Do you mean that the drv file is generated using a new daemon then this
drv file is “offloaded” to another machine using an older daemon and
thus fails to build it?

Other solutions are: downgrade the daemon of one of the machine or
update the daemon of other machines, no?
Why would the latter not be possible?
Cheers
