In #358116 we found out that drawin's stdenv lacks grep and breaks libgit2 fork of gitstatus. The change adds gnugrep as a workaround until stdenv is fixed.

In NixOS#358116 we found out that
`drawin`'s `stdenv` lacks `grep` and breaks `libgit2` fork of
`gitstatus`. The change adds `gnugrep` as a workaround until `stdenv` is
fixed.

Per #358116 (comment) I strongly suspect there is some weird Heisenbug causing grep to nondeterministically not end up in the stdenv or store corruption to happen or something, rather than the Python SDK bootstrap change actually affecting that.

Sounds good. Cached poisoned build sounds like thee real issue here. Looks like any derivation change would magically fix the build.

I’m hoping it’s not a recurring problem and the next staging cycle will flush it out. Fingers crossed.
