Probably just something with the GHA environment, tbh. I wonder if the same occurs with latest Nix within the GHA ARM runners? My money would be on them failing as well. |

Yeah, that's probably right. I don't think it's version specific either. |
ARM runners are supposed to be more energy efficient than x86. Also, from limited testing, they appear to be faster for the eval jobs as well. Average run time for the "Outpaths (x86_64-linux)" job was 4m 27s, so far. In the first run, this job came in at 3m 9s. This effect did not show for other jobs, yet. The following two exceptions are made right now: - nixpkgs-lib-tests currently fails on the ARM runner building Nix 2.3 - nixpkgs-vet is currently pinned to a x86_64-linux only binary release
A bit easier to read.
GitHub has all the different runners, so we can just as well check that shell.nix works.

Average run time for the "Outpaths (x86_64-linux)" job was 4m 27s earlier. In the first few runs, this job came in between 3m 9s and 3m 20s, so far. This effect did not show for other jobs, yet.

Let's be good citizen, save some energy - and enjoy slightly faster eval in CI, shall we?
