bug: vscode extensions, some extensions not installing, inconsistent

[j4t1nd3r]

Are you following the right branch?

• My Nixpkgs and Home Manager versions are in sync

Is there an existing issue for this?

{
  description = "nixos flake config";

  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
    nixos-hardware.url = "github:NixOS/nixos-hardware/master";
    home-manager = {
      url = "github:nix-community/home-manager";
      inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
    };
    plasma-manager = {
      url = "github:pjones/plasma-manager";
      inputs = {
        home-manager.follows = "home-manager";
        nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
      };
    };
  };

  outputs = { self, nixpkgs, nixos-hardware, plasma-manager, ... }@inputs:
  let
    system = "x86-64-linux";

    pkgs = import nixpkgs {
      inherit system; 

      config = {
        allowUnfree = true;
      };
    };

    in
    {
    nixosConfigurations = {
      fwk-nixos = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
        specialArgs = { inherit inputs system; };

        modules = [
        ./nixos/configuration.nix
        nixos-hardware.nixosModules.framework-16-7040-amd
        inputs.home-manager.nixosModules.default
        ];
      };
    };
  };
}

home.nix (irrelevant bits removed):

{ config, pkgs, plasma-manager, ... }:

{
  imports = [
    plasma-manager.homeManagerModules.plasma-manager
  ];

  home = {
    username = "jat";
    homeDirectory = "/home/jat";
    stateVersion = "23.11";

    packages = with pkgs; [
      vscode
     ...
    ];

    file = {
      ".config/Code/User/settings.json".source = config.lib.file.mkOutOfStoreSymlink "${config.home.homeDirectory}/nix-fwk-system/configs/vscode-settings.json"; # vscode settings.json
      ...
    };

    sessionVariables = {
      EDITOR = "code";
    };
  };

  # set allowunFree
  nixpkgs = {
    config = {
      allowUnfree = true;
    };
  };

  programs = {
    home-manager.enable = true;
    ...
    vscode = {
      enable = true;
      extensions = with pkgs.vscode-extensions; [
        jdinhlife.gruvbox
        bbenoist.nix
        github.vscode-pull-request-github
      ];
    };
  };
}

I run sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake nix-fwk-system/#fwk-nixos
jdinhlife.gruvbox extension most of the time installs,
bbenoist.nix does not seem to ever install.
github.vscode-pull-request-github rarely does .

I can't figure out why this is the case.

cat ~/.vscode/extensions/extensions.json | jq '.[].identifier.id'
"jdinhlife.gruvbox"
"github.vscode-pull-request-github"

Side branch has extensions set as follows:

vscode = {
      enable = true;
      extensions = with pkgs.vscode-extensions; [
        bbenoist.nix
      ];

I manually uninstall all vscode extensions then run:

rm ~/.vscode/extensions/extensions.json
sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake nix-fwk-system/#fwk-nixos --show-trace && cat ~/.vscode/extensions/extensions.json | jq '.[].identifier.id'
building the system configuration...
activating the configuration...
setting up /etc...
reloading user units for jat...
restarting sysinit-reactivation.target

cat ~/.vscode/extensions/extensions.json
[]

Any ideas or how to trouble shoot? adding --show-trace gives me no new information.

For what it's worth, I'm also seeing this on a mac running nix-darwin with home-manager
