu-15.jdk/Contents/Home/man man"; })) instead of jdk.

A similar problem was fixed for the jdk11 package: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/133806
