Regression test for #9579
…o a symlink out of the store Bind-mounting symlinks is apparently not possible, which is why the thing was failing. Fortunately, symlinks are small, so we can fallback to copy them at no cost. Fix #9579 Co-authored-by: Artturin <[email protected]>
Doesn't change much, but brings a bit more consistency to the code

Thanks @thufschmitt for picking this up, I am sorry I let the last one stagnate. |

NixOS#10456 fixed the addition of symlink store paths to the sandbox, but also made it so that the hardcoded sandbox paths (like `/etc/hosts`) were now bind-mounted without following the possible symlinks. This made these files unreadable if there were symlinks (because the sandbox would now contain a symlink to an unreachable file rather than the underlying file). In particular, this broke FOD derivations on NixOS as `/etc/hosts` is a symlink there. Fix that by canonicalizing all these hardcoded sandbox paths before adding them to the sandbox.

This breaks on NixOS when having static resolv.conf. Nix now copies the /etc/resolv.conf symlink (pointing to /etc/static) to the sandbox, resulting in a dangling symlink and breaking all DNS resolution inside the sandbox. 2.19.4: 2.19.5: |
