homebrew.brews.*.{start,restart}_service crashes build

[BastienM]

Hi,

I started using start_service and restart_service on some brews and whenever used, the build would fail during the homebrew phase and more specifically when listing brew services.

When manually running brew services list I do get a list with both services in it.

I will attach the full nix files later today, as I don't have access to the machine right now.

Console output

[...]
Error: Failure while executing; `brew services list` exited with 127. Here's the output:
# empty stack trace

brews = [
	{
		name = "autoraise";
		args = ["with-dalternative_task_switcher"];
		restart_service = "changed";
		start_service = true;
	}
	{
		name = "sunshine-beta";
		restart_service = "changed";
		start_service = true;
	}
]

I am facing the same issue. I have no problems running brew services list and brew services restart colima manually.

Trying with the following config for homebrew.

# homebrew.nix
{
  config,
  lib,
  ...
}: {
  homebrew = {
    enable = true;

    onActivation = {
      autoUpdate = true;
      upgrade = true;
      cleanup = "zap";
    };
    taps = [
      "homebrew/bundle"
      "homebrew/services"
    ];

    brews = [
      "docker"
      "docker-buildx"
      "docker-completion"
      "docker-compose"
      {
        name = "colima";
        restart_service = "changed";
      }
    ];
  };
}
