“cache” build failures, meaning that it will remember (in its

perform the build again. Failures in fixed-output derivations

<para>If build failure caching is enabled through the

operation <option>--clear-failed-paths</option> clears the “failed”
state of the given store paths, allowing them to be built again. This

You can provide the argument <literal>*</literal> to clear all store
paths.</para>
