My bad, I didn't see the previous discussion on the subject. To me, the lack of generality would be unexpected: if I have a package with a source, I expect to be able to get that source, whatever the source may be. Maxime's minimal example shows that it could happen for a variety of different reasons, not just a --with-source= flag. I don't know what a proper fix for it would be though, since we're passing things around that we pretend are derivations but are not, and in many places. Best, -- Josselin Poiret
