`lerna watch` not working on arch linux

[simlmx]

Current Behavior

pnpm exec lerna watch -- echo \$LERNA_PACKAGE_NAME \$LERNA_FILE_CHANGE

does not do anything when I modify files. Actually sometimes it does it once or twice but then it stops working.

When I look at the nx logs, I see that it registers the file modifications (with an ever growing lag!), but they don't get to lerna.

I have tested this on 2 different OS: Arch Linux and Mac OS. The buggy behavior only happens on Arch Linux, everything works as expected on Mac OS. There is also no "ever growing lag" on Mac OS.

Expected Behavior

lerna properly responds to files changing, even on Arch Linux!

I don't know if this is a regression.

Steps to Reproduce

I have made a minimal repo reproducing the issue: https://github.com/simlmx/repro-lerna-watch See the instructions in the README.

Failure Logs / Configuration

When I modify a file, I see these nx logs:

[NX Daemon Server] - 2024-02-06T19:27:52.852Z - [WATCHER]: 0 file(s) created or restored, 0 file(s) modified, 2 file(s) deleted

<Here there is a lag that gets longer and longer every time I modify a file>
