Jeeze, something went wrong - macOS after 11.6.2 upgrade

[jeromebaum]

Describe the bug

I upgraded macOS to 11.6.2 (from I think 11.6.1). I previously had nix + home-manager installed. After the upgrade, nothing nix related was on my $PATH anymore. I tried to re-run the installer to fix this issue. The installer failed with "Jeeze, something went wrong" and instructions for creating an issue.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Be on macOS 11.6.1 (I think).
2. Have nix + home-manager installed.
3. Upgrade to macOS 11.6.2.
4. Check that nix broke. If not, unsure what to do.
5. Run the nix installer.

Expected behavior

For the installer to successfully complete, and fix nix.

nix-env --version output

nix-env is not in $PATH.

Additional context

The log said to include "all the output". I had three runs of the installer, including all of them for completeness but I suspect only the stuff towards the end of the third run is relevant.

It appears that deleting the nix store and then re-running the installer worked. It would be great if this wasn't required, as it is quite a costly operation.
