Hi,

Nikita Karetnikov <nikita@karetnikov.org> skribis:

Can you check in the build log of 6kj7f8kz3h5fizir8l7nrxgras2ns3ww-m4-1.4.16
what the line “checking which shell to use for syscmd” says?  (Remember
that build logs are kept in /nix/var/log/nix/drvs or similar, depending
on your localstatedir.  Make sure the value passed to --prefix in that
log matches the one above.)

Here it reads this:

  checking which shell to use for syscmd... /nix/store/ryk1ywzz31kp4biclxq3yq6hpjycalyy-bash-4.2/bin/sh

If it chose /bin/sh, then it means that you built M4 out of the chroot
(or with /bin in the chroot), but now you’re trying to use it within a
chroot.
