Thank you for the report: appreciate it. I need to into this more: not sure if this is easy to fix currently. Though might tie into the fedora patch you allude too. However things may improve in 2.33 perhaps since I think the manpages there were decoupled from mdbook perhaps (which we don't have in fedora ((yet anyway))). I believe this is fixed in nix-2.33 which is now built for Rawhide at least. I will probably backport 2.33 to F44 later (I just updated it to 2.32). FEDORA-2026-8c7366e046 (nix-2.34.5-1.fc44) has been submitted as an update to Fedora 44. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2026-8c7366e046 FEDORA-2026-8c7366e046 (nix-2.34.5-1.fc44) has been pushed to the Fedora 44 stable repository. If problem still persists, please make note of it in this bug report. |
On Fedora 43 `nix-shell --help` or `man 1 nix-shell` contains `{{#include ./opt-common.md}}` in the "Options" section. This appears to be a packaging issue, since I cannot reproduce it on NixOS 25.11. It might be related to bug #2415126. Reproducible: Always Additional Information: NixOS 25.11 has `nix-env --version`: nix-env (Nix) 2.31.2 Fedora 43 has: ``` ❯ dnf info nix Installed packages Name : nix Epoch : 0 Version : 2.31.3 Release : 1.fc43 Architecture : x86_64 Installed size : 0.0 B Source : nix-2.31.3-1.fc43.src.rpm From repository : updates Summary : A purely functional package manager URL : https://github.com/NixOS/nix License : LGPL-2.1-or-later Description : Nix is a purely functional package manager. : It allows multiple versions of a package to be installed side-by-side, : ensures that dependency specifications are complete, : supports atomic upgrades and rollbacks, : allows non-root users to install software, and has many other features. : It is the basis of the NixOS Linux distribution, : but it can be used equally well under other Unix systems. : : See the README.fedora.md file for setup instructions.
