I last flashed my flake.lock in June, so I might be out of date, but my rigs can’t reliably include the line number in my code that led to the duck-typing fiasco deep in the core of someLanguage.withPackages.fuck.WTF.this.

Fix the fucking “—show-trace” thing folks. Seriously.

Out of all cases when I used --show-trace, I can remember it being useful only once or twice. I gave up and just sprinkled builtins.trace.

IIRC debugger comes with nix 2.9 and nixpkgs for 22.05 still has 2.8.x.
