Interactive Nix shells exhibit the same problems, and adding --pure to the first invocation does not help.
Works for me on 560fd87 in img/app. What were you testing? Logs?
I think the problem only arises when there is a dependency that default.nix knows about but the makefile doesn't. nix-shell appears to import default.nix directly, so $ nix-build default.nix inside a Nix shell does not update various paths (like the path to the kernel) that the makefile needs. I think it would be better for the makefile to import the variables from Nix if possible. -- Sincerely, Demi Marie Obenour (she/her/hers)
