default.nix flake-compat is broken

[Pacman99]

Expected Behavior

You should be able to use the repo's default.nix to access the shell or build your configuration.

Current Behavior

It gives the following error:

error: getting status of '/nix/store/flake.nix': No such file or directory

       … while evaluating 'callLocklessFlake'

Possible Solution

Steps to Reproduce

1. Run the recommended command: nix-shell https://github.com/divnix/devos/archive/core.tar.gz -A shell --show-trace

Context

This doesn't affect shell.nix. So if you clone the repository and run nix-shell that will go directly to shell.nix and theres no problem. The issue seems to occur when you use default.nix.

I don't actually know if this is a APIv1 problem, I remember experiencing this a while back. I had assumed it was because of my repository's changes. I didn't realize it was happening to the repo in general

[Pacman99]

@narice can you check if #286 fixes the issue for you too? It seems to help for me.

Yes! it is building right now ;) awesome work!

However I still have an issue after that:

fkl get core
error: cannot find flake attribute 'github:divnix/devos/core#defaultTemplate'

which is normal as in the flake there is not indeed this attribute, it was commented out during the API update I guess ;)

[nova-nowiz]

I would really like to help on this as this looks like a trivial thing but I cannot find where the fkl utility is defined x)
It is in this repository?

I went full detective mode digga was not named digga before the in-tree lib got removed.
Here is the relevent file: https://github.com/divnix/digga/blob/master/src/pkgs-lib/shell/flk.sh

I opened an issue here: #12
