Re: Binary substituter

Having discussed it today, the problem seems to relate to the use of Guile 2.0.5: the web client would not work as expected, and thus the substituter would erroneously think that the queried store paths are missing on hydra.gnu.org, and cache that. I believe that commit 1c9e7d6 partly solves that.

Re: Binary substituter

Starting from eba783b, the substituter maintains a local cache (by default under /nix/var/nix/substitute-binary/cache) of lookups of binaries. So if you look for a given /nix/store file name several times in a row, only the first time does it actually connect to hydra.gnu.org to check if it’s ther

Binary substituter

Hello, Commit f65cf81 adds the beginning of a “binary substituter”. The substituter (in Nix parlance) is the mechanism by which a pre-built binary can be substituted to a locally-built binary. The idea is that, when you’re about to build, say, /nix/store/xxx-emacs-24.3.1, the daemon ask
