# Description
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This command attempts to "repair" the store paths specified by
|
2022-12-01 01:57:02 +01:00
|
|
|
[*installables*](./nix.md#installables) by redownloading them using the available
|
2021-01-13 23:27:39 +01:00
|
|
|
substituters. If no substitutes are available, then repair is not
|
|
|
|
possible.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> **Warning**
|
|
|
|
>
|
|
|
|
> During repair, there is a very small time window during which the old
|
|
|
|
> path (if it exists) is moved out of the way and replaced with the new
|
|
|
|
> path. If repair is interrupted in between, then the system may be left
|
|
|
|
> in a broken state (e.g., if the path contains a critical system
|
|
|
|
> component like the GNU C Library).
