Build fails for nix darwin on MacOS sequoia x86_64.

[Buddharta]

Installing mac-app-util with nix darwing flake fails with the following error

error: builder for '/nix/store/wv13fz6a9h1nm5bn3pv1mjma3bh55944-system-alexandria.drv' failed with exit code 1;

This seems to be related this bug with sbcl on MacOS sequoia x86_64: https://bugs.launchpad.net/sbcl/+bug/2085706 with versions 2.4.10 and 2.4.9, since I get the same error when running sbcl (version 2.4.10) alone. Maybe changing the dependency version to a newer one fixes the problem.

My system:

 - system: `"x86_64-darwin"`
 - host os: `Darwin 24.0.0, macOS 15.0.1`
 - multi-user?: `yes`
 - sandbox: `no`
 - version: `nix-env (Nix) 2.24.11`
 - channels(root): `"nixpkgs"`

I have tested this with the nixpkgs-unstable branch.

Thanks for the bug report. I followed the link and kind of wish I hadn't 😂. God what a depressing read.

Annnnyway I don't have a sequoia x86_64 machine on which to test so I'd like to ask for your help finding a working sbcl version. Could you try:

nix run github:nixos/nixpkgs/99c0b2ca5c64#sbcl -- --version # should be 2.4.9
nix run github:nixos/nixpkgs/5b1e84da9db7#sbcl -- --version # should be 2.4.8
nix run github:nixos/nixpkgs/93ac88fecd81#sbcl -- --version # should be 2.4.7
nix run github:nixos/nixpkgs/0ad7ed487c49#sbcl -- --version # should be 2.4.6

What's the latest version which works for you?

Thanks 👍
