Although no, I don't think my fix is correct. I think my fix links the symbols to the original `openmpi` library, and not the ones from c2hs. I believe the...

Was able to make a minimal repro of the problem, extending the c2hs-binary-test branch from before: https://github.com/tweag/rules_haskell/compare/master...Infinisil:c2hs-binary-test Trying to build it, the output is: ``` $ bazel build //tests/c2hs:c2hs-bin WARNING:...

Unfortunately wasn't successful, but my attempt at fixing this now lives in https://github.com/tweag/rules_haskell/tree/c2hs-binary-test

``` [pid 97301] execve("/run/current-system/sw/bin/nix-prefetch-url", ["nix-prefetch-url", "--unpack", "https://github.com/infinisil/nix"..., "--name", "3d829c74b3dff74f211ef21d64def233"...], 0x7ffde1e29e38 /* 147 vars */ ``` `nix-prefetch-url` is called with the _basename_ of the url, not the name of the input!

Nah the docs team doesn't have write access to search.nixos.org, that's for the marketing team :)

Recently the [Packages Modules Working Group](https://discourse.nixos.org/t/working-group-member-search-module-system-for-packages/26574) started investigating whether something like the module system could be used to evaluate packages. We're tracking all work in [this repository](https://github.com/nixpkgs-architecture/pkgs-modules/), meeting weekly, but...

How is the error for Nix 2.3 users? That's the minimum version that Nixpkgs supports.

While we should worry about older Nix versions too, I don't think this is worth it even for newer Nix versions.
