[Bug]: devbox hangs after downloading nixpkgs registry

Open dudicoco opened this issue 2 years ago • 12 comments

Current Behavior (bug) When running devbox install, if the nix packages registry needs to be downloaded, devbox hangs for a few minutes after downloading the registry:

$ devbox install
Ensuring packages are installed.
Ensuring nixpkgs registry is downloaded.
[33.2 MiB DL]
*hangs here*

Since nothing is printed to the screen at this point it is unclear why it hangs.

Expected Behavior (fix) Devbox should either print to the screen what it is doing at that point if this is expected behavior, or it should not hang after the registry has been downloaded.

Additional context

$ devbox version       
0.5.13
{
  "packages": [
    "[email protected]"
  ]
}
