Jade Lovelace c897fba787 store: fix null reference from DerivationGoal::waiteeDone
This happened during a PathSubstitutionGoal of a .drv file:

substitution of '/tmp/jade/nix-test/ca/eval-store/store/1lj7lsq5y0f25mfbnq6d3zd0bw5ay33n-dependencies-input-2.drv'

What happened here is that since PathSubstitutionGoal is not a
DerivationGoal, in production builds, the UB was not caught, since it
would early-exit from failing a dynamic_cast to DerivationGoal * on the
very next line, but before the null reference was ever used.

This was nonetheless UB. The fix should be to just rearrange the two
lines; I don't think there is a further bug there, since *substituting a
.drv* **necessarily** means you cannot have the representation of
the derivation as would be necessary for drv to not be null there.

Test failure:

++(eval-store.sh:12) _RR_TRACE_DIR=/home/jade/.local/share/rr rr record -- nix build -f dependencies.nix --eval-store /tmp/jade/nix-test/ca/eval-store/eval-store -o /tmp/jade/nix-test/ca/eval-store/result

Lix

Lix is an implementation of Nix, a powerful package management system for Linux and other Unix systems that makes package management reliable and reproducible.

Read more about us at https://lix.systems.

Installation

On Linux and macOS the easiest way to install Lix is to run the following shell command (as a user other than root):

$ curl -sSf -L https://install.lix.systems/lix | sh -s -- install

For systems that already have a Nix implementation installed, such as NixOS systems, read our install page

Building And Developing

See our Hacking guide in our manual for instruction on how to to set up a development environment and build Lix from source.
